I'm still hoping we don't take a QB. Really want to be able to take 3 of the DBs. We can only do that with no QB. Well, the only scenario would be if we lost out on NPF. And of course we're going to sign a future 1st round draft pick OT if we can sign him.

When and where did Drew say we wouldn't sign ITS? Because as of a couple hours ago, someone who Drew knows very well (and gets some info from occasionally) thought it was looking good for ITS.

He also says we're more likely to sign Campbell and Griffin. Someone with more credibility thinks he isn't very well informed on the DB situations.


Drew may be misinformed on the DB situation (though, I don't know for sure yet... he could be right). But generally, let me assure you, he's VERY well connected. I actually know him personally. He's very well informed.

If he winds up being wrong on this (not saying he will be), don't knock his credibility. He'll be right more often than not.

He hasn't said we would get Campbell. He just said that he thought we still had a decent shot. Orr has said the same. Orr said he'd bet on UGa, but that we are still in it a lot more than is being discussed.

I love Drew, but sometime he can be wrong... Everything I've read suggest we will take ITS.

I agree with this. Drew is well-connected. Very good man as well.

Will the QB that committed to Princeton (BW) take a scholly spot? I assumed since he was going there that he had means to pay his way. Maybe Saban thinks he can get him without using a scholly. Dunno but would be a coup if he could.

Per 247, Bama has offered Brevin White a scholarship.

Taking a QB that will probably never play in this class sucks. Who gets left out? One of the stud receivers? Langham? A stud OL? A DB that Bama needs for depth?

I hate it as well but we need to have three QBs on roster. I just don't see Jalen sticking around. Hell I wouldn't.

8 (maybe 9) spots left:
2 DL - Brown & Langham
1 OL - Petit-Frere or Sewell
2 DB - PS2, ITS, Smith or Irvin
2 WR - Ross, Waddle or Copeland
1 LB - Walker
1 QB - White, Purdy or Foster
