A few tidbits for this wednesday morning

  • I didn't get a lot done at 247Sports yesterday. I had a guy stop by the offices in Nashville that has been directly connected to the Tide program in Tuscaloosa for many years. We caught up for a couple hours and he shared a lot of interesting information on some of the current players and incoming freshmen. Ill drop a few tidbits throughout the day. Nothing is really ground breaking, but interesting nonetheless.

    nothing formal. 5 or 6 interesting tidbits that should definitely be good conversation starters for the Round Table today for those that want to talk Tide football.

  • Lucky - have you received any vibes on Haha Dix? He is such a talent, but it seems the majority of the talk surrounds Collins/Sunseri. Is he not picking up the trust of the coaches fast enough?

    I did ask a defensive coach about Haha a couple/few months ago when all of the corner talk was being rumored. This coach said "safety all the way" and "he's going to be a very good one." Outside of that, I don't really have any other news. Pretty sure all is well. Haha has a high ceiling.

    I think Collins and Sunseri are more interchangeable as "in the box" types, while HCD is more of a centerfielder.

    Douché!

  • Awesome thread!

    That's interesting and pretty cool about Vinnie. I follow recruiting closely but am not as "in the know" about prospects as others are on here. I admit that I just assumed Vinnie was given a scholarship because he was a coach's son, I really didn't know anything else about him other than he was, on the surface, not the same type of elite recruit we had been signing at DB. He really opened my eyes early on ST's last year though when he basically sacrificed his body and nearly decapitated that PSU player. I watched him pretty closely after that and I gotta say he is one of my favorite young players. He seems smart, is very physical, very energetic and you can tell he would do anything for that team. It's great to hear he will factor heavily into our defense this coming season and it's impressive given the sick amount of talent we have at safety. Good for him.

    Also, very encouraging news about Fanning. Not that he has been overlooked but most of the discussion about young defensive talent has focused on Haha, Depriest, Collins...and apparently Fanning is the one who is really showing out. Am I right in that he is a DE all the way? We have great depth there for 2012 so it'd be nice if his emergence could help facilitate a move by Williams or someone to DT where we need some playmakers. Great to hear he is doing so well and that the DE position is in good shape for the future.

    Thanks, Lucky! Keep it coming! I wish every thread could be like this one or like Ethan's...love that inside scoop.

    I think HaHa will be in position to take over for Lester after this season. I think he and vinnie would compliment each other very well and then throw in Landon and the Safety positions are set for years to come. I think vinnie wins the starting job starting out this season though.
