It'll come from this group, but I don't know how many we will land. I think we have room for 6-7 of them. Maybe 8 if Brannon takes a GS or BS.
LaBryan Ray
Henry Ruggs
Devonta Smith
Jarez Parks
Aubrey Solomon
Phidarian Mathis
Todd Harris
Chris Henderson
Yep. If Dean flips, Byers is sign & place, and Brannon greyshirts, we're at 22. If we get all 8 of those that would make 30. Harris seems to be toughest one to land.

Devonta Smith
Alabama has been considered the favorite for quite some time now here, so is this just the visit for the Crimson Tide to close the deal with Devonta Smith? LSU has made a big push and Miami will host him next weekend, but Alabama still seems to be in a great spot here.
quote:
LaBryan Ray
Does anyone really have a chance here against Alabama for LaBryan Ray? The Crimson Tide will be very tough to beat in this race. Ray is a top in-state prospect, he is an elite defensive lineman and he is very familiar with how things work in Tuscaloosa (Ala.).
quote:
Chris Allen
Should Alabama be worried here a little? Chris Allen lives in Baton Rouge (La.), LSU had him on campus for an official visit last weekend, two of his teammates are committed to LSU, and there is some chatter that the Tigers have made up some ground. Alabama hopes to take that momentum back this weekend, so this is a crucial visit despite Allen already being committed to the Crimson Tide.
quote:
Henry Ruggs
Another Scout 100 prospect in Alabama that the Crimson Tide has been trending for, for a long time is receiver Henry Ruggs. Auburn, Florida and some others continue to hang around, but Ruggs could end up seeing all he needs to see this weekend to close out his recruitment.
quote:
Todd Harris
This is a tight race for Todd Harris. LSU may be considered the slight favorite, but Alabama is in this, and you cannot sleep on TCU. Arizona State has received a visit as well. Over the summer, Alabama took a big step in this race, so lets see how things shake out this weekend. The Tide may be trailing the Tigers entering this visit.
quote:
Phidarian Mathis
Another top Louisiana prospect visiting Alabama is Phidarian Mathis. It is very common this weekend and Mathis is another one who is pretty much down to Alabama and LSU. It has been a tight race for some time now, and a race that still could go either way. It seems a little momentum may be with the in-state Tigers, but expect the Crimson Tide to push hard for this one this weekend.

Significant Mover:
Montgomery (Ala.) Lee wide receiver Henry Ruggs was extremely impressive as senior and he capped off his senior year with one of the best performances in San Antonio (Texas) as an Army All-American. Ruggs is an explosive athlete who is down to Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Florida State and Penn State. He is still raw in some areas, but he has speed, he creates separation and he can make big plays. He moved into the Scout 100 and he is now the South's No. 6 wide receiver.

I went from not wanting Moses, to now enjoying his subtle troll game. I'm glad we have him.

He's been saying Chris Allen would be his roommate since Allen committed. I hope he's right.

The other seven early enrollees are four-star wide receiver Tyrell Shavers, four-star junior college defensive lineman Isaiah Buggs, four-star JUCO offensive tackle Elliot Baker, four-star athlete Chadarius Townsend, four star tight end Major Tennison, three-star defensive back Kyriq McDonald and long snapper Thomas Fletcher.

So the Big 12 has less strict academic requirements than the SEC? Nice to know.

LSU just picked up a WR.
They are conceding Devonta Smith.
ETA: Well it only took two pages in the McMath thread for a fricking moron to show up:

I'm glad we got this kid instead of Smith, that kid seems like a primadonna, and McMath has much better size for the WR position.

Bama's chances with Hunter were vastly decreased when they jettisoned Jaquan Yulee last year because of grades...
