    If we get DeAndre Brown, I could care less about Julio Jones. Yes, you are reading that correctly, I think DeAndre has the potential to be better than Julio Jones. Just watch and see.

    looks like Julio Jones has named his official visits.

    Alabama, Florida State, Florida, Oklahoma and Texas Tech.

    FWIW, on a local sportstalk radio program in Mobile, AL yesterday, one of the hosts said the mayor of Foley, AL told him on Monday that Julio is down to LSU, Alabama and FSU.

    I think Benton will be better than both of them in the long haul....I just hope if we do get Brown he can qualify.

    Take it FWIW but I'm hearing that while bama is still in the lead Oklahoma is gaining ground with Jones.

    Saw on ESPNU that A&M is now in the picture because of Leach and what he is doing with Crabtree.

    My guess is he will make it out to be a circus and go to Bama on NSD. Then it will come out that he was a silent commit to Bama all along.

    IF he's a silent, he's so silent it hasn't escaped to many at all. One player doesn't make or break a class (although if he were to attend another school I'm sure you could find examples of people thinking so.)

    I don't have a problem (as if I had a choice) sitting back and waiting 'til NSD knowing he's visited Bama 10X more than any other school over the past year, not to mention his friendship with Lester.

    He isnt a silent commit and no one really has a good feeling where he will go. The comfort factor for Bama fans is the obvious number of visits he has made, but knowing Bradford and co. are just freshmen has to be nice looking to any senior WR.
