Add Quinnen Williams and Landon Rice. Those 2 dudes are so underrated its borderline embarassing.
Yup. What's strange is even Bone, who does the evals for Rivals in Alabama, has QW #5 in the state but the national guys did not follow suit.

People are starting to take notice. Offers have been "pouring in" for him per 247. Bama, Florida, Georgia, and Michigan being the latest. I assume he'll be getting a bump in ranking

2015 note, but DAnfernee McGriff dual-signed with a JUCO in AZ in addition to UF.

Not surprising to us, of course, but some were wondering why we dropped him. That's it.

Per Scout we offered 4* Devin White as a RB. He's 6 foot, 235 lbs. He told Scout he loves everything about AU's offense. To my untrained eye he has good speed especially for his size. He's higher than Holyfield on my personal board FWIW. Highlights

Definitely seems to have good speed for his size, though not sure what level of competition he is playing in.

I will say, that kid is absolutely built to be in LSU's offense

Fits our offense well too as the wing t which his high school runs is basically our O except QB is under center.

Neely Henry, Weiss, and Guntersville are all under an hour away from Gadsden. Three of the best lakes in the state for fishing. Not a lot of hunting to be done there, but a buddy of mine duck hunts Neely with some success.

From his size stand-point, he's pretty similar to Pettway. His highlights make him look a little more shiftier than KP (where KP would rather run people over), but at that size, I see him moving to HB as well.

But that's just my opinion on the matter.

Hoke mentioned today that the staff "really likes" recently offered Florida RB Carlin Fils-Aime.

Most of that could be spot on except the shiftier than KP part. I watched every game KP played at Prattville and trust me he is shifty, especially for a big guy. There are some shifty runs here, including the 2nd one at 2 angles. LINK I think KP is slightly shiftier but DW has higher top end speed.

Honestly, I just watched half of each highlights to compare running styles and base attributes. So I can easily say you could be correct.

Kid has some good film. Can't believe he hasn't been rated yet.

I like him too. Runs hard and has very good balance.

He does.

Out of the recently reported RB offers out there, I like his film the best.

Based on the names likely to visit AU for this Saturday's Junior Day and most of them not having AU offers it looks like it's a day for lower targets on the board.

Looks like you were right and the staff agreed with you on the importance of getting Ivey or Chidi in the last class. Per Keith, missing them and Bailey being the only signed OT target is why they are putting out so many 2016 OT offers right now.

Ok that's just weird. I was just searching you out to tell you he was visiting UGA this weekend and AU had interest but to what level had not been said. I think Bama just offered TJ. I don't recall him having one before.
