I read a recent interview with Surtain and he said Bama was right there with LSU as his top two with LSU having a slight lead. He also said, and this was surprising to me, that he thought Alabama had the better opportunity for early playing time.

quote:
Because of his size at 6-2, his frame, his NFL pedigree, his athleticism and ball skills, Surtain can compete for a starting job in most programs around the country. But early opportunity is important to him and that has helped Alabama surge of late in his recruitment.

“Just their depth chart at cornerback. That’s a big key. Early playing time for me, being able to get into a school and compete and start as a true freshman. That’s one major thing I look at.”

Asked what program offered the best depth chart situation, he pointed towards the Tide.

“Bama probably because they’re losing all those DBs. Mostly, if I just compete, I’ll have a chance to play anywhere.”

Lol I had to edit that was so bad, my apologies. And I think we even out early PT with our Dbs leaving also.

We just lost our second and third best corner... next up is greedy (gone after next year), Fulton (junior next year) and kary

The opportunity to play early here is a good one
