Top 5 Alabama Recruits To Care About
Player writeups by Scout.com

1. LB Reggie Ragland
6-2, 245, Scout.com 1st ranked, five-star middle linebacker. Ragland is big athlete and reminds many people of former Alabama Butkus Award winner Rolando McClain. He has excellent size, speed and very physical. He is recruited to play middle linebacker. He does a great job filling the hole and reading plays. He needs to improve his lateral quickness and staying consistent. - Andrew Bone, Southeast Recruiting Analyst

2. S Landon Collins
6-0, 180, Scout.com 2nd ranked, five-star safety. A big, physical safety, Collins looks like a linebacker on the field, but he is good in coverage. While's he's capable of covering the deep third and breaking up passes, it's his closing on the ball carrier in run support and big hits that make him stand out the most on the field. A big hitter, he doesn't sacrifice position or the sure play trying to make the big play. An early impact player.

3. WR Cyrus Jones
5-10, 185, Scout.com 6th ranked, five-star receiver. Jones has superior ability in making cuts and reading blocks, excellent acceleration and elusiveness and flat-out speed when running the ball consistently on a jet sweep. At cornerback, he has closing speed and is willing to deliver a big hit. The biggest question is whether Jones has the size to play running back, if he best as a receiver, or even a cornerback.

4. S Eddie Williams
6-4, 205, Scout.com 3rd ranked, four-star safety.

5. RB T.J. Yeldon
6-1, 215, Scout.com 8th ranked, four-star running back. In 2011, 232 rushes for 2,193 yards and 31 touchdowns; 19 catches for 244 yards and a touchdown. The senior completed five of eight passes for 85 yards and a touchdown.

The 2012 Class Was Heavy On... The Tide loses a slew of good defensive starters, but there are more waiting in the wings. Signing Day defensive tackles Dalvin Tomlinson and Korren Kirven were the icing on an already terrific cake. The stockpiled depth after years of great recruiting classes is amazing, but it would be nice if a stud No. 1 receiver could come in and take over a big role early on. The Tide needs a boost for the receiving corps after the start of the last few classes for the defensive side, and the stars appear to be coming.

Team Concerns For 2012: Cyrus Jones and Amari Cooper are considered two of the nation’s best receiver prospects and could be factors right away. The rich are getting richer on defense with Reggie Ragland an NFL inside linebacker spending a few years in college, and safeties Landon Collins and Eddie Williams each special.

Looking Ahead To The 2012 Season: Remember, the Tide had to replace Greg McElroy, Mark Ingram, and Julio Jones in 2011, so the idea of losing starters – and offensive coordinator Jim McElwain - isn’t exactly going to cause a major panic for Nick Saban and his program. Star running back Trent Richardson turned pro, but Eddie Lacy is a big playmaker who’s ready for a bigger role. The linebacking corps will need to be remade with Dont’a Hightower taking off early, Courtney Upshaw done, and C.J. Mosley a question mark at the moment considering the horrible injury he suffered in the BCS championship. On the plus side, Outland-winning tackle Barrett Jones stunningly chose to come back to join Chance Warmack to anchor the left side to keep BCS championship hero AJ McCarron clean, while D.J. Fluker is back at right tackle. The young receivers who looked so strong against LSU should play a bigger role, and they might need to make the passing game stronger to overcome early problems for a defense that lost seven starters. Even so, the D will quickly reload around strong safety Robert Lester and linebacker Nico Johnson.

2011 CFN Recruiting Ranking: 5. That Class Was Heavy On ... Defensive linemen. With yet another phenomenal class, the rich get richer ... while also sticking it to Auburn with OT Cyrus Kouandijo verbaling to the Tigers and signing with the Tide. The receiving corps is awesome with 6-4 Marvin Shinn and 6-2 Danny Woodson bringing the size, and Bradley Sylve providing the speed. Ha’Seaon Clinton-Dix might be the nation’s best safety prospect, and Trey DePriest is Scout.com’s No. 1 ranked middle linebacker, but the key to the class could be up front on defense with JUCO transfers Quinton Dial, a 6-5, 310-pound future NFL draft pick, and 6-4, 340-pound Jesse Williams, ready to clog the inside. Xzavier Dickson fits the Bama scheme perfectly at one end, and Jeoffrey Pagan whould be a strong pass rusher with a little bit of time.

