📝 Current, and possible, 5 star ranked players in the 2013...

[TerryP]

The final #247Composite is out today and Alabama has commitments (or enrolled) from four 5 stars that are both five stars from 247Sports and the industry generated 247Composite.

That's probably a pretty good validation on these 4 superstar prospects and a solid validation of the strength of the 2013 class:


Highest Rated:


1. Derrick Henry (5-star)
Ranked #12 nationally by 247Sports and 247Composite


2. Jonathan Allen (5-star)
Ranked #11 by 247Sports and #17 247Composite


3. O.J. Howard (5-star)
Ranked #20 by 247Sports and #19 247Composite


4. Robert Foster (5-star)
Ranked #18 247Sports and #23 247Composite


Alabama has a chance at more unanimous 5-stars


Laremy Tunsil
Ranked #3 247Sports and #4 247Composite


Reuben Foster
Ranked #15 247Sports and #6 247Composite


Eddie Vanderdoes
Ranked #6 247Sports and #7 247Composite


Montravius Adams
Ranked #10 by 247Sports and 247Composite


Vonn Bell
Ranked #29 247Sports and #27 247Composite


Tony Conner
Ranked #25 247Sports and #32 247Composite

Terry, out of the possibles, who do you think we land? I think we get Bell and Foster. I think we finish a close 2nd on the others.

 

[Kirk Van de Graaff]

I think Bell is ours, Foster a big lean our way and it wouldn't surprise me if Adams or Conner swung our way. I would love to get Conner.

Birdman, from your list, I'll give these predictions. They come off of what I have read from various sites, twitter, etc.
Adams is a supposed lean to Clemson and will likely end there.
Bell is ours.
Conner will stay in state and go to Ole Miss. With the talent they are drawing, the NCAA may come snooping.
Foster, who knows with this kid. He may sign with us, he may go back to UGA to play with friends, or the Barn greases the palm.
Kamara will be UGA I believe, simply because Richt likes to make some flashy promises to a kid and he bites. He did it with Crowell that he would get the first carries in the first game. He did just that.
Liner is ours.
Thomas will go to FSU in the end.
Tunsil is a guy that I think goes to UGA. I'm sure they are telling him that our shelves are stocked and that he won't see the field for a yr while he can play immediately in Athens. Derrick Henry is good friends with Tunsil and I hope that can be the swing vote.
Vanderdoes could be one that surprises people and Rolls with the Tide. A long time USC verbal, he decommitted and has been looking hard in this direction. USC still thinks they get him back but recruiting guys think BAMA pulls him.

The rich get richer, and all the usual one liners.

I'm pretty excited about Howard, if he's able to hold his own blocking, he's a big weapon off that line in a year or so.
