OK, so Higdon is denying Miller is coming here (but Soso may be in play for us)
And Burton contends that as of last Sunday we had not even spoken to Miller
 
 
However, if you prefer board rumors -- one of the Ohio State boards thinks the Braxton transfer is in place and all the related paperwork has been filed.  Announcement to follow MNC game

Is that directed at aggie or LSU?

 

[Juan]

Smells like aggy

Speaking of Soso ...QB Matthew Merrick is taking his OV Jan 23

So, if Soso Jamabo is coming in for an OV then that's the likely weekend (as he and Merrick are good buds)

I just can't see Mack going back to aggy. 

In case you missed it, after Mack decommitted Gigem247 posters really said some nasty things about the kid. Mack's father wasn't happy either, he posted on the board and ripped them a new one. I'm sure Chavis helps but IMO there's bad blood there. 

Who knows who those Drake lyrics were directed at, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was a subtle shot at aggy.

In other news, Kingsbury is really struggling. IMO he lost his top 2 commits in Strickland and Stidham. 

Fehoko is a very good player but Kingsbury had nothing to do with landing him. Fehoko has a brother on the team and another brother I believe on the coaching staff. Fehoko was going to Tech regardless of the coach. After that Tech's recruiting class is very "meh". Dyer isn't bad but Wickline didn't think he was deserving of an offer. Akamnonu is a good player, but nothing elite. Interesting times ahead for Kingsbury. At the beginning of the season it looked like Kingsbury might have a little recruiting mojo, not so much now.

In red are the chances I think these kids end up signing with Texas, flip wise or commit wise.

What position do you think Louis Brown will play?

Eventually DE, maybe the Fox position (Hughes)

He is versatile

Oh lord.  How could Alabama possibly take any more DB prospects?  They are loaded with 5* at that position.

Thinking the same thing. 

He has the body to put on a serious good weight.

I do know that BM reached out to us. And that we're talking. That does not mean he's coming here. So that's a safe statement for Hig to make.

We've been able to say Soso may be in play for over a month. Yippee.

Burton learns a lot from his board.

Who here wants to top this offer?

[primal defense]

Alabama received a commitment from Rivals #1 rated RB in the country Damien Harris. Harris is the #11 player in the country and chose Alabama over Ohio State and Kentucky.

Saban is a good coach no doubt, but his coaching is also alot better because he gets the top players every year.
