Primer: Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game

quote:

The 32nd annual Alabama-Mississippi All-Star game is star studded, headlined by several Top247 prospects and 22 players who hold a grade of at least four-stars or better on the initial roster.

Each team arrives in Montgomery, Ala. on Wednesday with the game set for Monday Dec. 17. at 6:30 p.m. (CST)

Here is a checklist of items to keep an eye on.

The headliner

Team Mississippi is led by uncommitted five-star linebacker Nakobe Dean out of Horn Lake (Miss.) High. The blue-chip recruit and top-ranked inside linebacker by 247Sports took official visits to Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, LSU and Texas A&M, while also considering the in-state programs. He’ll announce his college decision on Dec. 19 during the Early Signing Period.

As a senior, Dean racked up 175 tackles including 26 for loss en route to winning his state’s Gatorade Player of the Year honors. The instinctive, physical football player also picked off three passes, forced two fumbles and had seven sacks en route to an undefeated season and state championship.

A two-way standout, Dean rushed for six touchdowns. He ranks as the nation’s No. 14 prospect regardless of position per the 247Sports Composite.

Team Mississippi is loaded on the defensive line

Nix's potential nightmare.

The strength for Team Mississippi is in the trenches. Mississippi State defensive end commit Nathan Pickering, Alabama defensive end pledge Byron Young and Auburn defensive end commit Jaren Handy are big-bodied, versatile players that all rank inside the Top100 of the Top247 Composite Player Rankings. Another Mississippi State commit in defensive end Charles Moore arrives ranked No. 105 nationally.

Beyond those guys, you have Auburn defensive end commit Jamond Gordon and Tennessee defensive end commit Jalil Clemons.

Roster Movement For Team Alabama

247Sports insider John Garcia says Georgia five-star offensive line commit Clay Webb and Alabama Top247 offensive line commit Pierce Quick won’t play in the game which is a blow for Team Alabama as they face that stout defensive line.

Also for Team Alabama, LSU quarterback commit Peter Parrish replaces Alabama quarterback pledge Taulia Tagovailoa who is out with injury and Clemson safety commit Ray Thornton is in for Auburn cornerback commit Nehemiah Pritchett. Parrish's team Phenix City (Ala.) Central team won a state championship over the weekend defeating Tagovailoa's squad.




I wanted Pierce in Montgomery this week to help lock down Nakobe Dean.

ETA: Having said that, it's good Webb won't be there to do the same.

Well I think from the LSU side it’s because they’ve gotten bit by Bama before.


Yea that’s my thought. 90% of their posters just concede him to Bama bc they are used to it and don’t want to get their hopes up. All insiders I have read say LSU is very much in it for him. I will be glad to be wrong on this one .

Anyone who says UGA getting Dean isn't a big deal it is if that happens. He's a stud

Despite not being an early signee, Byron Young says he is 100% committed to Alabama.

He wants to take his OVs before signing. The only one he has scheduled so far is to LSU next month.

I am 50/50 right regarding Sospher to UA. I also think Thib stays on the west coast and would not be shocked if he picked USC. To'oto'o recruitment will be interesting and hope we land him as he seems like a great fit our program

Reuben is still lost.

In his personal life, yes...be from a football standpoint, he's got plenty of sense....at least that's what Jim Haslett told me after he interviewed him at Senior Day up in Tuscaloosa.

That shoulder doctors said would be fine is totally fricked up. As a 49er fan it hurt watching him try to run around and tackle people with one arm.

I am not saying he won't go to LSU.Just questioning how is he is he a Heavy Lean to LSU when most knowledgeable people are saying we lead for him. That's all.

People read stuff written by homers like Sam Spiegelman, who's now with Rivals-LSU, and see a lot of 247 CBs for LSU. But well-connected people are aware that Ish and his father believe Bama is the best choice for his future.

From Rusty Mansell, one of the Georgia 247 mods:

quote:

- Have not heard much this morning yet on the Nakobe Dean visit from last night. Yesterday I did hear about the same I have been hearing lately and that was Alabama seems to be the team trending at the end.
