What's the word in Tuscaloosa? Is saban making him a priority? Do y'all feel he's a legitimate flip candidate?
I'm not too concerned but it's always tough when a kid gets that Bama offer.

I think I read that he is solid but will probably visit.

He visited auburn

It means his star rating is about to go through the roof.

Broken record

He is kinda blowing up at these camps.

Still plays.

Just a thought. Maybe the recruits Bama goes after are good enough to win 3 out of 4. No bump necessary.

I would love for OM to hold on to this guy. I think he's going to be a stud.

And maybe recruiting sites have admitted that recruits get bumped after getting certain offers.

Yes, but it's more an admission of a bad job on their part. If a kid is a 2 or 3 star, and gets offered by programs like Alabama, Florida State, Florida, Georgia, etc.....then he is obviously a higher calibur player. They are basically saying they trust college team evaluators more than themselves. Pretty simple

I know. I was just messing around.

UGA also offered today, fwiw

247 thinks he's a Bama lock, but he'll be at UGA next weekend (I think) for Dawg Night, with a bunch of other big time recruits.
And 247 reports his family and UGA coaches are friends in real life... I forget the relationship but it's there.
UGA already has a 4star safety commit, and is #1 with another 4star safety from Tallahassee. I want all three, but I don't know how likely that is with the Bama offer out there. Hopefully he has a good trip at UGA over the weekend.
ETA
We have this 4 star safety committed
We also have this 4 star safety leaning UGA
And this other 4 star safety that just tweeted UGA is his leader

Just a thought, Ohio State went undefeated last year so they are obviously recruiting better than yall.

If distance becomes a factor, Meridian is only about an hour from Tuscaloosa.

I'm a huge Saints fan but I hate them for hiring away Coach McGriff. If he were still at Ole Miss, CJ would be at Ole Miss regardless.
As it stands, CJ still has a great relationship with Coach Freeze but he is still getting familiar with Coach Jones.

Coach Friend was his dad's OL coach in college and said he has been around him since he was a baby.
I doubt he leaves the state and everything he has said been pretty solid for OM.
He did show up at the Opening wearing a UA visor.

he will be a 5- star come Monday with that offer
