The first two were from Evans himself, one coming sometime Tuesday and the other on Wednesday morning. "I felt really good about where we were with him and his decision making," Saban said, "and that he would come to the University of Alabama."

It came moments after Evans announced his surprising decision on national TV and put a cherry on top of Alabama's top-ranked class of 2014. The sophomore linebacker was looking for some credit.
