Watch what Alabama does, that'll be the model for the rest of the country (Saban's probably already been planning for this for months).

Especially now that Saban's got all the NCAA brass rolling in Mercedes.

Yes, Britt is being recruited as a Safety. Solid pick up, but definitely a Plan D (or lower).

I think the staff is all in on Henderson at WR, and keeping their fingers crossed that Manuel qualifies. With Fraziers committed, that would be three very good WR's. They're also pushing for Beckwith, who will be a Pitts type TE (more of a WR). I think they're keeping a couple of WR's warm just in case (Wideman (FSU commit), Poitier, maybe another I can't recall).

cant we just recruit an elite safety? Must we convert a hs receiver?

We should basically be camping out at Avantae Williams and Tim Smith’s house. Flip those 2 and bring in Henderson and we’ll have a top 7 class.

Apparently not. I think they still want Williams, but he's been quiet lately. Speculation is he'll stay close to home because he has a kid, but how knows?

All safeties are HS receivers.

Ever been to a high school football game?

You and I see the same reharding the need for "elite" safety prospects though, but, would you let your kid play for English?

So, is it more accurate to say almost all safeties are HS receivers?
The GOOD one who are going to D1 are great athletes who play both ways.

This is a kessage board. We are typing w our thumbs. I really dont feel inclined to determine if it is 99% vs 96%.

You are rapidly achieving Wobble status.

Yeah. Both ways. Is this kid showing out at safety in HS?

and no. I wouldn’t let my kid play for English.

We can't find one that speaks English.

You're right I'm pissed.

(silence)

All comes down to having pride, period.

(pause)

So shower folks.

(pause)

That's what all I was pissed off about. How did so many kids go bad? I haven't been around players where so many go bad, so s***bird. I mean this is s***bird football! It's bad. As bad as I've ever been around, Jesus. Bad as I've ever been around. Just s***bird football. I've never been around players where you've coached the same s*** for months. I've never been in a place like that. Gotta coach the same s*** over and over. Gotta coach practice, gotta coach (inaudible), are you kidding me? (inaudible) Just once, and I gotta coach the same s***.

There's a lack of focus now. There's a lack of pride, is what that is. But more importantly, self-respect. That's what it really is; you have no respect for yourselves. Why should anybody else, if you've never looked at yourself and said, you know what, I'm not falling into that trap, I'm not (unintelligible).

That's why I have no respect for the players that went here, I have no f****** respect for you b****. I have no respect for you little quittin'-ass b****. That's why you got your ass kicked, quitter. That's what I call y'all, all little f***ers. Mother******, I don't need to respect you, I don't give a f*** about you, b****. There, it's true. I don't f***** care about complainers, cause you mother****** are quitters. Gotta get out mother*******. I don't give a f*** about you, b****.

Could care less. I respect football players, but I respect football players, mother******. But you ain't no football player, you little b****. You're a little f****** b****, that everybody laughs at over and over, because they know you're a f***** quitter. They know from the third quarter and halftime that you quit. If you wanna call it what it is. Do you know why it happens? Because you allow it to happen out here. You just come out here on Thursdays and f*** around, come out on Wednesdays and f*** around...

So, basically, Minister of Information is Ron English....
I guarantee English has passed out by 11 p.m. . There is no way he could be working midnight shift somewhere on the side.

We're getting a visit from this kid, super low ranked 3-star RB....but he leads the nation in rushing. Good size, I haven't watch his tape yet. Planning a visit for the Vandy game.

I guess we aren't getting Gibbs, especially now that he is a top 150 / 4 star...

GD! Without a visit, it’s been a long shot. But, I’ve been high on this kid for a while. Really wanted a shot. PS thanks @BMF was wondering who the chatter was about with the “leading rusher” visiting. This is limp.

I read that Gibbs is hoping for a UGA offer. I don't get it though, UGA has a top 50 RB committed. Ohio State has been talking to him also, along w/ LSU. He's visiting Ohio State and LSU. Doesn't look good for us since he doesn't have any visits planned.
