Matter of fact its normal as normal as seeing the recruit dressed out in that schools colors. UAB has done well with the kids it gets on campus, and if I was a big man this is the perfect time to sign with the Blazers. ..you can come in and learn thr system without being the man and then 2018 you are good to go..
I expect UAB isn't what the other recruiters are talking about, I expect its CUSA.
REBOUNDER2U GO BLAZERS! !

CUSA is definitely the biggest knock against us when recruiting big time talent.

The obvious pushback there is to point at our OOC schedule.

So what is Stansberry doing? Paying his recruits?

Unbelievable lmao

Galin Smith is supposed to visit week. Is it still happening? I wouldn't be surprised if he gets pressure from UA to commit to them(with others?) and not make the trip.

The two newly offered guards are the only ones im looking at right now. Eshan has his work cut out for him.

Still on. I'd like to sit here and tell you Bama isn't promising the moon to all the guys but it's clearly the case. The best thing as could ask for is Reese commit to Bama before the visit.

Smith and Reese have played against each other. I just don't see them committing to the same place escpecially with he roster Bama already has in place.

Florida was the most likely landing spot for Herb before this weekend, but its been reported that Florida now has no more open spots for 2017. It seems almost like a done deal at this point that he's going to choose Bama.

I believe he has visited officially or unofficially all of his schools of interest.

Reese will announce his decision Thursday at 4:00.

You trust it's more than just his hands holding the knife that's going to be twisted in to us tomorrow. They are going to milk this for all it's worth.

Clinton, Miss. Big man Galin Smith isn't visiting UAB this weekend. Sounds like it's going to be Alabama, LSU or maybe Memphis for him
