LAREMY TUNSIL, OL, Lake City, Fla., 5 stars:
Alabama was after Tunsil hard, but he chose Ole Miss over the Crimson Tide and Georgia....

ROBERT NKEMDICHE, DL, Loganville, Ga., 5 stars:
Nkemdiche was ranked as the No. 1 recruit in the class of 2013 by all four major recruiting services (247Sports, Rivals, Scout, ESPN). Many thought he would go to Alabama...

TONY CONNER, DB, Batesville, Miss., 5 stars:
Conner also officially visited Alabama but picked Ole Miss over Alabama, Auburn and Mississippi State ...

Gone are the days of Coach Bryant, when we signed dozens more players than we needed.  NCAA scholarship limits mean we don't get all of the biggies, but also give the SEC more parity (what, 7 ranked teams in the SEC-west?).

Now we get to enjoy the competition.   :popcorn2:
