‘23 AL S Sylvester Smith

[ACvol3]

Good film. Hopefully our equipment team is better at sizing helmets than his HS.

Crazy how many times it popped off. Dude needs a smaller helmet or some better strap buttons

 

[Ttucke11]

I hate how much those highlights are sped up. But dude is clearly a player. Relishes contact.

Something that is a trait in all the DB's that we have committed is that they love to tackle and deliver the big hits. That is something that's missing from our current secondary.

Yeah. A lot of fans think that is something that can just be coached up easily.
You can teach technique but you can't teach willingess and just being dawg.

The Boo Carter kid is an absolute dawg in run support.

in 2023 our Alabama DBs are both very good 1 on 1 tacklers.

Very good point. Some guys are willing to tackle, while others love it. This year's class of DB's seen to love it.

Idk about this year but wish he was more engaged there last year when I watched him in a game

 

[VolByLaw]

Sylvester Smith was in town which was big I believe because there has been some worry about him. He has had a great senior year to this point.

This weekend sealed that up hopefully, cause we need DB’s like we need air to breath.

wait what worry?

 

[Frosty]

Hope he knows fans are just as excited about him as any other recruit we have coming in

That’s a weird thing to say. If there was worry nobody had spoken of it… AP should know to give more context than that.

 

[jakez4ut]

wait what worry?

He hasn't been back up for any visits till now. There was some speculation he may be a flip candidate...

 

[KB5252]

This dude tracks and attacks runners like a linebacker and reads QB eyes and ball hawks like a safety. He's the real deal, a very polished player for a high school kid.

As others have noted he needs a tighter helmet, my only worry with him is he may slip a helmet and have scrambled eggs before he gets to us. This kid will be a huge factor in years to come.

To who??

Looking at the directions of both programs… if you’re considering Auburn over Tennessee right now then you’re absolutely brain dead. That’s like jumping off a Royal Caribbean Cruise on to the sinking Titanic

I still don’t know how they were able to pull that juco db last offseason from us… we could’ve really used him this year

I wonder how that db is feeling now

Likely a combo of money and them being able to sell their BS. The vibe I’m getting from our staff is we aren’t begging people to come and blowing smoke up their butts.

Seems like our staff’s approach is we’re building something massive. Get in the boat or go drown elsewhere and some kids want to be pampered. Come here to compete, nothing is guaranteed.

M’ba has to be feeling like an idiot too. Can him and Scott transfer? Also I wonder if Cobb is having any doubts about his decision

 

[RiseToTheTop]

M’ba barely plays on a trash AU team lol

Said he really wanted to be developed and still said no to Coach G lol. A lot of these kids are not very intelligent.

Anybody can transfer

It's because they are kids. They get told everything under the sun to go to a certain school. It's a crazy process, and if they don't have an adult with their head screwed on straight in their corner It's tough.

I didn’t know if JUCO guys could or not
