RB / ATH Alvin Kamara Updates

[Tidetwin]

Kirby Smart, Mike Bobo and a host of other coaches were in Norcross last night to watch Kamara and his teammates take it to a pretty good Colquitt County team led by Russ Probst.
Kamara rushed for over 100 yards, broke a swing pass for a 60-yard touchdown by splitting 3-4 defenders and showed a great deal more speed and toughness than I knew he had. He is a much better player than I thought he was and with Kirby in the house last night, it would appear that we are still very interested in his services.

Thanks for the update. I think Alvin wants to play with us if there's room. He's been a priority of Georgia's but still hasn't committed.

Some rumors online that he committed to UA tonight. Can't confirm this but I know that most people think UA leads for him. Looked good in the all star game and could make an impact as a slot wr

He got great reviews at the all star game. You can always find a spot for an athlete if RB is filled up.

He denied the rumors on Twitter shortly thereafter.

I believe Kamara ends up in our class. Just my opinion.

 

[RollTide1224]

We should send him another 7,000 letters and see if that seals the deal. If not then there is no pleasing him.

Are we recruiting Russ?? :wink:

Are you referring to The former Hoover Head Coach, Rush Propst? I knew he was in GA but didn't know what sort of success he was having.

Yes Rush is at Colquitt now and doing very well.

Yeah, I was. Thanks for the correction. I should have watched more MTV.

According to Scout, Kamara is set to make his visit to the good guys on the 19th then to the pups here in GA on the 26th

Richt with his timing. Interesting that Saban and Smart are doing an in home tonight with Kamara. Who is visiting this weekend for his OV. All signs are pointing to Kamara to UA even with UGA getting the last OV. So today CMR announces to the media that:

RB Ken Malcome is thinking about transferring

Trying to sell to Kamara that the depth chart is better at UGA.

 

[CrimsonEyeshade]

Georgia has a lot riding here. No Nkemdiche. No Lawson. And neck and neck with Clemson over Adams and us with Foster and Kamara. Yes, they have 30-plus commitments. But Richt could whiff on the top in-state kids. Inexplicable.

Bingo. Five yards from a national championship, and Richt could have a lot of explaining to do in recruiting just three months later. Be interesting to see how things play out for UGA (and others) regarding Foster, Kamara, and Adams.

Going to be an interesting couple of weeks either way. 'Bama will be going head-to-head against Georgia over several key recruits come NSD.

Ironic that probably the biggest recruit for both schools is Tunsil.

I would love to see Tunsil in Crimson next year. Yes, Kamara too, but I really want to see Tunsil at BAMA .

Feeling really good about Kamara. Says he will not take another visit. Just returned from UGA and was quoted as saying did not feel as comfortable as he did at UA.

Plus this:

Andrew Bone ‏@AndrewJBone

#UGA making Johnathan Ford feel like a "priority" tonight. McClendon and Friend have called. Another coach beeped in and Richt is calling.

I really hope we get Kamara. He compared himself to Percy Harvin and he does in a lot of ways. I think he would give us something either at RB or slot we have not had in the past few years.

Cyrus Jones was compared to Percy Harvin last year, too.
