Xavier Kelly commits to Clemson. So much for it being within driving distance of his mom.

Some info that most recruits will want to know.....

Alabama will offer $5,386 to out-of-state players and $4,172 to in-state players. UA's out-of-state stipend for 2015-16 is the third-highest total among SEC schools, trailing only Tennessee ($5,666) and Auburn ($5,586).

It just got real. Billy Napier gives 4*RB Jordan Stephenson a follow. Stephenson was denied access to Wisconsin.

Jordan Stevenson. Think we make a run to sign this guy? Didn't get into Wisconsin and we are going to contact him. Would be crazy if he played against Wisconsin game 1.

Running back Jordan Stevenson (Dallas/South Oak Cliff) said Wisconsin told him he’s expected to receive his release around 2:30 p.m. CST from his National Letter of Intent. Wisconsin denied the four-star running back admissions yesterday, as first-reported by 247Sports.com.

According to sources, schools interested in Stevenson once he's granted his release include Alabama, Miami, Nebraska, South Carolina, Maryland, Louisville, West Virginia, Tennessee, Florida, SMU, Oregon State, Pitt, Arkansas, Michigan and Oklahoma State.

Stevenson said he hopes to talk to all interested parties “over the next 24 hours.”

He said he ideally would like to make his college choice later this weekend and enroll early next week.

As a senior, Stevenson rushed for 2,530 yards and 28 touchdowns.

As a junior, Stevenson rushed for 2,020 yards and 17 touchdowns.

The four-star recruit was ranked as the nation’s No. 17 running back and the No. 30 prospect in Texas in the 2016 247Sports.com Composite Rankings.

And why wouldn't we? Assuming Henry and Drake are going to be used at the same time, Harris is the only back I believe that can be considered a true "back up."

I understand that Bo is ahead of schedule (I'll believe he's good to go when I see him in pads and a non-black jersey), but once Henry and Drake jump we're fairly thin. He'd be just as experienced as any of our other backs going into next year.

Do it kid.

Former Wisconsin signee Jordan Stevenson, who was denied admission to the University of Wisconsin, is back on the market after receiving a release from the Badgers on Friday.

In less than 45 minutes after receiving his release, Stevenson spoke with coaches from nine different college programs, including Oregon State, Nebraska, Louisville, Indiana, Pittsburgh, Texas Tech, Florida, Alabama and Tennessee.

Of the group, Stevenson said that three schools "stick out" early- those are the Beavers, Huskers and Vols.

-Stevenson had a previous relationship with Oregon State head coach Gary Andersen, who was formally the head coach at Wisconsin and accepted the four-star running backs original commitment to the Badgers. He also likes that Oregon State runs a spread offense.

-Nebraska could be considered the very early "leader in the clubhouse" because of the Huskers' depth chart. Stevenson is scheduled to speak with head coach Mike Riley tonight via phone.

-The Crimson Tide's depth chart at running back is not working in their favor, but Stevenson said that Alabama recruiter Billy Napier communicated to him that the Tide could lose both Derrick Henry and Kenyan Drake to the NFL Draft following this season, essentially gutting the depth at that position. Stevenson is set to speak with Tide head coach Nick Saban tonight.
-Stevenson also could possibly communicate with coaches from Miami (Fla.) and Michigan this evening.

The 5-foot-8, 210-pound Stevenson, from South Oak Cliff High in Dallas, Texas, was the No. 17 running back prospect in the 2015 cycle per 247Sports Composite rankings.

The kid must not have much confident in himself. Our depth chart is as crackable as just about any good school.

Yeah wtf? He'd theoretically have just as much experience as the next RB in 2016
