RunInRed 16,383 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Rivals250 TE on campus. RT @GrizzlyAdams16: @JHokanson Hale Hentges in the student center Chick-fil-A with Malzahn and Lashlee@JHokanson Hale Hentges, TE Jefferson City, MO 6'4 / 230 / 4.8 Offers: Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Iowa State, Kansas State, Kentucky, Louisville, LSU, Miami (Fl.), Michigan, Michigan State, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Northwestern, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Penn State, Stanford, Tennessee, Texas, Vanderbilt and Wisconsin, among others. - Visited AU 4/17/14 247Sports: 4* (Top247 - No. 140) Rivals: 4* (Rivals250 - No. 150) Scout: 4* A fantastic two-way talent from the 'Show Me State'. He could be a valuable addition as a tight end or as a defensive end. On defense, he is quick off the ball and long. He uses his speed to get in the backfield and make plays and his height to leap in to the air to bat down balls. On offense, he uses his size as an advantage of defenders and shows good hand-eye coordination and body control. - GPhttp://recruiting.sc...c=1&nid=6169389 Hudl Highlights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tivo48 31 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Saw Malzahn and Lashlee walking him around the Student Rec center today as well and couldn't figure out who he was. He's got a great offer list, would love to have him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU64 10,122 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Saw on al.com that he is announcing his decision tonight. Paper mentioned that AU is one of those in contention but there has been almost nothing on here about him. Is this just al.com trying to gin up readership by making this look like a big AU-ALA battle....that they are predicting will be won by Bama? If we are really a factor, why no news?

AU64 10,122 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I didn't even know AU was still in it No matter...if he picks bama...the headlines will read " Missouri TE selects Alabama over Auburn"....though it appears that Ohio State is bama's strongest competitor for him.

Look at his 247 crystal balls - Bama, Ohio State and Missouri. Nobody CB'd him to Auburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually they posted it on the Auburn section because everyone knows that's where the bammers spend their time. Most of them are more interested in what's going on at AU than with their own team. And as noted, they are trying to create a competitive situation where none exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFDTiger80 790 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 No one with AU insight has ever projected this kid to us. It is ridiculous that we are paying any attention at all to this. Let's move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tivo48 31 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 It's Bama Hale Hentges @HaHentges 9s After much deliberation and prayer, I have decided to play football at The University of Alabama! #RollTide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autan 737 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 No one with AU insight has ever projected this kid to us. It is ridiculous that we are paying any attention at all to this. Let's move on. Apparently he was our No. 1 TE target, but I don't think we were ever his favorite. However this announcement is surprising. I never thought he would commit to AU, but I wouldn't think he would be a good fit at UAT either. Hope it works out for the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueridge 29 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 This is no real loss to the good guys, and no great addition to Junior Samples U.. Hentges is a slow, undersized TE-how did he ever get 4 stars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had committed to us, you all would have been ecstatic. He is good enough that our coaches wanted him and thought he could help the team, but he's not coming here. Best of luck to him except when he plays us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a bammer but seriously him committing to Bama was his decision and it shouldn't be a big deal! I'm sure CGM has something up his sleeve.
