When was the last time we landed a LB this highly rated? Or better question when was the last LB this highly rated not a bust (Bates, Chris Donald, etc)? Rico McCoy?

Now that I really think about it...man our LB recruiting has been BAD for a long time.

5.8 4stars, Bituli wasn't in top 250. Petterson is Top 3 OLB in country, #43 overall on 247 and #68 on Rivals. Bates and Donald are only LB's in over a decade to be that highly rated and they both were busts.

Last stud I remember at LB was Kevin Burnett. Man he was a beast and All American at that. Rico was good so was Jarrod Mayo but not like Burnett

AJ Johnson is the last one I can think of that was highly rated and performed well. Curt Maggit was pretty highly rated and was performing at a high level before that crazy hip injury.

A good friend of mine runs a fishing charter business out of Jupiter, Florida, and has taken Maggitt out a few times. Says he's a really great guy. Also mentioned Maggitt is working out and would like to give the NFL one more shot.

It is his dream. The baby mamas drama ended that for him before. Saban was set to hire him.

Saban can get away with it we can't the media would jump all over us but if Saint Nick does it oh how Nick is helping a good human being that made a mistake, you got 2 set of Rules one for most of football and a set for nick and a very few others, like Urban at that ohio state.:rtfm:

Rico was a Top 50 player out of D.C., and he was a Bauce.

You read my mind. SEC coaches had great respect for how AJ played. I hope he finds peace soon. JRM could ball as well.

Umm..I was referring to the article I read about Propst. He interviewed with Saban and staff when he was HC at Hoover. The interview went really well, and then later that day Saban called him and asked him if the rumor was true that he had a second family..Saban did not hire him because of it.
