Anyone who have or had a Rivals account, is it worth it?

I had one. Until BOL switched to 247. 
I like Rivals, but don't want to pay for two subscriptions. The beauty of it though is they post their national camp articles for free so I don't have to have one to read those.

Yeah I have BOL, but was wondering how the content was on Rivals. I really don't want to pay for 2 as well

Ryan Bartow on Alex Leatherwood:

Just talked to five-star Alabama offensive tackle commit Alex Leatherwood.
He said he's doing five official visits including to Alabama for the Iron Bowl, Michigan and USC. He's not sure of the other two. Mentioned visits to Miami, Florida and LSU for later this summer.
Stated Florida is No. 2 and USC is 3 behind Alabama

Yes and no.
I think they are better at streaming info from time to time.
Andrew Bone is a love/hate thing. He definitely gave TideSports a shot in the arm when he came over. I just felt he too often blew smoke and covered his arse with ifs and buts when something was proven wrong.

Here are some Opening observations:

4-star WR Nico Collins has a great frame. Big, long. But is unpolished right now. Not great in routes. He is getting lots of coaching -- and appears to be listening. He will get better as week progresses.

One piece of good news I picked up today. Terrell Hall is being started at DE, and not Jack LB. Already about 260, and expected to be 280 by next year. That could help out a lot for our DL over the next couple years.

Tua looks sharp early. Throwing very catchable passes. A few receivers having trouble early.

Haven't heard anything new on him. Expected to report late this month or early August in time for Fall camp. Raekwon is still a question as to his eligibility. His situation is being appealed (on whether eligible to play this year or not until next) and is thought to be about 50/50. Based on what Rodney Orr and redfish have said about it, it sounds like he'll be able to practice with us regardless, and the only question is whether he's eligible to play or not. That's what I've gathered (if I've interpreted correctly).

According to OC Cesar Ruiz himself, we now lead for him over Michigan. 247 now list Bama as the favorite.

Believe this to be a "ruse" to give the appearance that CJH "steals" another from Saban. Pretty much every site has said that we weren't in the market for a center this year. Now, Saban may have a different thought, that is just my opinion to give Michigan a "boost" in recruiting. Practically everything else they do is meant to seem that they are "taking" players away from the SEC.

Hank just said he was told Ruiz is absolutely a take
Posted on 7/7/16 at 8:42 pm to Rizzy
Oh I believe he's a take.......IF he decided to go to Bama. But l'd just about bet my left testicle that he doesn't end up at Bama, and Michigan folks will holler "We took him from the great Nick Saban"
Can only wait and watch..........there's gamesmanship in recruiting, and Michigan can get PR out of this. Since coaches can't say anything about recruits, the true staff "feelings" are never known. That's why you can see an Alabama hat on practically every table yet many have no committable offer. Talked to two different sources tonight who both said Bama wasn't recruiting him as hard as he portrays.

Yeah because I've never seen anything about Ruiz being connected to Bama, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.
