Feeling REALLY GOOD about this class. These are some good guys with some astonishing natural gifts. And they are about to be coached up by some of the best in the land.

We're gonna rock the world with this team.

Cheers Tiger Nation! Today is a GREAT day!

I wouldn't trade our class for yours, because our needs are different.

Right. Because you are so freakin solid at QB, WR, S, and DL.

You'd treat in a heartbeat you fricking douchebag.

But hey--you got an overweight OT and a dime a dozen RB plus a WR who peed on himself about competing at LSU. Huzzah.

I agree, Alabama needs players like Fluker for the offense they run. We got the players we needed; Alabama got the players that they needed.

Ours is solid, majority will qualify and many are underrated. Bama, once again, heavily over signed and many will not qualify. Saban is obviously playing games to get high recruiting rankings especially considering that he signed 30 or so (again) and only has like EIGHT scholarships to give.

Cut down on the hostility, bro.

QB


Not too bad, we have depth. No worlbeaters, but we wouldn't do much with Shepard.

quote:

WR


Although we aren't that much of a passing team, we did sign the #2 WR class according to Rivals.

quote:

S


Yes, we are a bit short on safeties. This will be a priority this year.

quote:

DL.


Again, according to Rivals, we signed the #4 DT class and the #6 DE class, and the DL is certainly not a concern for me this year, other than pass rushing.

No, I wouldn't, or else I would have said so.

quote:

you got an overweight OT


Fluker is actually pretty svelt for his size, he could easily be 400+. He'll be a 1st Round pick after some polishing.

quote:

dime a dozen RB


You're right. Mike Marrow is not very highly rated.

quote:

who peed on himself about competing at LSU


I doubt he'll ever play that much.

Not enough. I was really hoping we'd get Jackson, Reid, or Smith. This will also be a big priority next year.

CB isn't that big a need, we had to get a quality one and I'd say that we did in Dre. We brought in Zo, Green, and BJ (who will be switched over next year) and all were very highly rated corners. Considering Kareem Jackson has 2 more years of eligibility, we added Dre and the state is going to have a great DB group...we're fine.

We may have needed another safety though, Thompson kinda screwed us with Myles, but we'll bring some in next year.

Our needs were definitely different, but only a fricking idiot would trade Shepard, Randle, and Loston for Richardson, Fluker, and that overrated QB whose name escapes me.

Shepard - Richardson | This is a push, both will do well in their respective offenses.

Randle - Fluker | Alabama already has a stud at WR, and we just lost one at LT. Fluker won't be as good as immediately as Randle, but I suspect his impact may be felt to a greater extent when they are older.

Loston - McCarron | I'd definitely take Loston on this one, but McCarron certainly isn't our 3rd best commitment. That title belongs to Kirkpatrick or Johnson.

True, I should have left out McCarron. Didn't mean to sound like a douche about it, I just don't find him all that impressive. I guess I'll find out on the field in a couple years.

I think Shep is on another level than TR, I would say that TR and Mike Ford are a push, but I'm an LSU homer, soooo yeah.

Obviously we both got great classes. It really doesn't matter where we're ranked. How accurate do you really think this stupid star system is in grading players? It's a good guess, but it's not rocket science. Anybody in the top 10 may have the best class after they age a couple of years.
