Hope it doesn't hurt Bama with Ruggs and Smith.

Might help ASU with their recruits. Doubt it affects us with ours. We'll easily have a great replacement.

Napier is a good recruiter. Don't underestimate how this affects us with some recruits.

Any chance we can get Pettito on the field? That would help us with some future Louisiana studs.

Petito coming to Bama from UGA triggered Devonta Smith to decommit from UGA. LINK

On field position might be a good move but I trust Saban to do what he thinks is best. It will be a recruiter for sure.

Losing Mario and Napier is a pretty big shot to our recruiting.

So who do we want as our new WR coach?

I nominate Clemson WR coach Jeff Scott. We all know first hand what he can do with WRs, but look at the kids he has brought in as a recruiter:

Shurburtt has been in the business for a long, long time.

We know Solomon said he was going to let staffs know this weekend. Perhaps JC heard something.

Ok gotcha yea that would make sense.

On another note, why couldn't Napier wait until after signing day to leak this out.... seriously.

Word on the street is that Alabama has known about Napier to ASU since Wednesday.
