Alabama Commits & Prospects To Watch on Tonight's Under Armour Game

Thursday on ESPN & ESPN3: Under Armour All-America Game, 7:30 p.m. ET/6:30 p.m. CT

Tropicana Field • St. Petersburg, FL

WHITE TEAM (BLUR)
No. Name Pos. Ht. Wt. School College
7 Eddie Williams DB/WR 6-3 205 Arnold (Fla.) Alabama – will most likely play WR
12 Chris Black WR 5-11 165 First Coast (Fla.) Alabama
19 Reggie Ragland ILB 6-3 245 Bob Jones (Ala.) Alabama
22 Amari Cooper WR 6-1 185 Miami Northwestern (Fla.) Alabama
44 Dakota Ball DT 6-2 290 Pepperell (Ga.) Alabama
58 Brandon Greene OT 6-5 290 Cedar Grove (Ga.) Alabama







5 Cyrus Jones DB/WR 5-10 180 Gilman School (Md.) Undecided - Bama or Virginia Tech, will announce tonight
8 Jameis Winston QB 6-3 190 Hueytown (Ala.) Florida State - soft verbal, still looking at Bama
11 Channing Ward DE 6-3 230 Aberdeen (Miss.) Undecided - Ole Miss, Miss St, Bama, will announce tonight
85 Korren Kirven DT 6-3 270 Brookville (Va.) Undecided - Bama, Auburn, Florida







BLACK TEAM (HIGHLIGHT)
No. Name Pos. Ht. Wt. School College
2 Landon Collins S 6-1 202 Dutchtown (La.) Undecided - Bama or LSU, will announce tonight
17 Kwon Alexander LB 6-2 215 Oxford (Ala.) Undecided – Bama, Auburn, LSU; may have waited too long for Bama
58 Eddie Goldman DT 6-4 310 Collegiate Academy (D.C.) Undecided - Bama or FSU
92 Jordan Jenkins DE 6-3 228 Harris County (Ga.) Undecided - Bama or UGA

Also of note:

RB Keith Marshall will play for the White team. He committed to UGA and their fans are already putting too much expectation on him the same way they did on Isaiah Crowell a year ago.

2-star Deion Sanders Jr. who has one offer (Houston) will be playing. I am SURE who his dad is has nothing to do with his selection to the team. /sarcasm.

i doubt we take barry sanders.

We have two backs already committed. Both of which are very, very talented.

He says his choices are down to Stanford, FSU, Alabama and Okl State

IMHO, it’s between Stanford & OSU.

He will play in the Army All-Star game on Saturday (NBC, noon CT). He is supposed to announce then.

Thirteen and counting

by CB969 on Jan 5, 2012 10:48 AM CST up reply actions  

Barry Jr. waited too long

I doubt he even has a Bama offer by now. I mean schools will take em back if you wait and they get someone else. He is good, but he ain’t MI or TR good.

If Auburn was in New Mexico and we never played them I would still hate them and their dumb coach and their cheating players.

Never hurts to have more in the stable.

We all thought we had enough running backs before attrition this year.

transfers are a part of attrition.

But, I still don’t think we’ll be taking 3 backs in this class.

My early/late Christmas wish list is:

Collins, Goldman, Jones and Ward.
Collins is just sick.
Goldman b/c you just can’t have too many athletic D-linemen.
Jones b/c he reminds me of a football version of Andruw Jones (former Braves centerfielder). He’s just smooth.
And Ward b/c he’s been considered a barn lean. Anything to “REC” those d-bags.

Channing Ward

He eliminated Auburn about a week or so ago. He is an Ole Miss lock anyhow.

Quick question...

Talent can only get you so far. Give me a player who has less talent, but the heart of a champion and the will to succeed.

Anyone remember that Eddie Williams was the first to give us a verbal for the 2012 class?

Watching the ESPN film of Bama’s Spring training program sealed the deal for him.

I'll say this...

Jameis Winston looks like a fine young man. He’s cocky, but hilarious. Regardless of what he does, I personally wish him the best.

did everybody read this article about AJ McCarron when he was young and almost had a fatal accident. It also explains the chest tattoo.

Some LSU commit tweeted that Collins is going to pick LSU...

who knows what that means. I’ll wait to hear from him when he actually picks.

Do we even have room for Collins if we are hoping for Goldman, Jones and Winston?

by Kenny483 on Jan 5, 2012 6:22 PM CST via mobile up reply actions  

Are we doing a game thread for this game?

Either way, I’d really like some relatively real-time info on who announces for whom. How many hours until kickoff?
