The 247 composite shows the Alabama class is a tiny bit down from some previous years, which floated in the 310-320 range (307 now), but this is an improvement over last years 301.

OSUn's current 300 is one of the higher marks a program not named "Alabama" has had in the last few years. It also has room to expand, as it's only based on 17 players. I have no idea how many players OSUn is looking to pick up.

And 2-3 of your 5*'s have a good chance at flipping away. OSU is having maybe the best recruiting year on record though. People forget how good Bama is at recruiting. They are a little down this year, now if they lose Leatherwood(I think he sticks) and Harris(feeling optimistic he flips to Michigan, but I may be biased)? They will probably have the 3rd ranked class behind the B10 schools.

now, was this concert on the stream for Wilson, or did you actually go to a high school concert?
Click to expand...

It was on the stream for Wilson. I normally try to get into them a few minutes early to see the buildup and what-not, so I got in a little before 11:15, then he announced at 11:50ish. He was supposed to announce at 11:30, but I guess I just need to learn that these things are rarely on time.

Ouch.. Kirby earned his payday for pulling that one out.

Filiaga is almost guaranteed now I guess for you all.. and you still have Ruiz coming.

Think I heard tOSU numbers are only around 19-20.

Not surprised. Chubb has arguably had the biggest stock fall of the season. He was a preseason Heisman trophy candidate. By the end of the year not a whisper.

Not that he would be drafted in like round 6 or something now. He'd still go relatively high. Yet his draft stock had to have fallen. Come back and try round two with the coach and qb.
Click to expand...

Yeah from what Chubb said he's coming back not so much because of draft stock as once he made his mind up to come back, he didn't want to look at the draft grades. He's coming back because of a disappointing junior year and because he feels like he has unfinished business. If it makes you feel better, the game against GT was mentioned.

Word out of Michigan is that Kirby Smart played up the Rams rumors and was offering his HS coaches jobs to get Wilson away from Michigan. I know Harbaugh does shit like this too, but man do I sometimes hate recruiting.

Don't how we can complain when Michigan brought on Bush Sr and Partridge. Sucks to lose a recruiting battle but Michigan still has a good recruiting class.

Congrats to Uga for the pickup. And I don't mean UGA. I mean Uga. He's had a rough couple of years, the lil guy deserves a few wins.

I'm sure it had nothing to do with him having an invisible year.

Think he also mentioned his year being disappointing. Think his average YPC was 4.8 this year after around 8 the previous two seasons.

I don't think that was his fault, the OL couldn't run block well at all. Still, undoubtedly affected his numbers.

Yeah, I really don't think it was his fault at all. He looked pretty damn healthy when he was able to find a crease.

His injury was one of the most stomach turning, amplified by the timing of it. I'd like to see him have a solid year next year minus the game in Jacksonville.

Thanks for setting it up. Also, why am I hearing from NPR via my wife that Minnesota will be boycotting their bowl game? This recruiting talk is getting out of hand.

It was asked about yesterday but glossed over.

10 Gophers players were suspended by the school. They were not arrested or charged with anything. That is all I know.

They were involved in a sexual assault charge earlier in the year which got dropped.

Team had a meeting with the AD and president and were not satisfied with the answers received.

God I hope not.

