Some Tyler Simmons' tidbits from BOL posters:

quote:

On another site Basically said that Georiga threw everything but the kitchen sink at him this weekend and He's Still Committed To Bama!!! Says the only way he leaves is if Bama starts showing him they don't want him. That's what you call a commitment RTR!


quote:

A poster on the UGA board that said he worked at the university said he was in the gym while the recruits were brought into the gym in groups touring all the facilities. He said Simmons walked in and that he's no more than 5'10 and he didn't look very impressive, then in jeans and casual shoes he picked up a basketball and dunked it. Was impressed after that.

It's from Blake Barnett's Twitter. It's a pic of him about to release the ball and his arm looks rubber.

Did I somehow miss that his brother is a football player? I hope we aren't getting K-Allen'd.



Just his teammate Boss Tagaloa.

Speaking of teammates, guess where Asiasi's QB is walkin on on at

Is it the TCU kid? Bone noted that a TCU committ, a 3-star pass rusher from New Orleans, visited.

Sci Martin, New Orleans



Yes pls.

This kid could be our next Tim Williams. Read this about his Senior sack numbers:

With offers on the table from programs such as TCU, Florida State, LSU, OU, Miami and Arizona State to name a few, Martin was undoubtedly in high demand. Setting a school record with 33.5 sacks on the season, Martin looks like the perfect fit for Gary Patterson's defensive scheme. When you have a sack number that high, it tends to get people's attention.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. We could land all 25 of those if we wanted to. You're either a schtick or dumber than a sack of hammers. I'm not sure which yet.


You have around 10-11 5-Stars on that list there. All of them are flirting with other schools, and there are reports that a lot of them are leaning to other schools besides Bama. So you're sitting there telling me, that they all want to come to Bama, and they are just waiting on Saban to give the thumbs up? You're telling me we're going to end the recruiting cycle by signing ten more 5-stars?

Sweeney doesn't even have a 247 profile.

Here are his Hudl highlights though:

Highlights

He is definitely small. He's listed as 5'9" 160 pounds on MaxPreps.

That's what I'm telling you, Hulk. We're going to get all 10-11 of those 5 stars. They are all privately committed to us and just playing games with those other schools.

So this is what Tim Watts had to say about Raekwon Davis and this whole flip thing (be ready for some straight up WTF):

- BOL believes the reports that he flipped to State are true. They are good friends with the MSU mods and have no reason to doubt them.
- Other sources are telling the staffs at Alabama and Ole Miss that he has not committed to State. These sources are just as strong as the MSU mods so they believe they are telling the truth as well.
- Davis himself told BOL he was still committed to Alabama.
- They are going to watch his actions and ignore his words from now until NSD.
- The staff visited Davis on Friday and has plans to visit him again this week.
- Davis is also scheduled to be in Tuscaloosa for his OV on the 29th and as of last night he still intended to take this trip.
- He is scheduled to take an OV to FSU this weekend, but don't be surprised if he went to Ole Miss instead.

All arms look like that when throwing. Pitchers' arms look even worse than that. Your elbow joint gives when you go through the whip action movement.

Are Wilson and Davis among the privates?

Any RB's?
