Daniel Wright on the flip from FSU to Alabama.


I did not realize his older brother is major Wright. Who played for Florida.

Was just watching Tia's highlights. There is no chance his listed 40 time is correct, 247 lists him as 4.9 40. Just watching him I would say like 4.6 or 4.7 at worst

Yep he would be brought down every play within 10 yards of the LOS if he ran a 4.9.

Stranger things have happened but its incomprehensibe to me that Najee would be committed to us for two years and then switch at the last minute. Has that happened to us with Saban? I cannot recall.

Overestimating the quality of football in the state of Hawaii

He ran a 5.11 before, so pairing that with a 4.9 doesn't sound so crazy.

He's probably quicker than he is fast, and/or sometimes high schoolers don't really train for stuff like 40 yard dashes. Technique can make or break you if you are not naturally fast.

Unless something changes Thomas is going to Illinois, however (Jeff) Thomas did love Alabama and then like Mizzou so we will see what happens. He still has those visits.

The domestic violence case against former Georgia and Alabama football player Jonathan Taylor was resolved earlier this month, as the defensive lineman plead guilty to misdemeanor counts of simple assault, battery and simple battery, according to documents in Athens-Clarke County Superior Court.

Taylor was sentenced to 36 months probation, fined $1,000, ordered to complete 100 hours of community service, undergo an anger management program and must have no contact with the victim.


LINK Still Saban's biggest mistake IMO.

Lots of eyeballs on 4-star safety DeAngelo Gibbs this week. A decision hasn't been made just yet, he said

Wright article:

quote:

“I’m going to make that impact at Alabama,” Wright said. “There are no ifs ands or buts about it. I’m going to come in to work and build my craft to where I need to be. With the influence of all the coaches I have — Saban, Ansley and Cristobal — is going to help me out a lot.

“I have — probably — a 100 percent chance of going there early and making an impact my freshman year. The opportunity I have is great.”


I just hope he isn't setting himself up for disappointment a la Sheffield.

From Chad Simmons:
Alabama 4-star LB commit Markell Benton just said he thinks 5 star DeAngelo Gibbs will pick Alabama this weekend.... He said Bama has a “good” chance. It is down to Bama and Georgia most people believe.


Pls be right.
