[flcanesfan]

Skinner is here

 

[Canes10]

I wondered if we would go after Skinner. He seemed like it was just our on field product that turned him away.

Think I'll play Poweball tomorrow

 

[ssvir]

In before the mopes say Bama dropped him.

 

[Suhrthing]

Genuine interest though?

 

[Canefam]

Njoku written all over him...

[Zbrod95]

Genuine interest though?

Tide has 2 other TEs committed.

 

[Jedi Master Cane]

Doesn’t Bama have a policy that if a commit takes visits they drop him ? If so , the fact he even showed up means he’s looking for an excuse to come here

“ Mario Cristobal is already big-time moves on the recruiting trail.

His first official visit weekend began on Friday and InsideTheU learned that Bradenton IMG Academy Top247 tight end Jaleel Skinner, an Alabama commit, is a part of the group spending the weekend in South Florida. The nation's No. 4 tight end took previously took an official visit to Miami over the summer, but a return trip is allowed based on an NCAA rule that allows schools to bring guys back following a head coaching change.

The 6-foot-5, 210-pounder, who previously committed to the Crimson Tide over Miami, Texas, Florida, and Clemson, arrived in Miami late Friday night with his family.

Skinner coming down to UM is a major development in this recruitment. The lanky pass-catcher has made it known on his social media accounts in the past that Miami finished second behind the Tide, and with Nick Saban holding commitments from two other players at the position in Lakewood (Fla.) Top247 athlete Amari Niblack, who is expected to play tight end, and Dayton (Ohio) Wayne four-star Elijah Brown.

It's currently unclear what this visit means in terms of his commitment to Alabama, but Saban typically does not like his players taking other visits while verbally committed.

Skinner is expected to sign on Wednesday during the first day of the Early Signing Period and enroll in January.”

Wow would be a huge flip, crazy how Mario’s been here for not even a week and we are suddenly linked to all these top players who never even gave us the time of day.

 

[Cribby]

Gaby kinda hinted that the secret visitor is committed elsewhere

A familiar name

Don't think that policy is set in stone, but they very much hate when commits visit other places. They're not dropping Skinner... flipping him would be all the more sweeter.

I bet they are pretty selective in who they hold to this policy. Saban isn't going to drop an elite talent for taking visits.

 

[Camerooski]

Ours to lose, Mario is a such a blessing

Do it, I dare you Saban.

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

Don’t expect any change here but I respect the effort and the cache it takes to get a kid like this back on campus

 

[smack99]

Get all them IMG boys. Need to start a pipeline

 

[TallyCane]

Yea we flipping skinner. Bama probably making room for Campbell who just recommitted from Clemson.

 

[Jedi Master Cane]

It’s pretty well documented that Saban doesn’t have patience for it. Maybe he doesn’t drop him but it’s irrelevant. The fact the kid took the risk, knowing how Saban feels about it , tells me we’ve got a good chance here.

 

[htownkidd]

Yeah, don’t get too anxious about this one fellas lol.
