Brent is pretty good. He isn't the only one calling him to Florida either.

Hubbs said tonight that he is hearing that Humphries is going to UF. This should not be a surprise since he has said several times that UF was his leader.

His test score was flagged by the clearinghouse. He has decided to take his SAT again this weekend to try and clear the matter up. Dooley said that they should know something about Loften and Dixon in the next week.

Here is what he said about Brown: "Second session summer school doesn't end till August 10th and I know he is in some classes that he must make a "c" or better in before he can be eligible. Our position is that the optimism towards Brown being eligible this fall is not as high as it was at...

Hubbs says that Clark and Pair have a much better chance at making it than either Loften or Dixon. Clark had to take a class this summer to be eligible, and Pair had some sort of paperwork issue at his high school.

Yeah, I don't think I would exhaust a lot of energy recruiting this kid, but that's just me.

Hubbs has an article up about this kid on Volquest. I didn't realize that he had three cousins already on the Tide roster. Kendall Kelly, Jerrell Harris, and Dre Kirkpatrick are related to him. I would say the odds of him going anywhere but Alabama are slim and none.

I think UT could win out because of his relationship with coach Dooley. Richardson's family seems to really like and respect him. I think they would feel comfortable in sending their son to UT. They also have a really good relationship with OC Jim Chaney. He was one of the holdovers from...

I think he meant that he was surprised at UT's lack of interest in Thurman, not that Thurman committed to the gators.

UT or Bama.

I'm beginning to come to this point of view as well. I expected a slow start due to the coaching transition, but I thought they would be making a move by now in recruiting. We are in good shape for a lot of three star types, but not many of the four and five star guys. They have had lots of...

Reading that link was kind of discouraging. If true, it sounds like UT is nothing more than a fallback for him.

Not a shocker at all. His tape is awful.

I agree as well. He is the kind of recruit that you could slow play, and get a commitment from later in the process. There is really no reason to take a commitment from him now, with 7 months left before signing day. It would make more sense for them to try and get in a better position with...

Could you elaborate a bit on his mother's preference for Florida? Does she like the coaches there better, or is it just a location thing?
