re: Class of 2016 Recruiting MEGATHREAD: Waiting On Demetris Robertson Edition

We haven't even offered Tate and to be honest I'd rather land Woody Barrett.

Not that I put too much stock in profiles but his says that he ran the 40 in 4.99.

New DE offer out today:

Oluwole Betiku Highlights

Second one is Asante Samuel's son:

CB Asante Samuel Jr.

Like how Denzel Mitchell was formerly overrated, I feel the same about Miller as a RB/FB. Both might be better playing defense.

There are better backs instate, and Bama has treated the former 2 as such...

So I guess we have targeted Woody Barrett as our QB in this class. I'm happy with that decision but it will probably cost us Stephon Diggs due to his friendship with Haskins.

I like Haskins and Barrett more than Pass. They don't have his measurables, but they have better mechanics. Barrett has the strongest arm of the trio.

Pass says we are #3 behind Auburn and Louisville.

We still lead for Jaquan Yulee.

CHESAPEAKE, Va. -- Last month, Jaquan Yulee named Alabama as his leader. The Crimson Tide are still on top for the four-star Indian River middle linebacker.

”Alabama is still my top school,” said Jaquan Yulee. “They’re my top school because of the combination of academics and football. Both are great. Everyone treats me like family down there, too.

The Crimson Tide are showing a lot of interest in Yulee and he is grateful.
”It means a lot to know that one of the best programs in the country wants me to play for them,” said the 6-foot-2, 240-pound Yulee.

Analysis: Yulee is the prototypical middle linebacker. He has a great combination of size, speed and strength. He runs extremely well and has great instincts. He plays sideline to sideline and is a very physical. Overall, he is one of the best linebacker prospects I have seen. -- Michael Clark

Alabama was actually his most recent visit.

”The visit was amazing and the campus was beautiful,” Yulee said. “I also really like the coaches. They treat their players very well.

"It also really meant a lot to me that coach (Nick) Saban sat down and talked with me one-on-one.”

The Indian River linebacker has been in constant contact with outside linebackers coach Tosh Lupoi, who is recruiting him for the Crimson Tide.

”I call him about four times a week,” Yulee said. “He’s a really cool guy and he knows how to relate with players. He’s also always honest with me.”
Yulee will make a return trip to Tuscaloosa on May 30.

”I’m taking my grandmom down there this time, so I want her to get a chance to see everything,” he said. “I’m also looking forward to coach (Nick) Saban again and hanging out with the coaches.”

He will make some major decisions this summer
”I’m going to try to cut it to five before I leave for The Opening (July 7-10),” Yulee said.

As far as a decision, Yulee said he will likely commit during football season or on signing day.
