Great read Jess, as usual. Which recruit makes a "Dontae Hightower" type impact next year? How do you see these line recruits contributing next year? Is there a recruit that Alabama took that you are still scratching your head about? Your opinion is always appreciated.

Good write up Jess. We appreciate it. The SEC really cleaned up in recruiting this season and to see Bama at the top of the SEC in recruiting is simply amazing.

If Hightower gets made into part of the discussion at Jack, then either Chris Jordan, Prince Hall or Nico Johnson is going to start at MLB.

Best places for rookies to make an impact this year: weakside DE, Jack (or MLB if Hightower goes to Jack), free safety and star corner on defense; on offense, running back, receiver, left tackle and right guard.

Jess - speaking of the Mike, do you think that Petey Smith will redshirt?

Not Jess but, the odds are good that Smith does indeed redshirt IMHO. He needs work on his coverage skills.
