CAJ is doing some recruiting. King can not play next year but he should be bigger, stronger and SEC ready for the 2016 season. He will be able to practice and scrimmage this year.

Quote
"We got down there and Coach Avery (Johnson) explained to Nick what he was trying to do with the program and what he wanted to do with Nick," Greg King said. "Nick said he loved the campus and loved everything about the visit."

The 6-foot-7, 220-pound King is a former top 50 national recruit in the class of 2013. He scored 7.2 points per game as a sophomore at Memphis this year. He has the versatility to play either forward spot.

It was Greg King's second visit to Tuscaloosa, as he took his younger son once for a Nick Saban football camp.

King picked Alabama over Ole Miss and Arkansas. He visited Ole Miss last weekend, and was scheduled to visit Arkansas next weekend.

I hope CAJ uses one of the remaining schollys to get a big man who is ready to come in and play now.  That may be difficult but it's a big need.
