We all know the scholly limits so it begs the question, how does Nicky sign all these guys?


We had two players go the MLB route last year, along with 2 that went to JUCO. We have 2 slots for back-counters due to the baseball players and two of our current commits are January enrollees. We are also more than likely going to lose Andre Smith, along with some more of Shula's recruits who don't feel they will ever see the field. Don't worry about our numbers.

Let them worry TideSaint. They are rantards...rofl. It's obvious the fear has settled into all of their minds. Saban is going to hurt the rants feelings come signing day....

Word is Bama does lead slightly for Stinson and unless a good DC comes in for LSU, that is where he will end up.

Alabama will win the NC and McCain has won Presidency. Saban is a great motivator and recruiter but as a COACH, i don't think so. IF he was, he would still be in the NFL.

Where will the schollies come from?



They're expecting to lose some players to either health issues or guys transferring due to lack of playing time. Guys like Terry Grant may look to go where they'll see the field.

Gumps, honest opinion. How will you feel if/when you lose Kelly?

OldIowaTiger, I actually respect you as an LSU fan. Your posts are accurate and makes sense when you voice your opinion. Honestly, I don't mind losing Kendall Kelly. I have seen him play this year. I am not impressed. If you notice on Rivals, he has dropped in ratings. I hear alot of things about his character. You never know whats true or false. Personally, I will be happy if he went elsewhere.

Getting Randle will ease the pain.

Saban has to account for the 10 players that get arrested and thrown off the team every year.

No matter what Randle does or only if Randle comes to Bama?

What receivers are you lookin at as a whole as we get down toward the nitty gritty recruiting time?

I need to watch some video o him. I was thinking earlier in the year that people were pretty impressed with his size and hands.

Thanks for the compliment by the way Grip. I try. It's much more effective around here if you approach stuff with a rational well-calculated thought process.

We have the following uncommitted wideouts on our board:

1. Reuben Randle
5. Patrick Patterson
18. Kendall Kelly
19. Michael Bowman (committed)
20. Chad Bumphis
33. Kevin Norwood

Note: These are the Rivals WR rankings. All six of them are 4 stars, and three of them are from MS.

I am pretty sure Randle is a five star. Just sayin.

Kendall Kelly is a huge guy. He is built like a Linebacker with great speed. He has some good hands. I will admit that his QB is terrible. It just concerned me that Kendall was moved from WR to TE during the seson. I have heard he has character issues. It seems like he takes alot of plays off. Even though I don't care if he goes elsewhere, I think Saban will land him and Dre Kirkpatrick.

I think Patrick Patterson goes to Ole Miss, Chad Bumphis to Bama, Michael Bowman to Bama (unless Georgia offers). Hopefully Rueben is the icing on the cake. Look out for Houston Nutt, he may pull Patrick Patterson and Chad Bumphis.

Debose to LSU allows Bumphis to UF. He wants to be the next Harvin. Lil Nicky can't beat that.
Bowman will get his UGA offer, bye bye Bama. Check you boards.

Having two count back has nothing to do with the baseball players. Nothing. Why you said that I will have no idea other than you not understanding how recruiting numbers work. Attrition only allows you sign the 25, it doesn't give you the ability to sign 26 because Andre Smith is going pro.
