I can live with that. Although I'm not too old yet I'm 42
If ya knew me in person, you would know I'm not grouchy. I just have strong feelings about things
I'm usually laughing and cutting up, even when I hurt myself, but I understand where you're coming from 
I've never even been to Starbucks. I don't believe in fancy coffee

Damn, Surge, I can't even read that. You're a brave man

I know you're usually a poster that's not too serious. I was just joking. I try not to go to Starbucks they're the McDonald's of coffee.

It's no problem
I really do hate flip flops and sandals though.

We need to start a closed-toe shoe, hot coffee movement next time I'm in the 'Ham. Set this world back in the right direction.
ETA: By the way, it is amazing how a commit changes the mood around here.

Four-star Keilan Robinson commits to Bama, brings versatility to the Tide
quote:
Alabama is tightening their grip on the top spot in the Rivals Team Rankings by picking up their newest commitment from four-star running back Keilan Robinson. The Washington (D.C.) St. John’s College High star visited Tuscaloosa in early June and the momentum from that visit was enough for Robinson to make the call for the Crimson Tide.

IN HIS OWN WORDS…
“I fell in love with the culture down there at Alabama,” Robinson said. “I have a great relationship with coach Locksley and I can see myself being a great fit in his offense. I talked to coach Saban a few times and they really wanted a dynamic playmaker at the running back position. Coach Saban and coach Locksley kept it real with me. They told me that they need a guy who can run inside, outside, around the edges, line up at slot, and return kicks and punts. Alabama’s running back room is full of 6 foot, 225-plus backs and might not the able to do the things I can do. It’s a great opportunity for me to make plays in a multitude of ways at the highest level of college football.
“I felt really comfortable there when I visited,” he said. “I spent the night there on both my visits, and one night on campus. I also feel comfortable with all the academic support they have set up. I want to make it to the league and be a successful person off the field. I feel like Alabama can best prepare me for that.
“I really like how things are done down there,” said Robinson. “It’s strictly business but also fun. The team feels like a family. It’s nothing like the stereotypes people have of the program.”

RIVALS’ REACTION…
Robinson is electric with the ball in his hands and should be a great compliment to the big, bruising backs already on Alabama’s roster. He has great hands and has no problem making defenders miss in the open field. Providing the versatility and change of pace to the Alabama offense is something Robinson relishes. He’ll need to fill out his frame a bit more before he sees consistent playing time but his impact on the offense and on special teams will be noticeable fairly early in his career.

I’m ready to see 2020 five-star DL McKinnley Jackson of George County (Miss.) today at the #RivalsChallenge inside Mercedes Benz. He showed up Wednesday in a #RollTide shirt.

I'm gonna try to play some catch up today with articles from the last week or so. Sam Spiegelman put out a lot of content from LSU's camp last weekend and it directly correlates to some of our targets.

Have that same energy if the next two or three ain't a guy like Clay Webb lol

LSU recruiting: Notes from Day 1 of LSU elite camp

Notes from Day 1 of LSU elite camp
BATON ROUGE, La. — LSU’s elite prospect camp kicked off Thursday with several big names on hand for the action. Headlining the visitor list at quarterback was 2019 Alabama dual-threat prospect Peter Parrish, who recently camped and earned an offer from Auburn, and 2020 pro-style passer Ken Seals, who previously visited for a junior day. Additionally, big names such as 4-star defensive lineman Byron Young and local 4-star athlete Christian Harris made their way to campus.
The month-long trend of no offers or commitments at camp continued, but there are plenty of news and notes to pass along from Thursday’s action:

Webb needs to commit.

Four-star Baton Rouge athlete Christian Harris returned to campus for the first time since the spring after making numerous stops across the Southeast, most notably to Alabama and Texas A&M, two schools that have both picked up some steam in his recruitment. Harris did not work out for the staff, but spent time chatting up different assistant coaches throughout the day. LSU remains squarely in the fold with the talented University Lab (La.) star, who could make a decision as early as August before his senior season.

Dennis Johnson was able to lure 4-star Mississippi defensive lineman Byron Young back to campus. Young has been to Baton Rouge a handful of times throughout the spring, so getting him back for camp looms large for the Tigers’ chances. Young worked out with Johnson and was closely observed by coach Ed Orgeron. Meanwhile, back in Mississippi, the Bulldogs landed a commitment from 4-star defensive lineman Nathan Pickering, who camped at LSU last weekend. LSU was feeling confident in its chances with Pickering after the unofficial visit and viewed his commitment to an SEC West rival out of left field. Expect LSU to shift its focus onto another highly regarded top-150 prospect like Young moving forward.

A contingent of Houston North Shore (Texas) prospects made their way to campus on Thursday, most notably 5-star 2020 running back Zachary Evans and 3-star 2020 offensive tackle Damieon George. Evans, the No. 1 back in the class, was electric running routes in front of Robinson and lived up the hype yet again. George, too, was physically impressive and caught the eye of James Cregg as well as Orgeron. Just as it was in 2016 (Eric Monroe) and 2017 (K’Lavon Chaisson), expect LSU’s 2020 class to focus squarely on some blue-chippers from North Shore High School.

Prayers for him and his family. At least he has a sense of humor about it all.
