Yes!

Now get that Joseph kid to commit and we working with something. I don't care how many stars that kid has.

He is a missile. Reads the game very well and is very quick. He'll put on the weight and be a monster. If he was 15 pounds heavier he'd be a five-star.

According to Hank South:
quote:

Just an extra note on this -- I spoke with Jaquan's father yesterday. He told me they didn't like that Alabama was continuing to purse inside linebackers, and that they were under the impression Yulee would be the only guy taken at the position. His father also told me they had not heard much from the Bama staff as of late, all the while UNC and other SEC schools were showing increasing interest.

He already transferred high schools here once for grade issues. Seems like a good kid, but I'm not sure he has worked out maturity issues. Grew up without a Mom, just Dad raised him.

Glad he decommitted. Seems like a decent kid and player, but I just felt he was too stiff and would end up bigger too big a linebacker.

I was hoping for a Mirquez (sp?) or the kid out of Texas, but the Vosean kid seems to be a heck of a player. Very instinctual, quick, lean.. all great traits for the kind of defense Saban is running now.

So is Vosean Joseph in play at this point?

Depends on how his official goes on the 15th, hard to be a major player for a guy who has never been on campus less than a month from NSD.

He wants to be recruited, but he's been committed to UF a while.

Now if Randy Shannon decides to coach LBs elsewhere...

Mount Holly (N.C.) Mount Island Charter


This is why most recruiting sites are useless. The kid never played there.

He played his first 3 years at Southlake Christian Academy where his father was on the staff as well. Back in February he moved to Conn. to live with his mother after some type of falling out with his father. It sounds like some shady stuff going on with his father controlling the recruiting. The father even hacked his twitter account.

His father became the HC at Mountain Island and some think he got the job because he promised to get his son and nephew to both transfer there. Robert Jr moved backed to the area and is living with his pastor from his church. He played at E Gaston HS this fall. The reason he did not play the whole season was as he was getting ready to start in August for EGHS some information got leaked that he was practicing with Mountain Island and he was not cleared to play by the district and the state until they could investigate. Most in that area believe it was his father that leaked it because he was mad he did not enroll at MICS.

His father is not only a coach but a self proclaimed mentor. His cousin is going to Cuse this year and maybe his other cousin next year. Many in the area see his father as the next Otis the Pimp in NC. Even a few weeks ago he was trying to reach out to his son via twitter and his son still has him blocked.

A lot of rumors he is trying to do what Otis did and use these kids to position himself for a coaching job in college. By the way his father talks about his close relationship with Luper.

Will he qualify? Didn't he miss a semester of classes because he was homeless?


He should have no issue for qualifying. Before this season he was trying to find a HS that would let him graduate in December and be an EE.

If Tucker leaves for UGA, would that put Pruitt with dbs and would we make a run at Shannon?

Seems logical to hire a ILB coach, but I know there's been talk after a Niger Warrior interview that they might hire a DB coach.

The hire has probably been made already, just waiting til after Monday to announce. Same as with Mel Tucker to UGA and likely Tosh Lupoi's new "title" to go with his pay increase.

Someone on BOL seems to believe it won't be a popular hire, but good with recruiting...