2010 CFN Recruiting Ranking: 5. That Class Was Heavy On ... Defensive backs. How good is Nick Saban and his staff when it comes to recruiting? The Tide didn't have a ton of needs with so many great classes brought in over the last few years, and the monster class that capitalizes on the national title is supposed to come in next year, but that doesn't mean that several top players available this season didn't want to come wear the Crimson uniform. Phillip Sims is by far the most talented quarterback prospect the Tide has had in several years, and the receiving corps will be loaded with DeAndrew White, Ronald Carswell, Blake Sims and Keiwone Malone would all be No. 1 targets at just about anywhere else. The defensive backfield is amazing with the best class in America led by top corner prospect Demarcus Milliner and big-time safety Jarrick Williams. Johnavon Fulton has NFL corner speed and JUCO transfer Dequan Menzie could see time immediately.

2009 CFN Recruiting Ranking: 2. That Class Was Heavy On ... linemen. Nick Saban and his staff brought in yet another loaded class that is among the best in the country with RB Trent Richardson leading the way, but the bulk is up front. From JUCO transfer James Carpenter, who might get a starting spot on the offensive line right away, to Darrington Sentimore, Chris Bonds, and Anthony Orr, who’ll load up the defensive front, the Tide secured the lines for the next several years.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Jeremy Shelley kicked five field goals and Trent Richardson broke a 34-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter as No. 2 Alabama beat No. 1 LSU 21-0 on Monday night - the first shutout in BCS title game history.

Richardson swept around left end and raced down the sideline to the end zone with 4:36 left for the first touchdown between the Southeastern Conference rivals in more than 115 minutes of play and one overtime period.

Alabama (12-1) had put it away before that as Shelley kicked field goals of 23, 34, 41, 35 and 44 yards in the first three quarters to make it 15-0, matching an all-bowl record. He also missed two field goals and an extra-point attempt.

But this time, the missed kicks didn't matter to the Tide.

The Tigers (13-1) and Tide met on Nov. 5 in what was dubbed the Game of the Century, and the Tigers won a touchdown-less, defensive standoff, 9-6 in overtime. Alabama went 2 for 6 on field goals in Tuscaloosa.

Richardson, the Heisman Trophy finalist, ran for 96 yards on 20 carries and offensive player of the game A.J. McCarron passed for 234 yards as the Tide had no problem moving against LSU's second-ranked defense in the nation - just not into the end zone.

Alabama's top-ranked defense didn't need much help. With All-American linebacker Dont'a Hightower leading the way, the Tide held LSU to 92 total yards and five first downs.

For the Tide, it's the second BCS championship in the last three years under coach Nick Saban, who also won a title at LSU in 2003.

In a bowl season filled with high-scoring games, the top two defenses in the nation set the tone at the BCS title game. And much like the first meeting, special teams were pivotal.

The Tide's defense was dominant and linebacker C.J. Mosley had the first takeway of the game in the third quarter, his last play of the game as it turned out.

LSU's Jordan Jefferson started to scramble toward the line, but at the last second flipped the ball toward Spencer Ware. Problem was, Ware had turned to block and Mosley snagged the ball and set up Alabama at the Tigers 27.

Mosley was twisted down to the turf by Jefferson and his left leg bent awkwardly. The sophomore stayed down for several minutes and as the medical staff worked on him Alabama fans chanted his first name. As he was carted off, sitting up on the back of a golf cart, he got a huge ovation and pumped his fist.

Alabama couldn't convert the field position into points as Shelley dropped to 4 for 6 on the day, missing wide right on a 41-yarder with 5:38 left in the third.

The next time down, he booted a 44-yarder, giving him more field goals than any kicker has ever had in a college bowl game. His seven attempts were also a record.

The Tide faked a 49-yard attempt early in the second quarter and went with a shovel pass to backup tight end Chris Underwood that gained 4 yards. He reached the first-down marker by the nose of the football.

The drive didn't last much longer and Shelley's 42-yard attempt was blocked by LSU defensive tackle Michael Brockers.

Shelley came back to make one from 34 yards with 4:24 left in the half, and from 41 yards as time expired in the first half.

Alabama opened the second half with another solid drive that stalled, but Shelley tacked on another 3-pointer from 35 yards.

LSU's offense was shut down completely. The Tigers managed two first downs and 66 yards through three quarters. The Tide, led by linebackers Courtney Upshaw and Mosley, gave Jefferson no space to run the option and only short gains when he passes.

It was Alabama's special teams that struck first in the first BCS title game to match teams from the same conference.

Punt returner Marquis Maze found a lane and broke into the open around midfield, though he pulled up instead of trying to get around punter Brad Wing and grabbed his left leg while running out of bounds at the LSU 26 after a 49-yard run-back.

