Alabama Crimson Tide Football Recruiting Update: Big Weekend in Tuscaloosa

A Lollapalooza of the top high school football players ascend on T-town

Recruiting has reached a fevered pitch with coaches criss-crossing the country and Twitter tittering with anticipation.

It is no exaggeration to say that the events in Tuscaloosa this weekend might be the biggest in the nation and the most important to the Crimson Tide. Several of the highest rated student-athletes and their families will be seeing the campus, touring the facilities, and meeting with coaches, administrators, faculty, and students to decide whether they want to enroll at the Capstone.

The official date is January 22 but it is basically the whole weekend with some recruits rolling in as early as Thursday and leaving on Sunday.
