I believe it is well know by the coaches circle in the NFL that we did not have a S&C program up for 4 years straight for our guys. They are not going to waste limited numbers on guys that are not strong enough and don't have enough conditioning yet. ImoWhere are Callaway and JJ gonna go? Callaway ain’t ready to go although I think with a solid senior season he could be a mid to late round pick. And no matter what JJ does he ain’t getting drafted imo....UDFA at best who makes a roster due to special teams.
They’d both be extremely well served to come back for 2019.
Haven’t heard anything about Richmond leaving. Will be interesting to see what happens with him if leaving is indeed a possibility. I doubt it.
-RivalsIf you are in the area, and have an hour or two to spare in the next couple days, go to Team Alabama's practice and watch five-star wide receiver
George Pickens practice. He makes it look so easy out there. He has such a big catch radius, and it showed throughout the day Thursday. Pickens is committed to Auburn, but LSU is a real threat in this race, too. On Thursday, Pickens had LSU gloves on, along with a gold long-sleeve undershirt and purple socks. Those things likely mean absolutely nothing, but even the top of his hair had a golden tint to it today. Pickens does not plan to sign next week. He has already taken official visits to Auburn and LSU, but there are more in store for January. Florida, Georgia and Tennessee were the schools Pickens mentioned Thursday.
Anything new on this kid's recruitment?They are just going down their board trying to pick up the next available offenseive weapon. Just happens to be a WR in this case. If Cain wanted in we would’ve taken two RBs. But we lose a lot of WRs after ‘19 so at least two was always going to be the goal. Definitely need another guy opposite Keyton in the future.
UT wants Harris, but he's still not a lock to qualify academically. That's why he didn't sign early. Pickens is also an academic risk and has work to do to qualify. IDT the coaches would have taken Means if they thought Pickens was high probability.
