Couldn't Coach Saban use UGAs O-line injuries as a selling point for us; i.e. our S&C is a stronger program. They were injured and struggled to get back in action, but we had an injury to Andre and to Terrance and they were back in a couple weeks. Come to Bama and we will have you in the best shape possible, so you will be less likely to get injured.
I sincerely believe that Coach would not stoop to the degree of flaming an opponent's problems or anything negative. He doesn't need to...we're the best...:)

Coach Saban is only going to talk about what he, his staff, and Alabama can offer the prospect. He's never going to go down any other road. Many of last year's signees talked about how refreshing it was to be recruited by Coach Saban, while other SEC programs tried to talk down the competition.

I was listening to Randy Kennedy's show on WNSP last night and he said that he felt that we had room for one more offensive lineman and that it would come down to Massie or William Campbell. The first one to take the spot would get it. He seemed to think that we have a legitimate shot at Campbell.

We'll take Massie regardless of the situation. He's that good. :)

I really think Moses and Massie are ours to lose, based on some things I am reading on another internet board--and I think we would take both of them if they both accepted offers. I also bet they both start next year. How about the two "M/M's" as their official nickname?:biggrin:

Considering their size, they may have to be known as the "Peanut M&M's"

Would love to get both Massie and Moses. But I think DJ Fluker might have
something to say about who starts.

Could you elaborate at all on what you have been reading?

I would love to have both Massie and Moses sign with Bama along with D.J. Fluker. That would be an embarrassment of OT riches. I just don't see it happening. I think it will be either Massie or Moses to go with Fluker but not both of them.

I'm just hoping we can get 1 of them. I've always felt confident we could get Massie, but right now I'm really thinking UGA's got a really great shot at him.

I haven't heard anything on us regarding Moses lately. I do know the staff has said they'd like him to redshirt and he wants early pt, but who knows?

Not really, I wasn't given any more information other than that both of them are in play and that there is a real possibility we could get both. I think most of us would receive that prospect rather skeptically, but then again you have to consider who is doing the recruiting.

I dont know if we will get Mr. Massie but one thing i feel sure about is that we are about to overtake UGA in recruiting where they have had a tremendous advantage over us the last 7-8 years. They are already feeling the presence of Coach Saban on their recruiting in Georgia and it is only going to get moreso that way.

These young men are starting to realize that if they get on board with Coach Saban they are going to be part of something very special plus he will prepare them to be the best professional players they can be.

I honestly think we are going to start getting 5 star recruits from outside the southeast on a regular basis from here on out due to our Coaching staff.

These young men are smart. They want to get better and they want to win.

I still think we edge out UGA for Massie especially if Searles leaves to go to the Barn. Moses still seems like an outside shot but if we luck up and nab him too....WOW. Moses could move to guard where some experts think he has a better upside. The line in two years could be like to unstoppable force and the immovable object all in one.

I think Coach Richt is having nightmares that Coach Saban might just take the best two prospects in Georgia, Branden Smith and Darren Myles. Both of them at one time were considered UGA leans, but I believe Saban is having them think twice about where they will sign.

I agree.

I think Fluker will sign with Alabama for sure and I feel really good about landing Massie. I do not think we get Moses.
