Still think we have a great shot with him. There’s no reason to move on.

Brown just seems like he wants to stay home. Might be time to move on.

Some said the same when he committed to ATM. Not everyone is going to sign early. Some are still undecided, for various reasons.

We need a DL coach that can close these type kids that are either prima donnas are just extremity wishy washy. I don’t think Dunbar is that guy.

Edit: and yes I know we don’t assign coaches to recruits based on position, but don’t tell me the position coach doesn’t have an impact.

Could snag Brick Haley

He coached DL at LSU 2009-14. How good is he as a DL coach and recruiter?

And when Alabama closes on Brown in February? What will the mantra be? Dunbar is an excellent DL coach. He can improve as a recruiter.

Bo Davis wasn’t exactly the savior he’s been billed as during his first tenure at Alabama. I think he improved greatly while at Texas.

Brick is a very good recruiter, and a good DL Coach.

LSU fans talk shite about him because they're LSU fans

Well, Dunbar may be wanting to go back to the NFL next year so this could be a mute point.

Saban needs to hire some ace recruiters and closers badly. This is the weakest recruiting staff we’ve had in the Saban era, especially with Pruitt gone.

Adversity in T-Town.....Nick just might release a coach or two once this season is actually over. JMO but Nick will coach three more years after this season.

I say instead of focusing on Brown the staff should go after Ojomo. His film is better anyways.

I doubt the staff has all its eggs in any one basket.

We'll keep going for Bown, but I would like to see a Bama offer and OV date for Mojo.

Someone asked could Bobby Brown commit today and Chris Kirschner said this:

It's possible. He told me something serious came up and he may not be able to

A Texas A&M mod mentioned “character issues” yesterday. Is it related to that?
