I will go short here and say that most Bama recruits wouldn't qualify academically for the Irish. And the three that would is there to lift the overall team GPA. We start running out of CBS scholar athletes of the week about three weeks into the season.

I'm thinking you prove a little theory of mine. Turns out massive parts of this country have Irish blood in their veins. A lot of southerners that thought they were English, Scottish, or "Scotts-Irish", or didn't even know or care, are descendants from the indentured servant population, (O'Brien becomes Osborne, etc.), or from the penal colonies in Georgia. Don't worry, the English were so intent in clearing Ireland of the Irish, that a lot of Irish were locked up and transported to Georgia, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and Tasmania, without ever having committed a real crime, other than living on the wrong piece of land.

Anyway. There are people all over that have Irish hearts. They may have a first love, another, but they have a intrinsic understanding of all things Irish. And we all are united with that particular view of life, even if our "perspectives" are a little different. Proof of this is the Irish Brigade, everyone knows of the four Union regiments three of which were all Irish. But how many remember the original Louisiana Tigers? That was an all Irish unit made up of mostly New Orleans longshoremen, most of whom were born in Ireland or had parents that were. Each state in the Confederacy had an elite Irish unit. That is the true reason that the Subway Alumni is so pervasive. There are those with an Irish heart everywhere! Here is to you T-Town Tommy; Nár lagaí Dia do lámh! Sláinte!

I also have a feeling, if offered, Isaiah McKenzie could commit soon (my definition, not EV's) thereafter.

Rivals just updated their version of our "hypothetical class," which originally came out in May. They now have us taking 23 instead of 20 due to transfers. In addition to the 11 guys already committed, here are there predictions:

OLB - A. Williams
CB - N. Watkins
WR - C. Holmes
TE/OLB - T. Luatua
WR - A. Lazard
WR - E. Brown
DT - T. Holley
DE - S. Thomas
ATH - M. Quick
S - J. Smith
LB - R. Yeargin
OL - D. Mama

6 guys from the original list of 20 are no longer listed: Allen (TAMU), Andrews (the believe he's now trending towards TAMU), Booker (OSU), Frazier, Malone (apparently we're not recruiting him as hard as we were), and Baker (Washington).

Can recruits be in multiple schools' hypothetical classes or, taken together, do the hypothetical classes constitute their predictions for how everything shakes out in the end? Cuz I would sign up for that right now.

Haha yeah, I think all of us would be jumping for joy if everything actually played out like this. That being said, the writer(s) of the article do acknowledge that some of these guys are more "wish list" type guys that we are not considered the favorite to land. I personally think we're much more likely to end up with Smith than Mama, that Lazard sticks with Iowa State, Solomon Thomas stays in Texas, and Andrews ends up at ND.

Interesting that they have us landing Mama over Smith... I must have missed something.

I would love to see them land more than one LB but yeah... I don't think there is much room to complain if that is the class that signs.

Rivals is high on something good. No way we land Mama. And a lot of those guys are huge reaches.
