Week 11 - News and Notes

Injuries

CONTINUING: DE Talley, RB Stewart, DT Leatherman, DT Newsome. All but Newsome are playing through the pain.
NEW: None.

Recruiting

A very big commitment today:

CB Bart Roberson
6-2, 176
Mobile, AL (Lillie B Williamson)
Rating: 90-

Whoo-hoo! This was our number one prospect, and he signed! #3 overall prospect in Alabama, #1 CB. Perhaps UAB's biggest signing ever. He's tall and can really grab those picks. The scouting report says his weakness is run defense, but he had 4.5 sacks this year in high school. Also, we should keep an eye on his attitude; he's an attention-seeker. But if all goes well, he'll be one of the best defensive players in Division I-A.

Other commitments:
QB Deron Cox (AL, 31-)
T Marlon Coates (AL, 15+) - the tackle situation is weak in our area, too. I may have to relax our recruiting limits a little next year.
