Also does it appear we will likely flip Greg little to you guys?


I dont think anyone can say likely, maybe possibly, but yea there is def a chance. He seems to be genuinely considering options.

Could be wrong but I think Cole is a LB all day.

I believe we still have a shot here. Less than 50 percent, but better than a puncher's chance.

If not Little, I believe the pecking order at this moment (changes often) is 1)Kellen Diesch 2)Jean Delange 3)Landon Young 4)Jauan Williams.

Yes. LB against Spread teams in mold of Holcombe, Keaton Anderson, etc. And I don't make those comparisons because they're white. Those just happen to be the "Spread-buster" hybrid LBs we've signed in recent classes.

I should add that we might get back in the mix for EJ Price, but I believe off the field issues and work ethic is an issue.

Jones would be able to enroll this Summer if we were to offer and he accepted.

He would be eligible to play this season.

I'd rather take him than Buie to be honest. He would give us depth for two years instead of one.

I feel the same, he has speed and his film looks great. He would thrive in Bama's offense.

Had a talk with my coach & I've decided to push my commitment date back to a later date... So this week is a no go!

I assume he's waiting to see if he has a spot with us before announcing for State.

This LB class is difficult to figure out. I know we need a complete makeover of ILB, but someone needs to play OLB from a numbers standpoint.

If we get Dontavious Jackson, I'd say its highly unlikely Erroll Thompson has a spot.

What's sad is that Miss St. signed as many players from Alabama last year as we did.

Actually more than Alabama and as many as Auburn.

According to BOL, Saban will evaluate Juco RB Deshawn Jones as far as transcripts, etc, goes on Tuesday. If Saban offers, Jones will commit.

Davis is being recruited as a Sam backer (OLB).

Mack has been recruited as an ILB. That could change if we're landing both Yulee and DJack, though. He's flexible enough to play basically any LB position.

Highlights from him in HS: LINK

He ran out of an I formation

Like his vision looks the same as the other preferred walk-on from Blount HS with top end speed lacking a good bruiser looks like

I see both Mack and Wilson this way...like in a Tampa Cover 2 with 4 down and 3 backers a guy like Lavonte David for TB would be one of if not the best ILB's in a 3 man 4 LB front. That's how I see Mack as a ranging coverage LB. Wilson is a little more tailored to outside at his size but both guys are extremely versatile LBs
