I assumed we would get Lockhart as well. The aggies think for whatever reason he's not a priority for them.
You'd think any player on defense that they have a remote chance with would be a priority for them.

Georgia is loading up on former Alabama staffers. They poached Samford WRs coach, and former Alabama support staff member, Ronnie Letson. He will be their director of player personell.
Wasn't Richt one of the coaches that spoke out about the size of support staff?

That's the sort of thing where he is essentially acting as a mouthpiece for the AD which is too cheap to hire a support staff comparable to our peers. Therefore, they want a rule to limit it.
Richt is like any other coach. The more support staff, the better.

He told Ohio State writers he had the Buckeyes behind Alabama.

Looks like he doesn't anymore per Kipp on 247. I think his runner up will change a lot.
Interesting to see UGA not even make the cut.

I think he sticks, I don't see him going to Notre Dame or Stanford, really neither one of them.

Agreed. The "he gone" was a meme from last years recruiting class where several recruits would tell us they were 100% committed right before flipping. It was the kiss of death.

4-star OL Tyler Carr on deciding between Alabama and Auburn: 'It's extremely hard'
Tyler Carr is ready for it all to be over.
For months he eyed an October decision date, but after evaluating his options, he will announce his decision Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. Carr will decide between Alabama and Auburn, two in-state Southeastern Conference schools that have battled for months to land his commitment.
"Both have great coaching staffs and very successful programs," Carr said. "Both schools are obviously very powerful schools, and traditionally very successful. Both have great offensive line coaches and great head coaches.
"It's extremely hard. I really don't think I can go wrong with either school. I've really enjoyed being around both schools...it's extremely hard."
The 6-foot-5, 310-pound offensive lineman from Southside-Gadsden High School visited Alabama the weekend of June 12 for his last unofficial visit before making a decision. Carr got an opportunity to hang out with players and offensive line coach Mario Cristobal, who was recently rated as the nation's top recruiter by ESPN.
"It was great," he said. "I got to hang out with coach Cristobal a lot. He really wishes me the best and hopes I make the best decision for me. He's a really great guy."
Auburn, his father's alma mater, has long been considered the favorite to land the four-star prospect. 95 percent of the Crystal Ball predictions on Carr's 247Sports page have him pegged to Auburn. Carr said that Auburn coaches have reiterated to him that they like his frame and want him on board. The coaches "really just want to see me get up there and do well," according to Carr.
He told AL.com in a previous interview that he was keeping a close eye on the scholarship situation at Auburn and that he could have to move up his decision, which he has now done.
Carr plans to let both coaching staffs know of his decision before he announces it to the public Tuesday morning. He's enjoyed getting to know coaches and learning about the different football programs, but he's ready for the relief of announcing his commitment.
"I'm really excited, but I'm ready to be over with it," he said. "It's been stressful."

Four-star OL Brandon Kennedy says Auburn 'more laid back,' Alabama 'strictly business'
Wetumpka's Brandon Kennedy is expected to make his commitment next month. (247Sports)
Brandon Kennedy has picked up plenty of steam this offseason.
Alabama and Auburn both offered the Wetumpka offensive lineman this month, and he is now beginning to narrow down his list of offers to a few favorites. After his return to Auburn on Saturday, the 6-foot-3, 300-pounder said Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Missouri and Ole Miss make up his top group.
"(Alabama and Auburn) kind of stick out," Kennedy told 247Sports. "Auburn is a little more laid back. Alabama is strictly business - they get things done. That is the big difference between those two programs. I also still like the others though."
He also went into detail about each school and why he could see himself committing to either.
"If I end up at Alabama, I would have to say it would be because of how they develop guys and the type of talent they bring in - like the NFL-caliber guys that have made them successful."
"If I commit to Auburn it will be because they are a family up there," Kennedy said. "They are very together and when I saw their teammates I could see the bond. They have a tradition of family."
Kennedy is being recruited by the Tide as a center or guard, while Auburn has recruited him solely at center to fill the void left by Reese Dismukes.
He is expected to make his commitment by July and is ranked as a four-star prospect and the nation's No. 16 offensive guard prospect in the 247Sports Composite.

I'm kinda getting concerned that we don't have any 2016 commitments yet. Usually we have a few by now.

We got no solid 2015 commits, we got no 2016 commits...

Keaton Anderson is solid IMO. I think everyone else flips and we replace them with marginal two and three star players.
Negative recruiting stacked.
Bama recruiting fricked.
