That him and Gervon didn't really talk about much. Kyree Campbell hosted. He hung out with Kyree and some of the other DL. They didn't really recruit him but they all wanted to know why bama over florida. Sounds like he values Bama's NFL production over relationships to me.

"I really didn't even talk to Gervon like that. I hung out with my host mainly."

"Pretty much they were trying to find out what's my deal between Alabama and the Gators. Not so much trying to tell me to come to Florida, but just trying to figure out the 'why and the why not"

"As of now, they can't really change the numbers overnight for producing, but as of now it's just relationships."

That should be obtainable, donkey brays 500 times a day.

Tim Smith said at first Bama put more guys in the league. That was the narrative Bama pushed and obviously true over the last 10 years. But he said he did his research and that Florida was way closer than he thought so that narrative doesn’t matter to him anymore. He knows Turners track record. It’s now simply down to relationships now. Which he has more with Florida recruits.

So we shall see.

Who wrote that? Because that’s the opposite narrative that’s been said by most sites

But those quotes are supposed to be words that came out of Tim Smith's mouth. So ... nobody technically wrote it. Right?

EDIT: Well ... the first part is my deduction of the quotes that are below it. So I wrote the first part which I feel like is just paraphrasing the 3 quotes below.

Is EJ announcing Wednesday? Assumed if he did that would be the “surprise”.

Believe so

. Full court press for Washington AND Beckwith?

Sure, show up late to the prom, undprepared, wearing a tuxedo tshirt and with a hand full of daisies you picked from a highway berm, get on your knee in front of a couple of hot chicks, then after getting publicly rejected, try to steal another girl who already is there with a date. AGAIN.

Sounds promising.

Anyone checked Tulane's WR board also? RB may not be enough.

Nice! I was under the impression he was signing in Feb. is that still the case and he’s just committing or does he plan to sign early?

Sire, show up late to the prom, undprepared, wearing a tuxedontshirt and with a hand full of daisies you picked from a highway berm, get on your knee in front of a couple of hot chicks and after getting publicly, try to steal another girl who already has a date.

We’ve been on both those guys for a while. It was Washington who showed up late to consider us.

Donnell Harris has unpinned his AM commitment tweet and announced a commitment ceremony where he’ll pick between AM and Florida.


I’m going to go ahead and pencil this one in the books

Your optimism is inspiring.

That’s what he told 247. So we will see.

Literally in a 247 article. That’s the only one I pay for. Search again.

Here’s even a tweet that has a small part of it

 

[neteng]

Great. I feel better about him then! This DL is going to pan out. Huge checkmark on that position of need if this holds out.

 

[Thick&ThinG8r]

I've said since the summer that T Smith was a program changer but a 0% chance of landing him. After months of work I thought maybe 50% after this weekend.
Now after reading his comments it's back to 0%.

The bold is from 247. His relationships are at UF. The Bama board basically said that the only reason they have hope is because their mod is cautiously picking him to Bama. Based on actions, he’s probably a UF lean. People are reading into his comments too much. He’s a kid who avoided interviews and is a quiet kid. I think he flips , but that only means I think it’s greater than 50%. Hard to pull anyone from Bama
