This time (since Bama shitte the bed last year with the "recruiters" on staff) there is more pressure on the fans to do all we can, troll, piss and moan, cry, worry, post inane ramblings, and tons of bitching to get a kick arse group.

I am beginning to think I am not holding up my end.

Antonio Alfano is the gem of this class. Don't make a damn who we sign afterwards. His mother is a babe as well.

Alfano is the Jon Allen of this class. Seems to have the same mindset/attitude of Allen and I can see him having a very similar career on the field.

I get that you don't think Taggart is a good coach. He's from my hometown and I've followed his career since the beginning, his teams get more organized every year he is there. The shite show was a lot more than just coaching and while I won't defend his job at it overall, there were many factors in play that led to really sub optimal results in Tallahassee.


He hasn’t stayed anywhere long enough to know what he can build. Hell, he’s yet to see a recruiting class through to graduation.

He's moved to take better jobs. I can't fault him for that.

Thibodeaux and Alfano would be an amazing duo. Copeland and Curry part deaux.
I think Alfano is very good But Thibodeaux maybe the Goat of the class along with Dax Hill. Want him as much or more than anyone in this class.

That's been proven fake. Gino Toretta at least directly countered this also the math doesn't work out, the actual numbers for people who left someone off the ballot are much higher.
87 left off tua
74 left off Murray
That's where the 13 number came from, but we don't know who actually left off tua.

That picture looks like four random people just posing together. No one looks related

Alfano looks related if you see him with his bio mom and dad.

Right now It sounds like the three most likely recruits to sign with Bama are:

1. Neal
2. Thib
3. Toto

Trey Sanders was a done deal to Bama, but for whatever reason his last second visit to Athens has turned this into a close race. No one behind the scenes saw this coming... it's likely Bama lead for so long that once he comes down off of whatever uga fed him he will roll with the Tide, but what was once a slam dunk is now a race to the finish. DJ Williams is plan B.

Sopsher is not the slam dunk everyone thinks. LSU is still in the mix, and any recruit that takes it to February doesn't know 100% where they are going. Insiders still think he will end up at Bama possibly because other schools probably will not be able to get his brother into school. If not for any silly shite with his brother Sopsher is going to Bama.

Bogle: Depending on the numbers the staff would likely be willing to take Bogle if Bogle is willing to join same class as Thib. No idea at the moment, and Thib is the domino here.

Nakobe Dean is a coin flip. No one knows where he is going. Dismiss all rumors. No one knows.

Making the Dean commitment less painful if he goes elsewhere... The Bama staff are just as high on Toto as Dean. Toto is an elite prospect, and the staff would LOVE to get Dean and Toto, but one of either is perceived a win by Bama at the ILB position. (I said Toto was my favorite ILB in the class a long time ago- props to me... and Cobra recently agreed I think)

Pola Gates, Battle, and Banks = First guy to commit is the word but,... things are never that simple IMO, and if the staff had a choice I get the feeling they want Pola Gates or Banks because they like a few of these other guys at Safety and star, and want this last guy to be more of a corner.

Zipperer is pulling the "I want to play with my friend" bullshite... The staff really wanted zip, but it's not looking like its going to work out... likely to land in Miami.

Tennessee is all in on Wright.

Sorrells could be backup for Sopsher if things go sideways.

Ty Robinson will end up at Nebraska

Also if Zipperer wants to play with his friend wouldn't that be UF?

I think Bogle would come even if Thibodeaux comes. I say that because I have to think Bogle going to Miami may have hit a snag with Manny Diaz taking the Temple job.

Bogle is tied more to UF than Miami, but for whatever reason those in the know are saying Miami.

I dont think he would join class with Thibo. Plus the numbers would have to work out for him to still get a spot which would mean we missed on someone else which I hope doesn't happen

The most likely class additions (imo)

Dec: Sanders, Neal, Dean, Thibodeaux
Maybe Battle instead of C Williams
Glass or DJ Williams if miss on Sanders

Feb: Sopsher, To'oto'o
Maybe Bogle if miss on Thibodeaux
Maybe DeVonta Lee if miss on To'oto'o
Maybe Glass or DJ Williams if no Robinson
