'13 FL RB Derrick Henry (Bama commit)

I hope so. I'm friends with one of the lady escorts that walk around with the recruits and she said he seemed to love everything about Knoxville and our program. I hope we stick him. Would be a huge commitment!!! GBO

I guess we're gonna find out how good of an "escort" your friend really is.

I still feel good about him (like we have a 35% chance which is nice for a 5* talent). I hope he picks us but I want to stay realistic too.
 
Isn't Saban traveling to see Henry play on Friday? Interestingly, Saban is still actively recruiting Gators commit Kelvin Taylor who will also be at the game.

I haven't followed Taylor since we haven't been in for him. How does he stack up with Henry? Who is generally thought to be the better back? All I know is that they're both big time stat producers.
 
I have yet to see or hear anything to dissuade me from thinking that we still have a shot with Henry. Logically, we are the best choice for him for immediate playing time. My optimum finish at RB is Henry and Kamara, but I could learn to like Green and Kamara just as well.

We shall see.

Looks like he is announcing at 10 on Friday.

Since most of his family is coming in for the weekend and announcement he wanted them all to be there for it. Some will not get in until Thursday night. So he moved it until Friday morning to have everyone there.
 
Saban is probably still recruiting Taylor because there is always that possibility of a RB decommitting. Apparently he is not sold on a few of the backs on campus carrying the load in the future. If Henry is as good as some feel he is, he could be the #2 back there sooner than later.

I personally think Jones is the better RB though.

The people on this board amaze me sometimes. Everything has pointed to Bama for months, yet some still blindly believe he will be a vol.
