    Scout 2013 updated rankings by position

    Really interesting perspective BET. In addition to the fact that it is cheaper, a subscription to insider also gets you access to all the other premium content on ESPN. DRL, thanks for posting the link.

    Scout 2013 updated rankings by position

    They also have a great scouting report for each player. You used to be able to read the full report for free, but now you have to be an insider. Their tide site is also developing nicely. If they continue to get more and more unique content on that site, I'll have to consider becoming an insider.

    Scout 2013 updated rankings by position

    We can agree to disagree about who is the best , but I don't think there is any debate about who is the worst (Scout), unless, of course, you throw maxpreps into the equation. Maxpreps is painfully bad. As an example, they ranked Gunner Kiel #2, Zeke Pike #50 and Eddie Williams #83 overall...

    Question: One Player to Make Biggest Strides

    Here's an off-the-wall one: Tyler Love. If he puts it all together this year (which happens all the time with seniors, remember, not everyone develops at the same speed) our offensive line will be able to better survive a string of injuries on the offensive line like we had in 2010...

    Question: One Player to Make Biggest Strides

    Very true about AJ for last year. The question on this thread is, if you could handpick the one player you most want to see make big improvements, who would it be. In other words, (other than AJ), who would you most like to see go from okay to good, good to great, or great to elite. (and yes...

    Question: One Player to Make Biggest Strides

    Kind of surprised by those answers (not that I disagree). I figured the next three players named would be Cyrus Kouandjio, Jessie Williams and [insert WR].

    Question: One Player to Make Biggest Strides

    If you could handpick one player (other than McCarron) to make the biggest strides from 2011 to 2012, who would it be? In other words, whose progress do you think will have the biggest impact on our ability to repeat? It's a tough call, and if we get a little more than is expected from any...

    News Article: Florida State Preparing the Ground for Expansion Battle

    The market argument is so overstated. Let's compare Missouri and Florida State. Now let's assume that with Florida State we wouldn't get any additional viewers in the Florida market because we already have that market on lockdown. Let's also assume that if we took Missouri we would increase...

    Link: QB Jameis Winston Updates: It's Announcement Day

    I completely agree that we have got to do a better job with the in-state talent against Florida State. However, don't forget about Eddie Williams who we stole right out of their backyard. Same with Chris Black if we land him.

    Question about Keith Marshall

    A little while ago, Marshall tweeted that he wanted to visit Alabama. Twitter I was just curious whether he has visited yet, or if that would be his first time.

    QB Gunner Kiel Updates

    "He did mention it's a long drive. Said he drove it himself to see how far it was for visit." Interesting to hear that he is thinking about distance. Columbus, Indiana to: Norman, OK - 13 hours and 3 minutes Tuscaloosa, AL - 7 hours and 45 minutes Columbia, MO - 6 hours and 48 minutes...

    Link: Espnu 150

    That's true. I think their player evaluations are much better, but they do not follow the rumor mill as much. Basically, they make a top 5 list for each player and anyone not on that list is not listed under "interested." Additionally, they rarely update the lists unless they get information...

    Haha, not sure. This is how the conversation started: Comment from Roy: Please give me an explanation on Zeke Pike being a 5 star some places and a 3 star here. Tom Luginbill: Roy, I was soooooo hoping this question would come up.

    True, but what will make this class historic is what happens in the top 7 since we will player a factor in the decision of 6 of the top 7, and what happens at the QB position. If we can get 3 of the top 7 and Kiel or Winston, wow. Truthfully, I think we can land 15 of the top 150.

    Tom Luginbill in response to a question about Zeke Pike being a 3-star: "Watch Pike on tape and watch him in person which I have done in person on 3 separate occasions. I feel very confident we got this one right. Also, if you want to compare for yourself. Go to Youtube, watch QB Nate Sudfeld...

    Of our 12 commits, 9 are 4-stars or better (Rivals only has 5). I know most people tend to follow rivals more than ESPN, but I have actually been more of an ESPN fan for the last 3 years. If you pay attention, rivals rankings tend to trend more in the direction of ESPN as they make updates...

    Link: SEC adopts "roster management" rules to address oversigning in football

    re: SEC adopts "roster management" rules to address oversigning in football Scholarship Cap Will all due respect, this does not take away a single scholarship. At the end of the day, each team can have 85 players on scholarship, regardless of how many players it signs per year. I also...

    QB Jameis Winston Updates

    Listen, when I first read that he said that, I cringed a tad. But, you have to remember that these kids don't come up with this stuff on their own. You think Terrelle Pryor, and others didn't plant that seed? Right after Star Jackson transferred you heard all sorts of comments about that...
