At the very least, him going to Texas would be better than OSU.

I'm not sure it really loosens up any current OSU commits for us. Maybe, maybe not but i do think it keeps darnell wright of the OSU table and maybe some undecided guys look harder in our direction.

I'd have to go back and look but i think there's a georgia guy or two who might be leaninng pretty heavily toward OSU. If so, maybe that puts us in play.

Alabama needs to go after the LB Kane P.

I think due to the relationship the Aggie DC has with the family of C Harris - he coached his older bother at Wake that aTm is in a lot better position of getting Harris. This per Hank, who is I find the BOL homer mod has also said that Harris has several family member are wanting aTm. Dean, well I think he is no better than 50%. As of now, T Watts is not even touching that CB with a 20 foot poll so that should tell you something.

I need to study it some. Off the top of my head, OSU has been leading for Jameson Williams and in the mix for and recruiting Darnell Wright and Milton Wright pretty hard, so it should help our chances with those guys.

According to BOL insiders, after Milton Wright's June visit to UA he wants in and was cool with holding off for a while to see if it works out. If Bama wants a big WR and given Pickens' grade concerns and lack of visits to Bama, maybe it works out for him.

ETA: Jahleel Billingsley (6-4/216) mainly plays as a split WR now and might do that at Bama until he bulks up to TE weight.

I wish I could Photoshop one of those to give Meyer an offer to be an offensive analyst for FAU.

Out these 5-star recruits who do you think Bama will get if you had to predict: Sanders, Webb, Wright, Neal, Sopsher, Dean, Hill, Thib ?

Hank: "I think Bama has a legit shot at all of them. If I was picking today I'd say Sanders, Hill, Dean, Sopsher, Webb and Wright. I'm not sold on Thib just yet. I'm growing confidence with Neal."

Hank South went out on a limb and made percentage guesses on the following guys:

Kayvon Thibodeaux - 50%
Daxton Hill - 65%
Darnell Wright - 65%
Nakobe Dean - 50%
Clay Webb - 75%
Evan Neal - 70%
Ishmael Sopsher - 60%
Trey Sanders - 75%

He said he doesn't do 100% predictions on things like this, but he did say he thinks Alabama definitely lands Clay Webb and Trey Sanders.

He has Neal’s percentage hire than Wright’s, interesting.

I wonder if there is a place to check to see who all actually got these offer letters today. I am sure more got letter than the names listed.

Irony that OSU fans had the audacity to point fingers at PSU fans for defending Paterno...

Who are 5 2020 kids you think have a pretty good chance of being in the Bama class that aren’t in state kids?

Hank: "Chris Braswell, McKinnley Jackson, Kendall Milton, Demond Demas, Tate Ratledge, Bonus: Jermaine Burton"

I'm more interested in the guys who DIDN'T get one, a la Rashad Cheney.