Maze, the Tide's leading receiver, had to be helped over to the Alabama sideline, but he had put his team in scoring position. Maze didn't play again.

McCarron completed a 15-yard pass to Darius Hanks to set up first-and-goal, but LSU's defense, ranked second in the nation behind only Alabama, stiffened.

Shelley, who made one field goal and had another blocked in the first meeting between the SEC rivals, was perfect on a 23-yarder with 5:00 left in the first quarter.

It didn't sound like an LSU home game at the Superdome, about 80 miles from its Baton Rouge campus. The dome was deafening on almost every play with a crowd that was much closer to 50-50 than partisan.

The racket coming from the crimson-clad Alabama fans might have even contributed to a mishandled snap by Jefferson on the first LSU series.

More than a few people questioned whether Oklahoma State should have been given Alabama's spot in the BCS championship game, but the Tide won over the voters and earned a rematch with the Tigers.

Nov. 26 Alabama 42 … at Auburn 14
CFN Analysis: The rivalry is always going to be an X factor, but Alabama was supposed to beat up and blow away a mediocre Auburn team with no run defense. This was a stat-padder game, and Trent Richardson did his part with 203 yards on 27 carries, while catching a five-yard score. … AJ McCarron was terrific, completing 18-of-23 passes for 184 yards and three scores, and Richardson was unstoppable, but the defense was the real star. The front seven didn’t let the Tiger running game breathe. … Courtney Upshaw and Dont’a Hightower dominated. … It’s off to the national championship. There’s no question that this is one of the top two teams in America, and it’ll get its shot at a rematch with LSU.  

Nov. 19 at Alabama 45 … Georgia Southern 21
CFN Analysis: Obviously it was a letdown game, and yes, the Georgia Southern triple option attack is the most dangerous in the FCS, but still, if you want to convince the world that you deserve to play a rematch for the national title, you don’t give up 302 rushing yards to a lower-level team. … Trent Richardson had to work WAY too hard for his 175 yards and two scores on 32 carries. … AJ McCarron was taking target practice, completing14-of-19 passes for 190 yards and three scores. The line gave him time to work and he came through with a nice game. … The Tide can probably end up in the national championship with a win over Auburn no matter how it looks, but an impressive performance would be a big plus. 

Nov. 12 Alabama 24 … at Mississippi State 7
CFN Analysis: Alabama never let Mississippi State breathe with the defense allowing just 131 yards and 12 yards on the ground. The linebackers destroyed the Bulldog backfield and the D finished with four sacks and nine tackles for loss. Don’t’ Hightower came up with 11 tackles with a sack. … Trent Richardson was fed the ball early and often, running 32 times for 127 yards and a score, but Eddie Lacy made the big plays with 11 carries for 96 yards and two scores. … The Tide held on to the ball for over 36 minutes thanks to the pounding running game. AJ McCarron struggled on third downs, though, finishing the day 14-of-24 for 163 yards and a score. … This was as business-like as it gets. MSU never had a chance, and now it’s time to rest everyone up against Georgia Southern before facing Auburn. 

Nov. 5 LSU 9 … at Alabama 6 OT
CFN Analysis: The Tide screwed this up. LSU won it, but Alabama also lost it. The four missed field goals were bombs, including the block, with the attempts coming from 44, 50, 49, and 52; the offense should’ve put the kickers in a better position, especially in the overtime. Marquis Maze did his best, with 61 yards on six catches, but the lack of a gamebreaking receiver turned out to be costly in the second half as Trent Richardson didn’t have any room to move against the swarming Tiger linebackers. The Tide D did its job with Nico Johnson coming up with 11 tackles and with constant pressure in the backfield from all sides, and the offense outgained the Tide 295 yards to 239, but the special teams were the difference. Alabama outplayed LSU in several ways and seemed to have control, but it never got the field position it needed and it didn’t take advantage of opportunities. Going forward, coming up with blowouts is a must to show everyone it deserves the No. 2 spot and a rematch.

Oct. 22 at Alabama 37 … Tennessee 6
CFN Analysis: It’ll be easy to overreact to the struggles in the first half compared to the way LSU breezed through its win over Auburn this week and Tennessee a few weeks ago, but once it became time to take care of business, the Tide turned it on. Okay, so Trent Richardson wasn’t great, even with two scores, and AJ McCarron struggled a bit early on, but the Tide defense wasn’t going to let this become a game. There wasn’t any Tennessee passing game to worry about, and while the run defense gave up 92 yards, it was still an easy win after the offense turned it on. However, there has to be some concern that the offensive front struggled. If Bama wasn’t dominant against the Vol defensive front, good luck getting a push against LSU’s line. 
 
