I can see that.

I think Brent Key just has a different take on OL prospects. Some influence from Daboll too?

Sewell is great but that Florida guy Nicholas Petit-Frere is fantastic.I would want him before anyone else just going by his highlight video alone.Reminded me so much of Jonah Williams.

Carvin is the odd man out if Bell is a take. IMO.

Will be an odd OL class. But the in-state OL class for 2019 is all-World. And Alabama can expect to take them all.

Probably so. In any case, we're loaded with OL talent for the foreseeable future.

I also wonder if we might take one more guy (instead of the listed number of 22 from most people) since we're now unexpectedly UNDER the 85 limit. I wonder if we take 23 (plus the 3 blueshirts) now. Maybe even 24 if you count the TE (Parker) that we might blueshirt to count toward next year. So that might mean we sign one more OL than we'd planned. Although I'd rather it be one more DL or DB.

Dang. Just saw this. Thanks for the invite, but at 3:30 I was probably waiting in line to ride a roller coaster.

I really like Parker at TE if we miss on Ford.

Auburn ends up with Joiner at RB if/when we get Asa Martin...

Martin played at IMG because he was very good to elite. So I'll take him.

Well the staff wants Martin, so I guess him. Our track record at RB is so good so whoever they like is good with me.

Also, Joiner seems to change his mind every fricking week about who he likes, etc. Take that shite somewhere else haha.

Eh. The wishy washiness is annoying. But if he somehow blows up his senior year (ala Yeldon) I'd gladly have him. The only reason I don't want him is because he doesn't look like an SEC running back (in terms of ability, not body). If he blows up, all would be forgiven quickly in my book.

Would we take 2 running backs? If that 5 star that committed to UGA wanted to flip to Bama i'm sure they would take him haha.

Yeah. I've heard we would only take two if Martin and Zamir White both wanted to come. Also heard that White is far from over. But that's the norm these days.

I'm cool taking a couple of camp standouts that are ranked low. But for Pete's sake can we mix in a 5-star or two as well? This is starting to feel like a good Mike Shula class...
