If he commits, I bet it will be a silent commitment. I don't imagine he will cancel his commitment ceremony to just commit on Twitter.

I haven't seen anything mentioned in the OM recruiting thread FWIW.

Hope it's nothing. If we get him on campus for the last visit, I like our chances.

I wonder if Little has a good relationship with the oline coach. If the fans get their way, it looks like their oline coach could potentially get canned after this season.

Of course, we could lose our oline coach to Miami as well, so

Cristobal isn't going anywhere near Miami until they change their administration. He can't stand their admin.

I could be wrong, but I thought Calvin turned 21 this November, if he was already 21, he would not have been eligible his junior season of HS also, as he would have been 19.

Better there then AU, he seems to have little interest in us, and seems to have been to AU a ton.

Cavin is already 19. He'll be 20 by the time he's a Freshman in college.

ETA: Cavin turned 18 before August 19, 2014, when the story below was posted about Calvin. Here's the quote about the younger Ridley:

Fortunately for Cavin Ridley, a junior who recently turned 18, he will be eligible to play all of his senior season next fall.

Someone on another site posted that Greg Little might be committing somewhere BEFORE he takes his OV to Bama. If true, that doesn't sound good. Anybody hearing anything?


How does that not sound good? He commits to Alabama, then comes on his scheduled OV as a commitment, while also being the only kid on campus getting the all-star treatment.

Did not know that. That family is all about holding their foster kids back in school.

Why the heck would he commit to us before visiting? (Since he's visiting Ole Miss next weekend). Any way you look at that, it doesn't sound too good. But then again, we don't know if that's true.

I've added a quote and a timeline to the post above regarding Cavin's age, but the Ridley's age issues are due to their family being Cuban immigrants, not being held back.

I can't find the story now, but last year when we were recruiting Calvin I read a piece on them where it stated they were lost at sea for a significant amount of time during their trip from Cuba to the US. They started school in the States late because of it.

Hank South posted 6 hours ago that he had talked to Najee Harris' mother and they have tentative plans to be in Tuscaloosa Saturday for the Tennessee game.

He emphasized that the trip has not been confirmed yet, but they are working on getting the logistics planned out.

Did Greg Little not say he wanted to commit on his birthday Nov 4th?
