National top 10 WR out of Miami.  Good pick up.  It was reported that Cris Carter was very high on him after working with him in camp this summer.

Yeah much better link.  I was gonna add it but you beat me. :D  
Here is an earlier story which talks about how Saban "discovered" Cooper at camp and made an offer.  After Saban offered, everyone else had to have him.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT
With both Hanks and Maze gone after this year (right?  We DID establish that I think.(http://www.myemoticons.com/images/emotions/thinking/ponder.gif)), he has a chance to jump right in next year and play as a freshman.

I love wide receivers.  Keep signing them, Coach.

He seemed like a good kid during his interview.  Don't think he is looking for benefits.

I didn't mean to imply he was looking for benefits. I was just calling U of Miami that.

What I liked most about his commitment was that he didn't need ESPN and all the news stations making it such a special moment that he commited. That says a lot to me.
