🏈 Very early start....

[Lyrically_N_Gaged]

I thought Blake Sims decommited?

 

[Bamabacker]

Is the LSU transfer Phelon Jones a potential CB starter or Square at DE?

 

[ElephantStomp]

He did decommit, but he's still taking his visit with us, so the possibility is there that he signs with us.

I've heard nothing but good things about Phelon, I'm expecting him to be really good.

 

[ElephantStomp]

I just got this on twitter BamaBeat I can confirm recruits Jalston Fowler and DeMarcus Milliner are on campus.At least 11 early UA enrollees expected to start classes tomorrow.

Nothing, but good news.

Is the LSU transfer Phelon Jones a potential CB starter or Square at DE?

Yeah, I actually forgot about Phelon. As for Square, he may stand a better chance than Sentimore, but I'm picking Sentimore to be this year's Marcel Dareus, so I stuck him in there.

 

[Crimson&WhiteGecko]

Blake Sims I think could get a look. Grant won't because like Argo said medical reasons.

Blake Simms has decommitted.

 

[Argo]

Blake Simms has decommitted.

Yes, that has been established. You non-thread reading lizard. :lol:

I get pretty pumped up looking at this depth chart, we still have a unbelievably solid team. Ridiculous talent everywhere you look and that's not just the one's...the two's are equally impressive.

I'm looking for Tyler Love to battle Boswell for the RT position, ultimately going down to fall camp. Warmack would be the obvious choice at LG, we shouldn't see very much drop off. That's saying a lot since Johnson IMO, is one of Bama's all-time greats at guard.

I will throw out another possible scenario. If Fluker develops into the prototypical LT that he has the potential to be, we could see Carpenter moved down to LG. We all know Carpenter had some problems with edge rushers, but predicting a R-Fresh at the crucial LT position is a little farfetched. Either way, it's going to be very interesting to see how the OL shapes up...talent and big bodies abound.

I think we have two freshman LB's that could make an impact in Stinson and Patrick, albeit they're redshirts. We already have some incredible pass rushers returning in Upshaw, Dareus and Hightower. But Stinson was an incredible edge-rusher in high school, racking up major sack numbers in his Jr and Sr year. Patrick should be a star in special teams, and both players could very well push for some valuable playing time rotating in at Jack and ILB.

Gonna be another great year. :lol:

I don't know if he'll be ready to go in the spring, but I expect Damien Square to get a lot of PT. Luther Davis should contribute at DE as well, and Kerry Murphy figures to see lots of snaps at NT.

Other than the P and K slots, it is hard to picture a true freshman winning a starting slt by next year's opener.

 

[UAgrad93]

I agree Psycho. It will be very hard to see a freshman win a starting nod this fall. This Spring should be a real dogfight in the LB and DB ranks.

 

[musso]

Has Fluker been working at guard?

i watched Fluker's interview at the BCS title media day, and he told the reporter that he'd been working at RT.

 

[musso]

We won't have many true freshman LB's on the team this year, but we have a few RS linebackers on the roster for the spring.

Petey Smith (actually grayshirt)
Ed Stinson
Tana Patrick
Jonathan Atchinson

didn't Atchinson play on special teams this year?
