Leatherwood supposedly lost his confidence this Spring trying to block Lewis and Allen 
. I am a bit skeptical of him being able to play OT at a high level next year if that's the direction we go. I do think Womack, while maybe not a high upside guy, is a very good college OL, and will slide back in to some spot next year. I could see the OL being something like...
Wills
Cornbread
Ekiyor/Owens
Leatherwood
Womack
Neal may have something to say about it. The staff is very high on Ekiyor. Okay, maybe Key will prove to be really good and develop some of these interior guys. We'll see. Again, not saying he's bad. But I don't think I would say he's "really good" right now, either. IMO, the jury is still out.

Who is cornbread? I must have missed that nickname.

Ekiyor is the main reason I didn’t care if we pulled Webb. And I think Neal is a day 1 starter if he comes.

I believe he is referring to Deionte Brown.
Personally, I would have gone with Turf Toe.

He has definitely earned the name Turf Toe.

I can relate. I lost my confidence with trying to date hot models.

What would be the most Mississippi thing ever??......Dean picking Ole Miss at the end. Being from here that would be miserable

Predicting where the top 9 uncommitted 2019 football recruits will sign (Bud Elliott)
quote:
We’ve reached the point where the majority of the country’s top 2019 prospects are already verbally committed to some school or another. Most of those commitments will stick, though not all will.
This post is a rundown of the nine highest-rated prospects who don’t have a current verbal commitment to any school. Predictions by SB Nation recruiting analyst Bud Elliott.
For purposes of this piece, I’ll only be predicting those expected to sign during the Early Signing Period until that is over, before adding those who will sign on the traditional date in February.

quote:
Kayvon Thibodeaux, five-star DE, Thousand Oaks (Calif.) Christian
Kayvon Thibodeaux is one of the best defensive end prospects in the nation. He is 6’4, 240, and has elite burst off of the edge. He has strongly considered Alabama, Florida State, and Oregon throughout the process, and has also visited Florida and USC.
Prediction: Oregon seemed to have all the momentum following its upset win over Washington with Thibodeaux visiting. But there has been some recent slight optimism out of the Alabama and Florida State camps. With low confidence, I’ll say he sticks on the West Coast and signs with the Ducks.

Trey Sanders, five-star RB, IMG Academy (Fla.)
Sanders is a 6’0, 215-pound running back with impressive burst. But he can also run over defenders. Sanders would fit in just about any offense. The primary two schools in this race are Alabama and Florida. Florida took Sanders’ brother, Ulmstead, as a walk-on linebacker out of junior college in 2018.
Prediction: While Florida has made a connection, I think this has been Alabama’s battle to lose for some time now.

Nakobe Dean, five-star LB, Horn Lake (Miss.)
In a spread era in which it is tough to find great linebacker, Dean really stands out. He can run sideline-to-sideline, but he is also a major hitter. Every major SEC school has offered, and this will be a battle between Alabama, Georgia, and Texas A&M.
Prediction: Many think that Georgia is in the driver’s seat here, but I think the Tide will pull it out. I am not stepping in front of the Alabama train with how the Tide are recruiting.

quote:
Evan Neal, five-star OL, IMG Academy (Fla.)
Evan Neal is an elite 6’7, 350-pound offensive tackle who destroys opponents in front of him. And he shows greater lateral quickness in pass protection than you’d expect out of such a large player. Alabama and Miami are the top two true contenders.
Prediction: While Neal has extensive ties to Miami, he was once an Alabama commit, and I predict he will be again. Neal has never seemed to care about early playing time, and if that’s truly not important to him, then Alabama seemingly has the advantage in almost every other area over its competitors.

Since when has UGA been in the drivers seat for Dean? I know they were in on him but this seems new?

Watching Drake score that TD yesterday was awesome. It got me to thinking about versatile RBs. We had Drake and Jacobs the last several years who were both so dynamic and multi-skilled.
Who is the "next" Kenyan Drake or Josh Jacobs? Do we have anyone like that on the roster? Anyone out there in recruiting that stands out in that respect?
Asa Martin?

If it's true we will take 31 in this class is there a chance that Bogle comes even if Thibodeaux commits?
