Many top linemen were in Tuscaloosa over the weekend for Alabama’s OL-DL camp, with one of the top prospects in attendance being Monroe (La.) Ouachita Parish offensive tackle Cameron Robinson. The 6-foot-5.5, 330-pounder, who ranks as the nation’s top offensive lineman in the 2014 cycle, worked out for the Tide coaches on Saturday.
Cameron Robinson at Ouachita Parish
“It went real good. I got down there and met with Coach (Mike) Groh, who recruits my area. I worked out a little bit with Coach (Jeff) Stoutland, the offensive line coach. Then I was able to talk with Coach Saban,” noted Robinson.
“Coach Saban was basically telling me how they run their program and how they feel about me and that they hope I’ll join their team one day when I’m ready to make my decision. Basically, he was just telling me to my face that they were offering me, how their program is ran, how their academics, and everything. I went to A-Day, so I’ve seen pretty much everything. They’re doing some construction- I think they’re starting to work on building a bigger weight room.”
The camp afforded the five-star prospect with the opportunity to work one-on-one with Stoutland and to continue building relationships with the Tide staff.
“It was very fun working with Coach Stoutland. The way he approaches his players and coaches is a lot like my offensive line coach, so if I were to go to Alabama, it wouldn’t be hard for me to adjust to what they do at all.
“It was beneficial, because I had spoken with Coach Stoutland and Coach Saban, but my relationship with them wasn’t as strong as I would’ve liked it to be, so I was able to get down there and build a relationship with them.”
The north Louisiana standout, who indicates his top three remains LSU, Alabama, and Texas, plans to make one more camp stop later this summer before turning his focus to his upcoming season.
“I think I’m going to either LSU or Alabama in July. That will be it other than doing summer condition with my high school.”
Robinson has a grade of 99 from 247Sports and is ranked as the no. 5 prospect in the 2014 cycle, regardless of position.

Detroit (Mich.) Cass Tech class of 2015 quarterback Jayru Campbell went down to Tuscaloosa this weekend with his team for an Alabama 7-on-7 tournament.
Jayru Campbell at Cass Technical
The 6-foot-3, 180-pound Campbell left the campus with a verbal scholarship from the Crimson Tide, after throwing the football well in front of Coach Nick Saban and his coaching staff.
"It was shocking to me," Campbell said. "I had butterflies. I was feeling real good. I grew up as an Alabama, Michigan and Florida fan. Alabama, I'd always cheer for them and stuff. I know they've put out a lot of NFL players and they win a lot of National Championships and they're a great football team."
Notre Dame and Eastern Michigan have also jumped in the mix early for the 6-foot-3, 180-pound Campbell, who as a freshman helped his team win the first state championship in school history. Campbell threw for over 2,000 yards and 32 touchdowns to just six interceptions.
Cass Tech finished 9-2 at the Alabama tournament, and following play, Campbell got a chance to talk with Saban.
"He was like we're going to recruit you," Campbell recapped. "He said I have great accuracy and a good arm. He said I have decent footwork and I have to keep working and he likes my attitude and how I play the game."
Cass Tech coach Tom Wilcher was also privy to Saban and Campbell's conversation.
"He said we are going to recruit you, you're a kid high on our board and if you want to call it an offer you can," Wilcher added.
Other programs showing interest in Campbell includes Florida, Florida State, Michigan, Penn State, UCLA and Vanderbilt.

