Right now it looks like they aren't. They haven't offered and I just saw a quote from his coach that they haven't heard from Bama yet.

I wonder what players they are considering gray shirting?

Could this end up like the Darius Philon thing again? I had never seen that video of him on signing day till Rocky posted it.

The gray shirting comment could've just been pure speculation.... this guy from Elmore is VERY raw.... it's a risk delaying someone's enrollment who's probably more ready to play.

I'm pretty sure that just means they have not heard from Bama since the reclassification, which was not even 24 hours ago. Can you post the quote? TIA

It's not. Whether they try to greyshirt to get Prince remains to be seen but if they keep all they have committed now they have to greyshirt one anyway and Christian Bell has been the one talked about.

I don't believe he's ever been to Tuscaloosa, but I could be wrong on that.

That chance is always there with Saban every year.

Bama has been in touch before then and Prince has attended games there this season. Can you post the quote? TIA

Well the only way we know if they will recruit him after the reclassification is to look at their actions since reclassification. Obviously it's too early to say definitively either way

Supposedly lives with a pro AU family from one of the other message boards and doesn't have push to Bama

Yep. And I feel like his guardians would have a big influence on his decision since he just moved from Africa not long ago.

Currently he's got 3 CBs to Auburn and 3 to Bama.

Shannon Terry, KN, and Courtney Walker say Auburn
Warren, Shepard, and a MS writer say Bama.

I think you're right. My bad.

FWIW 247 owner and big time Bammer with connections there Shannon Terry crystal balled Prince to AU today.

Another note. 247 has him listed with 82 tackles last season. That a heck of a lot for a DE even in 1A ball. Good to see he was not playing down to the competition.

I just wish for Prince's sake the reclassification was done a couple months earlier so he could have had the chance to go against top recruits at an all star event like Chidi did.

Heard from two people today that I haven't in awhile. (Not your 'make a prediction on every kid' type guys)Confirmed our old staff had dropped the ball on recruiting and about everything else since aTm game minimum.

Both say Holland and Cowart are in. One added Key, and said Norton is ours if we take him. (Thus his subtle "maybe AU" comment) He has gotten very heavy.

Just passing along info. May be wrong even.

I think he will survive, maybe.

Every so often a kid stumbles out of the 'Hinterlands', and despite not playing in an All-Star game, does just fine.

I've heard really good things about Cowart. Auburn can lock him up this weekend.

Think Tega comes to AU too, but haven't heard anything on CeCe Jefferson.

This one seems like a long shot, especially with Tega in the mix now.

Would the 4 of Tega, Cowart, Key and CeCe all be down to be in the same class? That seems like a stretch

Also FWIW, WDE just posted on another board that CWM likes Gibson at Safety. Wants to sign him, then work out the details later!!

CeCe would be the longest shot they said.

Did Lucky CB Prince to AU just a minute ago?

The ones with AU are the more credible IMO.



Of course! But I think it is actually true.
