He is a curious one. Before the season, there was a lot of hoopla of him helping out in the wide receiver rotation. Contributing more than what he has up to this point. I believe he was one who was questioning, through social media, some play calling.

This is the first I’ve seen of Cunningham possibly de-committing. I thought he had even made some comments a couple months ago about shutting his recruitment down….
I could be confusing him with someone else though.
That would be a big loss.

I'll say this, this recruiting class is going to be great, but also we're struggling in recruiting at this moment. Not sure why but looks like we'll be losing Cunningham and Merritt for a bit. Not sure that Merritt will be coming back into the fold but I do believe Cunningham is still on the table. Merritt loves Bama and his family does but his dad played at Nebraska so it's gonna be hard to bring him back. That being said, we have pivoted to Derek Meadows again (Who looks like he's thinking about flipping) and the Florida 4-star that's visiting this week.
Cunningham is likely flipping but I'd say be careful here, because it's very likely this recruitment is 100% open still. He's gonna still be visiting Bama.

Is Justice Terry all but gone?

It hinges on if we can get him back on campus IMO. He said he would attend a different game after he missed our Georgia game because of the hurricane. If he gets on campus I'd still only give us a 40% chance of landing him vs GEorgia's 50%

Flips this week ->
Cunningham
Bama -> Ole Miss
Merritt
Bama -> Nebraska
Ivan Taylor
Mich -> Bama
I'd keep an eye on Derek Meadows and the new guy from Florida we're turning the heat up on Naeshaun Montgomery over the next little bit. I'd like to remind everyone we have Cunningham visiting 5 days before ESD.
I REALLY hope we also get Justus Terry back on campus soon, I know he's still in talks but that would be a huge piece to our puzzle if we can get him on campus.
There's not a ton of other stuff. Bama may be looking to the portal to replace some other spots but otherwise this class is still kinda where it needs to be. Word is Merritt's camp wanted to go to Nebraska either way but were really unhappy we added Henry (JUCO) to the class, they think he's going to take playing time away so they went where he could get immediate playing time.

You are getting a better NIL deal.
You are looking at backing up Ryan.
That's a tough decision.

Yea, there's no problem here from me on this. We all kinda knew it would be tough to keep Cunningham as a Mississippi kid who is a priority for those two teams. When he committed to Bama I was honestly surprised because like Ffrench he was essentially visiting a school and that school was his new "BEst school ever" kinda felt like he was just going to go visiting everywhere until closer to ESD when he would make a decision.
That being said, I think our WR room is fine, we don't have to go grab 3-4 guys this year and if we need a young piece we can look in the portal somewhere like Coleman who may be looking soon.
