He really needs to work on his footspeed and that is asking for a lot. The man wears a size 22 shoe and wears a brace on each knee plus he weighs over 300lbs, so I don't know how much more speed he can get. But if he could become more agile I think there's a lot of money waiting on him at the next level.

True, I've watched him steadily improve throughout the year, but there is always that occasional play where he gets beat like a rented mule.

"I've learned a lot from my coaches in my three years here and I feel like I can only get better with more experience. The most important reason is to finish my degree. Right now, I am on track to graduate next December and that's one of the things I promised my mother that I would do when I decided to come to the University of Alabama. This is a special place and I'm looking forward to spending another year with my friends and teammates, graduating, and playing in front of the best fans in the country."

Smart young man. He has the ability to work himself into a first round draft pick.

Size 22, eh?  Habitat for Humanity may need his services.

I think his shoe repair is handled by HUD.

It seems there was an ESPN broadcast from Foley High School when JJ and DJF were there (maybe vs. Daphne or Fairhope?). The cameras were all focused on JJ so Kenny Stabler didn't dare make a recruiting move on Julio. KS may have pulled a fast one by working on #76 with his right hand, while the cameras watched his left and #8. My eldest son graduated high school on that field, so sometimes I kid KS.

Cool, WV.

What are the chances that Hightower returns to anchor our D (again)?
