Brandon Moore Handling Position Change

Ranked no.36 at DT by Rivals.com, Brandon Moore moved to the other side of the ball this season to play OT. The move is working as Moore is anchoring a solid line. Carver is 2-0 and rushing for over 200 yards a game.

Bama and Auburn are at the top of Moore's list. He said before the season that he will not make a decision until after the season. These are always the guys that get tired of the hype and commit half-way through the season.

Moore is 6-5, 310 lbs and ranked no.4 on the Birmingham News Super Seniors list.

Wilson Love Getting Offers

Mt. Brook DT and younger brother of Bama's Tyler Love, Wilson Love, is already getting overwhelmed with offers from around the country. It's no surprise that Wilson told the Birmingham News he's leaning toward Alabama. "I can't see myself anywhere else. Alabama is part of my family," Love said.

He hasn't been offered by Bama yet and admits a little interest in playing on the west coast.


At 6-4, 255lbs, Love runs the 40 in 4.75 seconds.

Tana Patrick Recruiting Update


Tana Patrick

LB
North Jackson (Stevenson)
6-3, 215
uncommited





Patrick has decided not to take any official visits until after the season. Bama and AU have been after him pretty heavy and are keeping close contact over the phone. Tenn, FSU and UNC have also offered.
He talked about speaking with Saban over the phone and admited he watched the Clemson game and liked what he saw on defense.
Patrick might have briefly scared off a few recruiters this fall when suffered a minor knee injury. The injury appears to have had little affect as he recorded a sack, a handful of tackles and even caught a touchdown in just a little over one quarter of play.
North Jackson is 2-0 so far this year.
Patrick is rated as a 4-star linebacker by rivals.com and is fourth on their list of Alabama recruits this year.
