Bama mods were just drinking the kool-aid. Surtain has been and will always be a LSU lock.

The question is who are the sources in the Surtain recruitment? If L7U mods are saying his family is saying them who the hell are our mods speaking with lol.

That's a NOLA.com/Times-Picayune article. Patrick Surtain, Jr. has some extended family in LA, who may be the family sources for that article. Also, there's no guarantee that recruits, their parents, HS coaches and undisclosed "sources" are being totally open with everyone who asks them about where things stand.

Interesting situation getting Brevin White to come in for a last minute visit. Wonder what that means for Purdy. We are in the mix for quite a few players still. Making my head hurt how we will fit everyone.

You sure are one 'negative' bama fan.

I hate that 247 VIPed their Chrystal Balls. Does anyone know who the 2 recent CB's for Jacob Copeland went to?

Florida.

We're landing Waddle and Ross so Copeland doesn't have a spot.

I know the ESPN rankings aren't highly thought of by some. But Xavier Williams is now 26 in the country in their rankings. That would be a 5 star on most other sites. Somebody must really see something in him. It seems like in the hype of other receivers and the fact that he's been committed so long he has sort of been overlooked. Do you guys think he lands on offense of defense? Any player comparisons you would offer?

Purdy is our top QB target. White is likely a backup target if Purdy chooses another option.

Yea he's very overlooked. Seems like we will be taking 4 WR's which surprises me and they will all more than likely be studs. Offense will be serious

Williams has the elite ability to get open and absolutely abuses DBs in coverage.

He also has the hands of a 6 year old girl who just covered her hands in KY jelly.

Too early to tell whether he ends up on offense or defense. Fwiw, he said Bama coaches are going to let him choose. Reality, it'll ultimately be what's best for him and the team.
