Have any of this years early enrollees reported to campus?

[bama70]

I think classes start on the 8th. I was wondering if any of the early enrollees have been seen on campus.

Cam Robinson will get to campus tomorrow.

After last years situation with Demarcus Walker I will feel better when everyone is on campus and enrolled.

LOL! Man have things changed since I was a young college buck.

My first college meal in Tuscaloosa was a cheeseburger and a tall Budweiser. Still probably a safer dining option than eating sushi in west central Alabama...

I remember when I was at EMCC we'd roll down to the Chicken Shack in big ole SCOOBA, MS and if they could get the grease to 365 they'd fry it. No matter what it was.

Give me a good cheeseburger any day over sushi.

I like guys who enroll early. For one thing, that eliminates a month where we have to worry about them changing their mind and going somewhere else. It also gives them a jump on learning the system by going through spring drills.

Most importantly, it gets them on campus and in class so they can get their feet wet without the stress of football season bearing down on them. They get college credit under their belt and get acclimated to a new lifestyle.

That third one was my primary concern. I am so glad he's enrolled early. To me, he may be the best overall prospect Coach S. has recruited from a "need" standpoint. No, he's not a "Julio" headliner, but big, quick, strong, offensive left tackles are how you build championships.
I'm just impressed that eight of these guys were smart enough to graduate early. That's pretty darn impressive.

He didn't get rave reviews at this all-star game this weekend. said he was beaten consistently one on one during practice all week and that he may be better suited for guard. We'll see

My first meal in T-Town was breakfast at "Quik Snak" on University Blvd.--Two eggs over easy, grits, sausage, toast, coffee, and a glass of tomato juice. Me and my roomie probably spent $2,000.00 there in 77-78. They ran us a tab and we paid up at the end of the month. Great place to eat...great people who ran it. They loved their students. They didn't have sushi

Sushi is a fine delicacy, but in time he'll learn that the Ferg isn't the place to get it...

 

[Elwood Crimson]

Surin has good sushi! I'd still go for the burger though.

 

[CrimsonProf]

I once ordered sushi from Lai-Lai.

I still gag thinking about it.

 

[allybama2009]

I will feel better when they are in class on the 8th. Especially Sims Robinson and Brown. I think the OL and DB are a big need! rtr.

 

[TCBamafan]

The early enrollees definitely have an advantage going into fall, but that doesn't mean they are smarter than the other guys. It just means they went to a high school that uses the block system. Guys who go to schools where each class runs for the whole school year don't have the option of graduating in December. Most, if not all of them, enroll in summer school at Alabama so they can take a light load in the fall.

If so, we can likely look forward to an even better version of Chance Warmack... that's not a bad thing on the "other hand" end of the scale.

Doe an anyone confirm the Brown has arrived on campus? It has been reported that Strong at Texas is making a major push for Brown.