All of a sudden, A1 told someone to turn off the bedroom light and shut the door, The next
thing RS . knew, A1 A5 and another unknown man were jostling to shove their penises into
RS mouth. They took turns and pushed each other out of the way. They were forceful. At
some point, A1 was trying to put his penis into her mouth from the left side, another man was
doin·g the same from the right side and A5 was above this other man on the tight side
masturbating above RS head. At the same time, another person who RS cannot identify
was having vaginal sex with her.
During much of this encounter, RS could not talk because one of the men's penises was in her
mouth. However, at other times, RS . was able to say that it hurt and she wanted to stop. The
men repeatedly responded by flipping her into a different position, telling her it would be over
soon and being more forceful. RS believed that she may have tTied to shove the men away
from her.
Then, A 1 took control and began having fast, rough and hard vaginal sex with RS :, RS .
found it very painful. RS repeatedly told A1 to stop. He responded by saying "be quiet" or
"shush" or something similar and flipping her to another position and becoming more forceful.
A 1 held RS down by her shoulders and upper arms when he was on top of her during vaginal
sex. At some point) he flipped her onto her hands and knees and had vaginal sex with her from
behind her. RS believes that A5 and/or other men may have remained in the bedroom. In
particular, she recalls someone standing in the corner near her clothes.
At some point, A1 and the two unknown men left the room. A5 stayed bel1ind. A5 forced
RS to give him oral sex. He controlled RS head by pulling on her hair. RS remembers
thinking that her hair was going to rip out of her head. A5 ejaculated from oral sex and RS
remembers that there was semen all over her and his hands.

..

2 recalled, "from the stuff she said, it didn't seem like she
was into it. She said something and [the men present] decided it was messed up . . . She said
something that made it. seem like it wasn't the right thing to be doing.

The lights were turned off. RS saw A12 and then said, "I don't want to"
and "this is too many people" and "don't send people in here." RS repeatedly said that
she was in pain. A5 did not respond by stopping or changing his activities. A12
reported that it did not look like A5 was doing anything out of the ordinary with RS
A12 did not think tl1at RS . was trying to physically push AS away. A12 ultimately
concluded that "it didn't feel right , .. Sometimes it didn't seem like she was into it."

USC-A rolls on.


Alex Scarborough
ESPN Staff Writer

Alabama has hired former USC coach Steve Sarkisian to replace Lane Kiffin as offensive coordinator. Sarkisian, who has been an analyst on staff most of the season, will also coach quarterbacks. "He has a tremendous offensive mind and is someone we believe will do a great job," Saban said in a statement.

Guys, I like nothing more in the world than watching high school players commitment videos.

Anyone else feel the same way as me?

My favorite move is when they pick up one hat and then toss it away to pick up another hat!

It's best when they have a live animal with them at the commitment. Especially when it's a pug when they're committing to a school where the mascot is a bulldog.

Eh. She hit him.

Wish he hadn't reacted that way. Still, keep your hands to yourself. Me having twice the strength you do doesn't mean I need to be cool with you assaulting me.

Congrats to Sark. The rumors he'd fallen off the wagon appear to have been false. Glad he's getting a second chance.

Wut? Did we watch the same video? At any point should it have reached where it did? Like, in my mind, barring truly being assaulted with a weapon is what that dude did okay. He was in no way being threatened and his actions just showed a young man that felt like he had to prove somethinng to show he shouldn't be disrespected. Dude shouldn't have even gone inside.

Watch it again, he says something, she pushes him, he reacts like he's goong to hit her then she hits again in retaliation and then he cold cocks her. Nope. He needs to be better than that. Sorry. No excuses for that shit. Even if it was some petty assed dude he sucksr punches. It just isn't acceptable behavior.

Walk away. Be a better person. Leave your machismo bull shit at home. You dont respond to someone flicking your arm with a knife or a gun do you?

Yeah you can say she shouldn't have reached to him sure, but looking at the video she walked away he followed her in. It shouldn't have gotten that far.

I will never give anyone the benefit when they respond like that. We should hold everyone to higher standards.

Fucking piece of shit sure knew to walk away after he floored her though.

Fuck Oklahoma for even playing this piece of shit.

His response to being slapped was so far over the top it is unreal.

I'm not advocating either party's actions. But telling the person who didn't even incite the incident to walk away and be the better person while giving the grown ass instigator who actually laid hands on another adult a free pass is so…ugh.

Let's just drop it. This ain't really the place for this convo, and I'm still new here. We can agree to disagree.

(Also, I guess I missed the part where they'd had some incident prior to walking in)

Once you hit back you can no longer claim assault in the eyes of the law and its for pretty good reason that it is that way. Mixon is a chump and a dbag.
