Funny story..ran into a Bama booster while reppin the Y and he mentioned...

Tell him to not be worried.

I mean, I'm not holding my breath, but he's come to byu several times on his own

He's not going to byu, but he's not going to Alabama either.

Sweet, tell me mastermind about all your H.S. recruiting knowledge.

Doesn't look like much of an Alabama commit to me

If Najee Harris dropped Bama for BYU (not likely, I know...)

But if Williams has the year that we hope he can still have, why wouldn't Harris

TheLoneCougar

If he likes BYU's culture (which we assume is yes), it'd be a great place to be

Best thing we could offer is you play day one. No sitting for a year or two...

whiteninja

I think that is a real option. I haven't seen anything from Canada saying that

TheLoneCougar

9/30/16 10:44am

You'd think that Bama would learn to offer this after they missed Bo Jackson for this reason

May not be flashy? It's downright terrible.

It's not any worse than it's been in recent years.

Frank Castiglione

9/30/16 9:24am

Yes it is. 2015 was poor as well, but 2014 and 2016 were both good classes.

Pimpin4Paradise

9/30/16 10:17am

I think this class has the potential to be about on par with 2014.

Frank Castiglione

9/30/16 10:24am

Serious? Curious what you think was wrong with 2015? Or do you just mean

I might have seen it wrong, but the point still stands. This year is tending to

This is what he said about BYU...

Storminmormon60

If he's interested in a place with Poly influence, there's a great chance this

Pimpin4Paradise

These also aren't "just" 4 star guys. They're already

southernfriedcougar

9/30/16 2:36pm

Yep, both would be very good gets. Any top 300 guy is.

I don't think he was a 5 star. Just the #1 QB but pretty low in the top 100.

You're right. He was a 4-star according to ESPN & Rivals

He was downgraded after committing to BYU. If he would have gone to Washington,