LAS VEGAS- The final Elite 11 Regional tryout is in the books, so now it’s time for the coaching staff to decide which players will ultimately participate in the finals in Redondo Beach, Calif. in July.
Christian Hackenberg at Fork Union Military (HS)
Penn State quarterback commit Christian Hackenberg was the top prospect at Saturday's Elite 11 Regional in Las Vegas.
Here’s a look at our top prospects from Saturday’s event, which was held on the campus of UNLV.
1-Christian Hackenberg, Fork Union (Va.) Military Academy
The 6-foot-4, 210-pound Penn State commit was everything that we thought he would be in this setting and then some. His size impressed right off the bat as well as his arm strength and quick release. We’ve always like the fact, too, that Hackenberg, though one of the best quarterback prospects in the country, still can develop and get even better (the coaching staff was working with him on balance in his throwing stance). Following the event, he was invited to “The Opening.” Expect him to rise in the next round of 247Sports rankings updates for 2013.
2- Troy Williams, Harbor City (Calif.) Narbonne
Williams always impresses in this setting and Saturday was no different. He has a quick release, good arm strength and is for the most part accurate. He’s shown up at events such as this one and 7-on-7s and more than held his own over the years and Saturday was no exception. Currently committed to Washington, he was excited about the news Saturday that four-star receiver Darrell Daniels pulled the trigger on a commitment to the Huskies while in Seattle. “He told me he was going up there and he could commit,” Williams said. “We want to try to have the most talented team in the Pac-12, so getting players like (Daniels) to commit is very big.”
3-Davis Webb, Prosper (Texas)
The 6-foot-4 Webb is committed to Texas Tech and it’s clear when you watch him sling it that he’s a good fit in that style of offense (sling it around the yard) because of his live arm and quick release. Particularly on slant patterns, Webb was especially effective. He has a bright future in Lubbock if he continues to develop.
4- Shane Cockerille, Baltimore (Md.) Gillman
Parker McLeod at Walton
Alabama commit Parker McLeod did not have his best day in terms of overall accuracy, but his quick release and arm strength were evident.
Cockerille has impressed in this setting on multiple occasions this spring and Saturday was no different. The lefty has excellent size, a big arm and above average footwork. The Maryland commit was happy that the Terps recently picked up commitments from two of the top D.C.-area prospects in this class- four-star offensive tackle Derwin Gray and linebacker Yannick Ngakoue. “I sort of wanted to get things started being the quarterback and one of the first to jump in and all,” Cockerille said. “It’s very nice to get those guys on board as part of this class.”
5- Brandon Dawkins, Westlake Village (Calif.) Oaks Christian (2014)
Dawkins does not look pretty throwing the ball in terms of throwing motion, but the ball comes out of his hands exceptionally well, he can throw an accurate deep ball with excellent velocity and he’s accurate for the most part- so throwing motion aside, the 2014 four-star has the makings of a big-time player. Notre Dame has already offered Dawkins, who threw for more than 3,000 yards and was the sophomore Player of the Year in California last season.
6- Zack Greenlee, Stockton (Calif.) Lincoln
Greenlee showed a live arm, quick release and excellent footwork during the drills Saturday morning. He’s accurate, has excellent velocity on his passes and was generally impressive in all phases, which is a big reason why he won MVP and was invited to the finals. BYU, Fresno State, Oregon State and Washington State are among the schools that are showing interest, but he still is waiting on his first offer.
7- Parker McLeod, Marietta (Ga.) Walton
Arm strength and a quick release stand out about McLeod when you watch him throw. Today, he was not as accurate as he was at Alabama’s prospect camp when he earned an offer and subsequently committed, but he still was generally accurate. On film, he shows a headiness and comfort level with the game that combined with his ability to get the ball out quickly, gives him the upside to compete at a BCS conference program.
8- Danny Etling, Terre Haute (Ind.) South Vigo
Purdue is getting a good quarterback prospect in Etling, who has a nice arm and excellent size. During the early portion of the camp in individual drills, he displayed good footwork and made some good passes rolling out. Etling currently is the nation’s No. 43 pro-style quarterback prospect according to 247Sports and could rise a bit in those rankings in the near future.
9- Brandon Cox, Pasadena (Calif.)
This setting isn’t where Cox, who is considered both a quarterback prospect and a versatile athlete prospect that could play a number of different positions in high school, necessarily can show you what he is all about. With that, we were impressed with the zip he put on his passes, his general footwork and the competitiveness with which he approached the drills. Arizona, Iowa State and New Mexico State currently are his three scholarship offers.
10- Trent Hosick, Kansas City (Mo.) Staley
Hosick is another prospect who you have to really judge in pads, live to get a true picture of what he can do with both his arm and his feet. Regardless, he threw the ball around well Saturday morning and we believe the Missouri commit is an excellent fit for what the Tigers like to do on offense.

I don't want him anyway. I want Kevin Dillman out of California. He is from Sweden and plays at the same high school as the Latua brothers. He's gonna be the top ranked QB in the 2015 class. Book it.
