I wish we could find a way to hit our own version of a Mississippi Grand Slam with Young, Turnage, Mingo, Hall, and Cross. That would take this class way over the top.

I’ll be very surprised if we pull Mingo. I actually think he’s the least likely.
Mingo ain't coming. He's about to be really locked in to OM.
Getting Cross and Hall are possible.
question for the crootin' gurus. If we were to pull of some type of miracle in T-Town and win out, would that change things or are things pretty much settled for this year's croots?
Mr. Mingo if you are reading these message boards, I hope you are getting yourself menatally prepared to play on the defensive side of the ball in Oxford.
Because I am willing to bet that’s where you will be.
Everyone don’t sleep on the amount of pull JJ and Tyler Williams will have on Turnage.
Like I said 3 of the 5 will be fantastic
With Young he is for sure a take. But the 4 DL we have committed right now are very nice pick ups. One of them might be very special .
Mingo is a hopeless situation barring something really crazy. Cross is going to turn into a battle. Turnage is the question mark. We get one shot to convince Young but it's not happening IMO. Hall is waiting on AU and if that doesn't happen by Dec, I think he commits to us.
Saw this on sps...

This doesn't look like a guy getting ready to flip to us
I do find it amazing how Saban handles recruits like Young coming in with entitlement and finds a way to never have a let down.
There is clearly a very effective derecruitment process there.
Young could come in and play a lot for us but he'll go to Bama and redshirt. I wonder what the percentage of highly rated MS kids that sign with Bama is, that actually (a) play a lot and (b) make the NFL. It's pretty low.
I like the fact the guys leaving out catch some hell from other recruits.
Equal talent is the key. When you have a 5-star and a 2-star, the 5-star can coast and act like a prima-donna and still get playing time. When both players are 2-stars, if you coast or act like a prima-donna, then the other guy gets to play. In Saban's case, he has 4 and 5 stars. If a 5-star doesn't want to do it the Saban way, it's okay. Because there is another 5-star ready to take his place. So Saban doesn't have to cater to the stars. Because he has a roster full of them. At most schools, 5-stars aren't expendable, and the player knows it. At Alabama, they are expendable.

Twitters are going nuts right now with hype. Something is brewing on the recruiting front.
Also, about to be some flipping news within the next week or so. Hang on, it's bout to get crazy!
Also saw where QB Keyes is going to be playing 7v7 with Demario Davis's team.