Oct. 15 Alabama 52 … at Ole Miss 7
CFN Analysis: Everything worked to perfection against an awful Ole Miss team, but don’t take it for granted. This is the type of game that some teams would lose focus and struggle, but Bama didn’t have any problems led by Trent Richardson’s wild four-touchdown day, highlighted by a 76-yard third quarter touchdown dash capped off by a hesitation move that’ll be played over and over again on any Heisman-talk highlights. AJ McCarron was terrific, completing 19-of-24 passes for 224 yards and a score. It was all helped by an O line that did a great job of paving the way for the running game while keeping McCarron clean on the way to 615 yards of total offense. Next up is a punchless Tennessee team before getting two weeks off to prepare for LSU. The goal will be to keep everyone healthy and move on. 

Oct. 8 at Alabama 34 … Vanderbilt 0
CFN Analysis: Vanderbilt never had a chance. The Tide defense was dominant from the start, allowing just 41 yards on the ground, while the offense did a nice job of not screwing anything up. It might have taken a half to get everything rolling, but there wasn’t any chance of an upset. Vandy is great at forcing takeaways, and the only way Bama would be in any sort of trouble was with a slew of turnovers. AJ McCarron was nearly perfect, completing 23-of-30 passes for 237 yards and four scores, and Trent Richardson ran well getting just 107 yards on 19 carries. The D didn’t come up with any sacks, but it camped out in the backfield and generated solid pressure all game long. Everything is working at a high level, and after the obligatory win over Ole Miss, then the fun finally begins with Tennessee and the showdown against LSU. A little more of a pass rush would be still be nice, but that’s nitpicking.  

Oct. 1 Alabama 38 … at Florida 10
CFN Analysis: Now the Tide really looks the part of a potential national champion. The Arkansas game was strong, but beating up, battering, and bullying Florida – a good Florida team – showed just how far the team has come after a mediocre first two weeks. The defense is playing at the highest of levels ranking No. 1 in the nation in run defense and scoring defense despite playing Penn State, Arkansas, and Florida. The offense was all about the line, paving the way for a huge 181-yard day from Trent Richardson and keeping AJ McCarron upright, but the passing game didn’t quite click with McCarron completing just 12-of-25 passes for 140 yards. With an interception for a score, four tackles, three tackles for loss and a brutal sack on John Brantley, this was Courtney Upshaw’s national coming out game, but with three sacks, this was the coming out day for Bama’s pass rush. Vanderbilt and Ole Miss might not score against the Tide over the next two weeks. 

Sept. 24 at Alabama 38 … Arkansas 14
CFN Analysis: Alabama pitched the nearly perfect game. It was a fight for a quarter, and then everything started to work with the defense stuffing the Arkansas running game, DeQuan Menzie and the return game coming up with a score, and the offense starting to click just enough to force the Hogs to press. AJ McCarren did his part, helped by a nice performance from the offensive line keeping him clean, completing 15-of-20 passes for 200 yards and two scores. Trent Richardson got going with 126 yards on 17 carries, gouging the Hog defensive front time and again. On the other side, Bama held the Hogs to 17 rushing yards, while Dre Kirkpatrick had a whale of a game with six tackles, a tackle for loss, and three broken up passes. This was just the next step, though, with a trip to Florida up next.  

Sept. 17 at Alabama 41 .. North Texas 0
CFN Analysis: Alright, so the offensive line decided it was time to blast someone in the running game as the Tide cranked out 347 yards and five touchdowns. Eddie Lacy continues to be one of the nation’s top home run hitters, while Trent Richardson averaged 15.2 yards per carry with 167 yards and three scores on 11 carries. The passing game was fine with A.J. McCarron and Phillip Sims combining to complete 21-of-29 passes for 239 yards. Play time is over. Now it’s time to show just how good the team is with Arkansas and Florida up next.

Sept. 10 Alabama 27 ... at Penn State 11
CFN Analysis: Alabama remained calm and cool in the emotion of the start against Penn State, and once it settled down, and once the defense started to dial it up a bit, the game was over. The offense was hardly impressive, but it did enough to get the job done with Trent Richardson pounding away for a workmanlike 111 yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries, while AJ McCarron had an effective 19-of-31,163-yard, one score game. The D gave up a long early drive, and a long garbage time drive, and nothing in between, and while the pass rush was just okay, there wasn’t anywhere for the Nittany Lion skill players to go. After last week’s problems holding on to the ball, going without a turnover against a defense as good as Penn State’s is impressive.  

