True Freshmen Getting Attention

Not a whole lot of news has come out of practice so far, but here are some tidbits:

*Crowe has mentioned Jeremy Nicholson, a blazing wide receiver from Brewton, as a freshman that might get some looks this Fall. Nicholson was a 3 Star Recruit heavily pursued by Southern Miss.

*It appears that Coty Blanchard, 2009 Mr. Alabama football, is really playing well and picking up the offense quickly. Also, you hear nothing but good things about Steven Coates, another true freshman from Southwest Dekalb.

*On the Defensive Line, Coach Crowe has specifically mentioned Michael "Moosolinni" Lewis and Armani Williams as guys that could contribute. Both are from Florida. Lewis was recruited by the Zooker at Illinois.

*A suprise on the offensive line has been how good Terrence Pendleton, a walk-on from Tanner high school has looked.

Other Notes:

*Redshirt freshman Brent Tolson, from Anniston, has moved from running back to inside linebacker and doing well.

*There is a kicking battle going on between James Esco, an FSU transfer, and Griffin Thomas, from Georgia. Thomas boomed a 53 yarder to win the Spring Game.
