Oh well. I guess we'll just have to make due with Smith, Jeudy, Thomas and Shavers.

Why would a kid from the South want to play in that shite weather? Maybe it's just me, I hate the cold.

He isn't going to Michigan, it's either Bama or Georgia for Collins.

Have long suspected that some of these "reporters" make their picks based on:

1) pleasing their fan base
2) creating click opportunities when they post their accompanying story
3) gig's other schools without even mentioning their name

Auburn, FSU, Michigan and lately Georgia have all seen increased CB's for just about everybody over the past few years.......glad our guys on 247, Scout and Rivals aren't like this

I predict #Alabama hits the 20-commitment mark before the start of the 2016 season. Momentum continues...


2015 class all over again?

Maybe with all the attention Bama is getting from all these other top out of state WRs, Collins thought flirting with Harbaugh might be a way to get more attention from Bama.

The WR screen that he took to the house at the :40 mark on his Junior highlights is some Percy Harvin-type stuff. His first 10 yard speed must be blazing.

He has some plays in his highlight film where he runs the ball. I wonder if he could fill the Drake role when Kenyan was a Junior. We don't really have anyone on the roster with that type of versatility right now. I guess Marks would be the closest we have but he's tiny.

I don't know, but he's a missile. Reminds me of several of those UF WRs and RBs around 2008-09. And it doesn't take any time for him to reach top speed.

Hearing that Thomas will not be committing any time soon, but still remains in play for the Tide.

Now, some rumblings we still may be adding to the class this weekend. My best guess, Zec Bryd (TE)........just a guess though.