Sept. 3 at Alabama 48 … Kent State 7
CFN Analysis: This is why there are easy opening games. Alabama needs to figure out its quarterback situation and needs to try to get out of the dual-QB format, but A.J. McCarron and Phillip Sims each threw two interceptions and neither one stood out to claim the job. The ground game was fine, averaging 5.2 yards per carry, and Trent Richardson ran for three scores despite averaging just 2.8 yards per run, but this was still a shaky overall offensive performance with the Penn State defense coming up next. For all the problems, 49 points against a good Kent State defense is still a positive, and the defense was tremendous allowing just 99 yards and -9 on the ground. Trey DePriest and Courtney Upshaw were sensational; they were all over the field.

The 2011 Class Is Heavy On … Defensive linemen. With yet another phenomenal class, the rich get richer ... while also sticking it to Auburn with OT Cyrus Kouandijo verbaling to the Tigers and signing with the Tide. The receiving corps is awesome with 6-4 Marvin Shinn and 6-2 Danny Woodson bringing the size, and Bradley Sylve providing the speed. Ha’Seaon Clinton-Dix might be the nation’s best safety prospect, and Trey DePriest is Scout.com’s No. 1 ranked middle linebacker, but the key to the class could be up front on defense with JUCO transfers Quinton Dial, a 6-5, 310-pound future NFL draft pick, and 6-4, 340-pound Jesse Williams, ready to clog the inside. Xzavier Dickson fits the Bama scheme perfectly at one end, and Jeoffrey Pagan whould be a strong pass rusher with a little bit of time.

Five Alabama Recruits You Should Care About
Player writeups by Scout.com

1. LB Trey DePriest
6-2, 230, Scout.com’s 1st ranked middle linebacker. Has the frame of a middle linebacker, but he shows the flexibility and change of direction to be able to play on the outside in space. Quicker than fast, ideal for a linebacker, DePriest at times plays too high, but he’s strong enough that he’s gotten away with it in high school. He's a tenacious pass rusher who has a knack for timing the snap and beating a blocker out of his stance. Shows good balance as a RB.

2. OT Cyrus Kouandjio
6-7, 295, Scout.com’s 1st ranked offensive tackle. Kouandjio has an incredible wing-span and frame. Not many kids can walk around at 280-plus pounds and look skinny, once he fills out his frame the sky is the limit. Kouandjio plays the game with a mean streak and he finishes blocks. He is a dominant run blocker and is outstanding in pass protection. Shows outstanding feet while playing in space he can stop big run stuffers or speed.  … the younger brother of 2010 Alabama freshman Arie … the consensus top offensive line prospect in the nation by Rivals.com, ESPNU, Scout.com, SuperPrep and Tom Lemming … the No. 2 overall player nationally by Scout.com and SuperPrep Magazine …  an overpowering run blocker with excellent athleticism … tremendous overall speed and quickness for a player his size … started at left tackle in the Under Armour All-American Game … SuperPrep All-American and the No. 1 player in the MidAtlantic Region … SuperPrep MidAtlantic Offensive Player of the Year … a consensus first-team All-State selection in Maryland … held over 60 scholarship offers … chose the Crimson Tide over virtually every major college football program.

3. S Ha’Sean Clinton-Dix
6-2, 190, Scout.com’s 1st ranked safety. Clinton-Dix can do it all at safety and he could probably be a big cornerback on the next level as well. He really explodes out of his breaks and closes on the ball extremely well. He is physical, he has instincts, and he has great size as well. As good as he is in coverage, he is just as good in run support. He can still improve his drops and his overall footwork, but he is elite, and he should be very successful on the next level.

4. RB Dee Hart
5-9, 189, Scout.com’s 8th ranked running back. An elusive running back with outstanding field vision, Hart is a make you miss type of back that isn't afraid to put his head into a pile. Not just a good receiver for a RB, Hart is a good receiver period. Despite his size, he is a tough, durable runner that could be a 25 carry a game running back, but is also a good enough receiver to play full time in the slot. He elevates extremely well, making himself a bigger target.

5. LB Shannon Brown
6-2, 237, Scout.com’s 10th ranked running back. Brown is a hard hitting athlete that could end up at middle linebacker or on the defensive line in college. His position depends on his size because he has the feet and athleticism to play inside backer on the next level. If he body continues to grow, then he could end up putting his hand down. He is as athletic as they come at this size, but he needs to improve his raw strength and endurance more than anything.
