'12 VA DT Korren Kirven (Bama signee)

[Mullins2010]

auburn is in on an awful lot of highly rated folks here at the end.

it can be a boom or bust day for several schools, particularly florida, georgia, and auburn.

they may hit the jackpot or go bust. but, if the typical situations play out (win some, lose some) aurburn will get a few notables tomorrow

mostly bust

 

[davethevol]

Auburn? Seriously?

Auburn pays players and gets away with it. They probably end up finishing better than expected.

 

[SamQB7]

That's 6 my time...I'll look forward to your notification at 8 when I get up.

This.

 

[GumpHater]

Kirven will commit to Bama.

 

[SamQB7]

Fml.

 

[SeanJean]

lol. Ahhhh to be a Vol fan. Just gets better and better.

 

[Phat-Phil]

Kirven will commit to Bama.

Ahh for real?

 

[AllVolForLife_16]

Kirven will commit to Bama.

Pure speculation. Not that I dont believe it wont happen, but saying he will sign there tomorrow is pure speculation at the moment. No one knows, all thats going on right now is rumors.

Misery loves company...hopefully UF and Bama have equally crappy days tomorrow.

 

[RM20]

yeah multiple reports now says that he wants to go to Bama, only hold up is the issue with distance by his mom. so if not Bama it will be VTech

 

[LawsonVFL]

Bama/VT here. Go on about your business.

don't count on it.

the worst thing that will happen for them tomorrow is that they only get 1/3 to 1/2 of the 5 star uncommitted talent that they are after

 

[LawsonVFL]

Bama will most likely get him and Tomlinson. Then they'll greyshirt someone who would have been an impact player at UT. GBO!

 

[Escape Goat]

Now all we need is McNeil to go to Okla. State and Davis to UNC. Tough time to be a Vol fan.

Indeed. It's always tough though.

I share your hatred of those two programs; they are mine own worse enemies. However, it would have to be the debacle to end all debacles, my friend. Each program has a veritable plethora of who's who in high school football already verbally committed. Chances of them decommiting tomorrow: super unlikely.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Wow! This is unreal! We just can't win...period! We were leading on Friday, and coming in 3rd on NSD. Bama must be paying A LOT of money to guys to talk them into greyshirting, when they could be going to other top notch schools on scholly and playing big-time minutes.

Kirven will commit to Bama.

Alabama has taken the lead for ESPNU 150 defensive tackle Korren Kirven of Lynchburg, Va. The 6-foot-3, 270-pound Kirven is rated as the No. 8 tackle prospect in the country by ESPN, and it was thought a few days ago that his finalists were Tennessee and Virginia Tech.

 

[SeanJean]

Must be nice to be Bama. They snap their fingers and players come running.

 

[jave36]

How did Bama notify him during the dead period? Legit question, I thought programs couldn't contact recruits today.

They do this little thing called "winning." Maybe if we ever do that again, we can have that sort of pull. Honestly, considering how bad we've been, the decent class we're about to sign is pretty amazing.

I've been saying the same thing for weeks.

 

[TideWarrior]

I have not seen many say for sure Kirven to UA from our sites. Seen the rumors out there but I also heard his mother is pushing for him to stay home. Another rumor is UA offered a grayshirt so who knows.

 

[Jax_Vol]

Just relax..that is 100% BS....12 more hours and all will be fine.

I would argue that they do this thing called having a coach by the name of Nick Saban. The winning came after he started recruiting sick classes. Now the winning continues.

What's up with Bama feeling they are so entitled that they can offer any and everyone a greyshirt? I have heard you say this a few times now...I know you mentioned it with Kwon Alexander. I'm sorry, but if I was the 8th or 10th or whatever ranked DT in the country as Kirven is, then I would tell them to take a hike, and take my scholly to UT or VT.
