FB Recruiting UK is a MAJOR option for Bear Bryant's great grandson

"They never learn." - Nick Saban.
Evidence says otherwise. Here are current and signed Kentucky football players who turned down scholarship offers from Saban to sign with Stoops. Josh Paschal, Jordan Wright, Yusef Corker, Kendall Randolph, Kengera Daniel, Tate Leavitt, Drake Jackson, Landon Young, Matt Elam. (Let's not turn this into another Elam thread.) Of course, Saban gets more than his share. He is the most successful coach in college football for a reason. But Stoops has had enough recruiting success to justify going after the players he wants, regardless of their offer sheets.
 
Haha. Good point.
Bama nation should feel entitled to have their legacy, so Saben gives him his last scholly,
and Kentucky gets to keep another 4 star...
I am convinced that is what Saban did to Stoops with Elam!!!
 
J.V. football in Alabama is well followed and supported. Trussville has long been a major recruiting area for high school talent. Didn't realize there was 7 A class in Alabama!
The only time I met and had brief visit with "The Bear" he told me of his and Mary Harmon fondness of their UK days and how they really liked living in Lexington.
Impressed with coaches Hinshaw and Gran efforts in recruiting! Imo UK, Lexington, and Bluegrass area is a easy sell!
