I am not a member but it would appear from the photo he is going to predict Bama to land at least 1 recruit.

We made the top 10 for Colben Landrew. While technically he is from Georgia he was at Thompson HS in Alabaster, AL last year.

Bio?

Bio?

Do a google search. His older brother almost signed with us, signed with Michigan State instead, and was a one and done. He was selected in the first round in the draft this year.

Wow, that's surprising considering he is 20 min down the road from UA.. Good luck to him!

This isn't a commentary on his situation... for I know nothing and have heard nothing about it. However, sometimes staying near home brings a lot of issues. There's sometimes people who have close relationships with athletes through high school that, for the good of the player, needs to be left behind. That's been the case prior to NIL, but I can only imagine it's gotten worse in today's environment. If we don't see a push from UA for this kid, we can assume that's a possible reason. In the end, though we'd like every kid like this to end up at the Capstone, sometimes it's better for the kid to go elsewhere.

Worked for Mark Sears AND Bama. Of course, this scenario wouldn't apply if he's a One & Done.

Sears left Alabama for 2 years then came back. Plus, Florence is a good bit farther away from Tuscaloosa then where this guy is from.
