Bone's Insider Report, released at 3:41 AM:

*Bama found out late Saturday about Isaiah Prince's visit to tOSU,took them by surprise as he told them he wouldn't make the visit.
*Cristobal did not visit Prince on Monday, but will instead in home visit with HC Nick Saban on Tuesday.
*The given reason as to why Prince visited tOSU is that he had made a previous promise to visit them and wanted to make good on it.
*Prince's father and HC both expect him to sign with Bama, but they will not prevent Prince from making his own decision.
*Prince is a favorite of cristobal, will used tomorrow to see where Bama is at regarding the LT position.

*Cristobal's visit with CVO went very well Monday, decided that it was best to hold off committing until a few days before NSD.
*Bama is trending for CVO, has lead for him over the last few weeks. Bama is still looking at his transcripts to see if he can qualify.
*Will likely not take his commitment if his chances are grim.
*Not sure he's a take still, will depend on what ultimately happens with Prince. Otherwise, the numbers and his qualifying questions will likely keep him out.
*Would have picked Auburn tonight if he has went through with it, has a spot available in their class.

*Drew Richmond spoke with Cristobal Monday, looking to take officials to both Ut and Bama this weekend.

*Most likely to be Charlot and Hill at WR. Bama will in home with Hill Wednesday and a decision may come this week with Wednesday being circled.
*There was a point where Bama had a great shot to flip Terry Godwin, but their chances actually decreased the more he visited. Official gave them a boost, but likely not enough to trump UGA.

*CeCe Jefferson's Bama visit was a surprise, even to his own HC.
*Tosh Lupoi has put in a ton of work with Jefferson over the last few weeks and spent a lot of time with him Sunday. Will meet him again Tuesday.
*Jefferson is hard to figure out, no one knows where he's going but Jefferson himself.
*This weekend marked his 10th Bama visit.
*Bama is definitely in it, he's been made a huge priority of late. They want a passrusher to finish the class.
*Lupoi spent time explaining how much 43 Bama runs against the spread and aren't a 34 team base anymore.
*Will meet with all the schools on his list this week, and then break it down into a final decision.
*Would likely be a Gator right now if not for the coaching changes. New staff wants him to official, but he's been adamant that he doesn't need to see UF.
*This is Lupoi first major target as OLB coach.

*Saban had an in home visit with Tyron Wheatley Jr Monday along with Coach Bobbeh.
*Thought is Jr will sign with Michigan as his father was hired there, but Rivals' Michigan affiliate does not expect that to happen.
*Wheatley will take an Oregon official this weekend.
*Presumed he favors west coast schools, as UCLA and USCw have long been mentioned as favorites. Though UCLA seems to be out with their recruitment of him as a DE.
*Bama and USCw are recruiting him as a TE, and are likely his top schools.
*His recruitment is really quiet because he doesn't do interviews much. Bama has been on him for a long time, Bobbeh has done a great job recruiting him.
*Bama has not backed off in interest, as evident in Saban's in home visit.


*TD Moton and Montrell Custis are both mutual partings best for both parties.
*Rico McGraw is still expected to flip to UGA. They have been hard after him, while Bama has essentially conceded him with reduced effort of contact and visits.
*Bama still wants him, but they see the writing on the wall.
*If all 3 flip, it means they all flipped back to the schools they were originally committed to.
*Despite holding communications with FSU, Minkah Fitzpatrick talks with Bama on a daily basis. Kirby Smart visited Sunday and Minkah told him he was solid to Bama. Will be a surprise at this point if he flips.
*Mekhi Brown is getting attention from Louisville and Notre Dame, but isn't expected to flip. Same goes for Hale Hentges and Mizzou.
*No questions on McMillon, Thomas, Ridley, or SBB.
*Sources say Kendall Sheffield is solid with Bama.

*Prince Tega has not been contacted since Bama visited Thursday. Offer is possible, but heavily dependent on the numbers.

*Derrius Guice may be turned away for an official, they have no interest in another RB.
*Ryan Davis is not expect to visit at all.
