We also offered a 3* QB a preferred walk-on spot Brock Purdy Hudl

I know level of competition has something to do with it, but I like his highlights more than Jones and Foster.



I'm late on this, but according to his highlight reel these are his stats for his Senior season:

4,405 yards passing with 57 touchdowns
1,017 yards rushing with 10 touchdowns

How the hell does a kid with numbers like that hold zero Power 5 offers?

I'm actually gonna watch his film now.

Robinson was pretty athletic. Did you not see him jump over the LSU OL and block a extra point?

White boy can move. He's not the biggest guy, but he looks like he would provide a challenge for our starters on the scout team.

I'm not anticipating the QB we get this year will start anytime soon anyway.

I just finished watching Purdy's film and while he doesn't have the strongest arm (above average at best), he is a very aware QB. He keeps his eyes down field in the face of pressure and appears to be pretty accurate.

He's not exactly small either. His profile says he is 6'1" 197 pounds. He's probably closer to 6' 185 pounds, but he has moxie.

I'd rather take him than Emory Jones like chatta said last night.

ETA: Watched them again and upgraded my assessment of his arm strength.

I'm sure some pre-planning was established before Saban and Tosh got on the plane.

As to the mother question I have no idea.

This early signing period has everyone doing something for the first time.

So how did Nick Saban’s in-home visit with #Rivals100 OL Penei Sewell go on Wednesday? “It was like the President of the United States was coming in town.”

Not that it matters to us much, but Huffman DT Allen Love committed to Louisville today.

An insider on BOL, not Cox's coach, is adamant we get him FWIW.

I'm not buying it though. I trust AmericusDawg on this one. It's too bad he is scared to post here.

HATTIESBURG, Miss -- There was plenty of recruiting news to be had at the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star game, but conjecture is more fun than news. It’s why we asked a number of players at the event to predict where some of their highest ranked peers may land next season. Below, are the responses we got when we gave prospects the chance to predict their teammates’ college futures.

The problem with that pic is that Kirby can show him the exact same ring.

Any chance Ruggs can play safety?
