We all hate when Bama gets guys from LA, but they haven't done that great since 2015. Almost seems like some Voodoo being put on some of these guys when they go away lol

AVERAGE OR LOWER:
Slade, Dylan Moses, Shyheim, Daylon Charlot, Ishmael Sopsher, Kyle Edwards, Kaine Williams

GREAT:
DeVonta Smith

GOOD:
Christian Harris, Chris Allen, Phidarian Mathis

TBD:
Shazz Preston, Aaron Anderson, Kendrick Law, Walter Bob

That so-so category has the butthurt all over it. Those dudes are really good players. We would have been happy to have them. I really can’t blame those guys given the state of our program. Kelly’s fixing that, though.

I believe that if O were still coach, this is the year top instate talent would have looked elsewhere just like they are currently.

now add Landon Collins and Hootie Jones to the list

I think the Tackle from Monroe should be added to great too. I think his name was Cam Robinson?

I just went back to 2015. If we go way back, the best recruit (Cam) they ever stole from us would be listed as #1

Dylan Moses was a baller before injury. He was preseason all American

Tim Williams, Shyheim Carter.

I have a heard time thinking that Christian Harris wasn't great.

Doesn’t seem like such a great “business decision” when only like 10% of the Louisiana kids that go to Bama even make the league.

Walter Bob went juco.

You could add Eddie Smith to the TBD category.

You also need to add Danny Lewis to the TBD category.

Bert and others: Cam Robinson, Landon Collins, Tim Williams, and Hootie Jones were all pre-2015.

We've done a better job keeping kids home from there until last year happened, which is a bit expected due to the coahcing changeover.

My bet is at least someone out of Preston, Anderson, Law and Lewis will turn out great for them and at least another 1 will be good. Lot of talent they unfortunately stole from us due to the coaching changeover.

He was overrated because of the team he was on. He was never a baller.
