Bama hosts their annual high school coaches clinic March 24-26. Coach Saban and his staff put on the best clinic in the nation. Rex Ryan, Bobby Bowden, Randy Shannon are just a few that are scheduled to speak.

Vanderbilt's new coach is scheduled to be there... in attendance.

LOL !!!!!! Good one Porter! I think BAMA had upwards of 700+ coaches last year. The number may have been even higher.

I watched this closely last year around the SEC...we had around 1200 in attendance.

I've been the last couple years and it's top notch. Compared to other schools, it's not even close.

My take from the clinic on Friday is this; Aaron Douglas either isn't ready or CNS is punishing him for the DUI he received in December. I watched the O-line workout Friday and the LT spot was held in this order; McCullough, Love, then Douglas.
Jesse Williams is a MONSTER!!! The kid is huge and moves like a cat. He seems to be a quick learner and no doubt will be on the field making plays this Fall. Both he and Dial were working with the 2s. Dial is no slouch himself!
Stinson is another Upshaw with about 15 more lbs on him. Stinson's move to end looks like the perfect fit for him. I don't know if it was a certain package but you had Stinson, Chapman, and Square running together with Upshaw at Jack.
Sims and McCarron both looked good. Sims looks so fluid throwing the ball and AJ looks to be that leader that CNS demands at the position. This battle isn't going to end anytime soon.
Maze and Hanks continue to impress and it looks like some of the young "bucks" are stepping up. Gibson,Norwood and others are coming on. It has been awhile since that much talent has been at receiver.
Dee Hart is going to have a big impact on the season. In drills, he is running right there with Richardson mirroring him. He looks to be in Trent's shadow.

Thanks for the info....

Any news on Cory Grant? I was hoping he would come in and earn some playing time but I never here his name.

I didn't see Cory, but then again, I was looking in just the areas I mentioned earlier. They ran out of the rosters before I got in the gate. I had certain areas that I was interested in an I stuck with those.

I need to add that Jay Williams was punting ahead of Cody Mandell. Jay may have gotten his consistency problems out of the way. He was thumping some high and deep ones for the return guys. I noticed Maze and Hart back fielding punts but I imagine there were others.
