Not sure if he can commit yet, but Bessent was able too and he is a much different taller athlete type (played WR and CB) but I watched JR's film and I'm sold on him I REALLY liked what I saw, he reminded me a ton of Greg Reid (played at FSU, would've flourished in a better system for him) or a little bit like Javy Arenas. I have seen the comparisons to HB7 (because of PR/KR ability and same HS) but he is a better quick twitch athlete with better hips. He is short this is true, but I think he will be a hell of a CB for whoever he signs with. I wouldn't be surprised if he is allowed to commit based off what I saw on film.
I think Bama takes 4 true CBs at the very least (already have 1 & Marlon will be 1 so 2 or 3 more)

Will Saban go back to the JUCO well for a CB since the need for numbers is there? Or is just a numbers need and not an instant impact need?
On Roberts, I also don't think the Mathieu comparison is an apt one, but more to do with that Matieu actually was 5'10", which is a bit taller than Roberts. Mathieu also had disproportionately long arms for his height, which is something Roberts doesn't have but is something every DB coach and basketball coach in the country covets. Height can be deceptive, reach is as important.
