Signing day is here...and pretty much over with at this point. Alabama did awesome with the recruiting, and I'm very proud of the effort that the coaching staff did to wrangle some of these prospects to the Capstone.

For a complete list of the recruits that Alabama signed today, check out Clay's Bama Page.

I for one breathed a very large sigh of relief at the news that Andre Smith chose the Capstone. I was really sweating that one because for whatever reason I felt he could easily choose another well deserving college.

Boy did we luck out with Earl Alexander and Greg McElroy!!! I can see many good things in both of these young players and can't wait to see what the coaches decide to do with them. I heard on the news this evening that Alexander may be in the running for the starting postion at QB next season, however I wouldn't want anyone to get thier hopes up either. If I have said it once, I have said it a million times. High School football and College football are two different things and there are a lot of aspects to take into consideration. I personally felt like in the few games that Wilson played in he moved the ball very well and got the job done when he needed too. I don't count him out, I think he could be strong at QB and with a great duo of Alexander and McElroy behind him we could be looking at a triple threat, and how cool would that be?

I am so wishing I was a coach right now because I would be out there working with these 3 strong QB's and playing them as well. Every person has thier strengths and weaknesses, but if you work around them, boy you can certainly do a lot.

I'm getting excited about the coming season, even though it's still months away and can't wait for opening day. Here's hoping my little brother will be nice enough to throw some tickets my way!!! :)

ROLL TIDE!
