Marcus banks waiting to hop on the Bama train

LSU commitment Marcus Banks was in Tuscaloosa for an official visit and multiple sources close to the Texas native’s recruitment stressed he had a great time after arriving on Friday, and that Alabama put themselves in good position if they decide to make a push for his signature down the road. Banks took a summer official visit to Texas A&M and then LSU before committing to the Bayou Bengals. But Alabama has always been lurking in the weeds with Tide assistant Jeff Banks having established a strong relationship. As noted, the visit went fantastic with Banks spending time with Baton Rouge native Christopher Allen as well as Deionte Thompson and Jaylen Waddle. There were nothing but good reviews coming from the Banks camp. One source indicated if Bama makes the push we discussed earlier, the Tide will be tough to beat.

Basically Bama likes him but waiting to see how numbers work out and if they do banks is ready to join them.
