greg mcelroy, carroll hs., southlake, tx. redshirt fr.--only started at qb his sr year in hs and won state title. we Really thought he'd play some this year. Saban already stated ALL jobs are open come spring.
t. farmer from houston, fr db. as far as i know didn't play any thing year, unless it was special teams.
e. anders-from smithson valley hs, san antonio, so. lb. i think he played some special teams this year.
mcelroy and anders came in under shula. fanuzzi and farmer came to play for saban. fanuzzi is one of the guys that cause a pretty big storm. he verbally committed someplace else, visited Bama with saban and was ready to sign right away.

the kids TX has from Alabama are from the Mobile area? would be my guess. shula gave away that area to TX, Lsu and the barn. saban's second full day on the job, he hopped the plane to Mobile and spent 3 days down there repairing damage left by shula. Lsu has KILLED Bama with Mobile players the last few years.

right now the Bama roster has To many kids from fla and ga. saban should win the state back this year or next for sure. then he can cherry pick tn, fla, ga, ms and la, occasionally the rest of the country. they are already cherry picking ms. pretty well. the ut fans are Really after fat-phil. saban has verbals from the top 2 players in tn.
the Alabama roster being big majority of in state kids has always been the key. they understand "it" and teach or lead the out of state kids. thats NOT happening right now.

Makes sense.
Thought Georgia might be fruitful.

We know Saban can recruit.

Strangely enough Mack Brown does his "cherry picking" in California.

Side note: Jamaal Charles has not said if he will return or enter the pros...
There is no flippin way this kid is close to ready for the NFL. He will get thrown around like a rag doll. We even take him out when blocking is required. You think Texas would leave him in for a draw or possible screen threat since the kid can score from anywhere on the field, but his blocking is so bad they sit him.

charles has a decision to make, be a all-conference track champion or put on some muscle and weight and be the 2nd fastest HB in the country and good nfl prospect.
first fastest might be derrick locke from UK.

He quit track. And he has muscled up.
I just cant believe he could be talked
into leaving at his size and inability to catch passes
and bad blocking. And he does not return
punts or kickoffs. That leaves... nada except a 1st down
running back.

You think he might look at a much better football
player in Reggie Bush and do a double take. He has
so much to improve on I would think the advice would
be stay and learn; you are not even a three down back
on a college team.

But it probably would have.

Mack answer this:
1. Why is your stepson on the sideline?
2. Why is half your team on the field during a play?
3. Why is your stepson on the field making the call for the refs?
4. Why is your stepson attempting to pick up a live ball?
5. Why did you attempt to tackle your stepson 2 seconds to late?

It could have been a huge mess for this "kid" and Brown.
Life is funny that way, now they can all go back and laugh about it.
