I believe this is the case of Alabama recruiting him just to keep him off our roster. I don't think they ever intend on playing him.

We do really need him and he would get pretty early playing time. Not so much at Bama. I'm not sure he has thought about that - this might have been a snap decision, in a way.

This is pretty dumb to even suggest. This isn't the days of Bear Bryant. Alabama only has 25 scholarships.

You can't "keep someone" away from LSU when you only have 25 spots open....you do realize this, don't you?

That's a bingo!

They will probably land Isaiah Prince (a better prospect) and are going all in on Willie Allen for next year. Bama uses about 4 or 5 scholarships a year to simply keep a player off an opponent's depth chart. Alvin Kamara is a great example.

Saban wants to weaken our offensive line. It's that simple. We can recruit other OT's, but stealing our instate lineman and flipping another commit for the hell of it... let's just call it what it is, shall we?

That's crazy talk. This kid is very good and will play at Bama. Bama has had some misses at tackle so Womack fills a need.
