I want a 300+ lbs DL and a stud MLB. However, we may be able to get those through the portal.

Hi Guest, we are working on updating the site servers and software. We're also 'forcing' everyone to read and agree to our site privacy policy and terms of service. There are no significant changes to either of these but the terms page does clarify a few things that are mostly in the legalese. You can just click the checkbox for both and continue using the site as usual! We'll update you more on the site upgrades VERY soon! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS for supporting the site and being an active participant!
I think we will end up with him. He has caught the attention of major programs this year and is going to end up a fast riser at the end. Ive on seen his junior highlights and he looked every bit a 3 star...so his senior play must be a huge improvement.We may be adding a safety to this class. As discussed before he is Jireh's teammate and was committed to Maryland.
Alabama a top contender for recently decommitted 2026 defensive back
Kalen DeBoer has more momentum on the recruiting trail. After a quiet couple of months following a brilliant summer, Alabama has positioned itself for a strongbamahammer.com
When Bama and OSU get involved you know he has skills and he must have blossomed.
6' 7" and 265 and a DL. That dude could become a monster!
"***Three-star DL Franklin Whitley (Greenville, SC): Bama247 shared in the weekend recruiting wrap coming out of the unofficial visit to Tuscaloosa (Ala.) last weekend for the Vanderbilt game that Alabama seemed to have knocked it out of the park for the 6-foot-7 prospect. That was confirmed during the conversation with his father, Will Whitley, who could not have had enough positive things to say about the experience, which included a sit down with (Kalen) DeBoer and that is holding a lot of weight.
"Alabama has made it extremely hard for other programs and I will just leave it at that. This weekend, you talk about setting the bar, it went above and beyond with setting the bar of what I want to see my son thrive in. This was a great weekend. Obviously still in the process, but I would be lying if I didn't say this was top, top, top of the list so far of our experiences."
Florida State will get Whitley on campus this weekend (Oct. 11) after offering earlier this week, while South Carolina will host the in-state target for the Gamecocks the following weekend (Oct. 18). Other schools in communication include Clemson and Florida. Back to Alabama next month for Whitley, who has seen his recruitment completely take off this fall."
A recent article from 247 on Whitley.
This gritty win today should help more recruits shutting down their recruitments. I don't anticpate any one flipping back to us
Not a flip back necessarily, but a Titan Davis flip is possible.
