Sounds good to me.

I don't think Nadab Joseph or Saivion Smith are true corners anyway. We need another one to pair with Jalyn Armour-Davis.

ETA: Josh Jobe isn't a true corner either.

I thought JAD was being recruited for the Star position and Smith and Joseph as corners?

A dude on BOL who knows Josh Jobe's coach up in Connecticut says he will sign with Alabama on the 21st after traveling to his brother's place in California.

As always, TIFWIW.

Watch Joseph's film. He looks more like a Safety.

I don't think Smith is fast enough to play on the outside.

JAD has track speed. He won a state title in the 100m last year.

If J. Pruitt didn’t like IT Stuart why did he offer him as soon as he got the job Tennessee? Maybe others were up the board but I’m sure Pruitt likes Stuart.

He probably knows the guys he had higher on the board are not going to UT.

He very well may be. He doesn't have any JUCO film out there as far as I can tell.

He wasn't the fastest guy coming out of high school. I believe he ran in the 4.6s.

ETA: I see at least two people aren't happy with my assessment.

I think if we can close with Jobe and Stuart. We would have a great DB class. We’re not getting Sutain Jr. And I doubt T Campbell hadn’t been mentioned in a while.

Almost.

We still need to paint in the living room and our dining table stuff is still in the process of being made, but we've got pretty much everything else situated.

Where is there to grab a drink in Prattville?

We've tried out a lot of the restaurants here, but haven't really had time to go bar hopping.

It's looking like we'll get Jobe. Stuart is the #2-ranked CB per 247. He's from San Diego and 78% of the CBs are for USC, so it looks like a tough pull at this point.

Stuart doesn't strike me as the type of kid that will sign with USC. He seems to want out of California. I mean, he said his Top 2 was Alabama and A&M before Sumlin was fired.

It could be a ruse though.

Haven't followed recruiting at all until I looked at this thread today. What I've heard is that this is a pretty down year for us in recruiting. What I see on 247 rankings is that we are rated #9 right now with 14 commits and have the third highest average after Ohio State and Texas.

What is the feeling on how this class is shaping up? I'm not worried if we "only" end up with a top 10 class but are we getting the guys we want at the positions we need?

Who the the top 5 guys we need to get to finish how we want?

Tosh can convince him to head to Bama.

Why hasn't Tosh been named DC yet? Doesn't this need to be wrapped up before the 20th?
