3. Kardell Thomas, 5-star OG (6-foot-3, 356 pounds); LSU commitment

Kardell Thomas is a mauler on the offensive line. That’s been the case since he was a true freshman and he has only improved with more experience and added strength. Thomas easily clears a path for his running backs and has effectively distinguished himself as not only the top offensive line prospect in the state in recent memory, but the No. 1 prospect at his position in his respective recruiting class.

2. Derek Stingley Jr., 4-star CB (6-foot-1, 185 pounds); uncommitted

A student of the game, Derek Stingley Jr. is as technically proficient a cornerback in the state as there has been in years. Midway through his junior campaign, the 4-star Baton Rouge native possesses a high football IQ and even better feel for the game. Stingley thrives in both man or zone coverages, and in the latter, has a great sense of anticipation for the play and elite acceleration to jump routes. That’s been the case a few times already this fall. He’s a home-run threat as a defensive back, receiver or return specialist.

1. Ishmael Sopsher, 5-star DL (6-foot-5, 282 pounds); uncommitted

Ishmael Sopsher is already locked in as the No. 2 overall prospect in the country for the 2019 class. His tape reveals why. The two-time All-State selection as a freshman and sophomore has yet to meet an offensive lineman who can contain him. At 6-foot-5 and 282 pounds, he has elite strength and incredible quickness to either bull-rush linemen or beat them around the edge. He’s absurdly athletic for his size and is a sure tackler. Sopsher can play multiple positions across a defensive line but is best suited as a true 3-4 defensive end or a rush-tackle in a four-man front. There are few who are as well-rounded as Sopsher.

So this is how you get your post count up... break up articles into multiple posts.

I try to give each individual kid their own space.

Most of us have some form of ADD/ADHD/OCD that breaking it up keeps people from missing stuff.

Bobby Brown's open period at school begins now. He has 45 minutes to make his announcement. There is no specific time for it.

No one seems to know. Only a couple of crystal ball predictions have rolled in.

So Bama will have missed on 2 top DL recruits in the last month in a historically weak DL class. Bama will return like 2 true DT next year, not going to be good.

45 minutes for a break is bull shite. I remember when I was in school, I had like 2 main classes a semester we focused on from 8 am to 11 am. 1.5 hours each. Then had an hour lunch break. Then had some bull shite art class or something. Then weight training for football and baseball started around 1:30.

Alabama returns guys to build around. And will have to sign more JuCos than expected. Maybe take Cunningham or Love from in-state to develop.

Dude. Calm down and step away from the ledge. We are recruiting multiple JUCO DL’s, more than just coynis Miller and Bobby Brown, and also there will be kids who break out this year. Don’t forget we can flip people like we do a lot.

We could flip miller and brown (if he doesn’t come today) or If sumlin and malzahn get canned there’s an even better chance.

That’s his second or third visit this year. Isn’t it? But LSU did just offer.

Can you imagine a few of the people on this board when Saban retires? They may literally end their lives when that happens.
