*** Vanderdoes ready for Bama official

  • http://alabama.247sports.com/Article/Alabama-visits-5-star-defensive-lineman-Eddie-Vanderdoes-111438

    Alabama defensive line coach Chris Rumph was in-home with five-star DL Eddie Vanderdoes. Get inside for the latest on the nation's top defensive tackle.

    Love it - thanks for the update.

    Vanderdoes was very, very impressive at the Army All-American game & would be a remarkable force as a Bama defensive end.

    Elite athletes like this clearly embrace competition & don't deny their God-given abilities for one second.

  • Do you really want to aspire to play like one of Notre Dame's front 7? Who are those coaches kidding? Do they think no one watched the national championship game? They took a bunch of highly recruited guys and coached them down. They looked like they didn't belong in the FBS much less the BCS.

    I think the Marcel Dareus comparison is an enticing one.

  • Would also love to have this guy. Could open California even more for Bama. We need more schollies.

  • think it's funny that both Coaching Staff's visited him on the same night. Wonder if one group was sitting in their car in front of the house waiting on the other to leave. haha

    Hope we get the Big Fella!

    Yes, and as was the case entering the championship game, the Notre Dame guys stood by quaking in their shorts, watching while the Bama guys entered the arena.

  • If this guy wants in, we find a way for him, Tunsil, Bell, Kamara to get in...grey shirt somebody, I am sure there will be some hurt feelings, but you don't bypass studs like this, you make room.

  • Perfect fit in our system and on our line at DE. Love the fact that we get the last visit! At the top of my wish list for D Lineman!

  • So is it possible to sign Vanderdoes, Tunsil, Kamara, Bell, Liner, Foster, Adams, Poggi? How does Texas AM have 34 commits and were talking like we can only fit a few more and we only have 21 commits.

  • So if were cutting off at 25 then i want Vanderdoes, Liner, Tunsil, and Foster. Im from Ridgeland and Bell is good but after watching him play every friday he's nothing we dont have or cant find next year. Heck we already have Ha Ha, Sunseri, Collins, Williams, and that 27 year old baseball player. Kamara would be nice but were stacked at RB as well. I want the trench fighters, some of them big hog mollies on the OL and DL.

    Spot on comments. This is the place to commit if you want to improve , showcase your talent to a national audience and go first round. No one will do a better job of welcoming you and your family and maximizing your God given talent. Come to Bama and RollTide.

    Lebron James will never be as good as Michael Jordan, thus we should get rid of his nickname, "The King".

    I agree and after watching him in the All Star game last week I was reminded of Marcell performing with the Tide all those years. He would be a force if he joins the tide class of 2013. Gotta make up your mind young man, the vacancies are slipping away quickly. Roll Tide!argue

    No way. For one, I don't see us being able to sweep those guys. We will take between 2-4 depending on who they are.

    I am of the feeling that Foster isn't happening and if he wants a spot, I believe he has been informed that he needs to take it now and not wait.

    Vanderdoes and Tunsil are the 2 guys that can commit whenever they want and room will be made, if needed. I think both are 50/50 at best. Would love to get Vanderdoes.

    Liner already has his spot, IMO so I think you can count us at 22, with 1-3 more spots available.

    Even with the news of us being on top for Kamara now, he is one guy that I just won't believe until we have him. I have just thought all along that he would be at UGA.

    Would have thought we would have heard more on Poggi if he was flipping by now as well.

    Adams to me isn't in the fold. I think he is too concerned with a few things. One being being a NG and another being that he wants to play right away.
