Thanks_Tom RR Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Boston just committed to ECU, but he is getting some attention late by several schools, including Alabama and Nebraska. Boston visited Alabama this past weekend but no offer yet. Here is a quote from his HS DC: "Markell has tremendous upside in regards to being a defensive back," Boston's defensive coordinator Ahmand Tinker told BamaOnline. "His potential right now is so unlimited, because he's only played free safety for one year." http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2014/01/alabama_hosting_3-star_safety.html Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Auburn has been in touch with him, but he is a backup plan for them. They are trying to get him to visit and so are we. They've been in touch for awhile longer so I'm guessing they will get the visit, but you never know, we have offered and they haven't. He basically said he would want to play in the SEC Quote Link to comment

Plus, he is in Warren's old stomping grounds. Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Here's how it goes kid. You visit and we will most likely offer, you don't, then you can suck an egg. So choose. Us who will offer if you visit, or Auburn who will at least give you money when you visit. Actually, kind of a tough choice. Quote Link to comment
caveman99 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I thought you had to have an offer to go on an official? Kids visit without them all the time, but I thought those were done as unofficial visits. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I thought you had to have an offer to go on an official? Kids visit without them all the time, but I thought those were done as unofficial visits. Pretty sure you do not have to have an offer to take an official. Quote Link to comment

Seems like someone that is about to blow up and once again our staff is the homing beacon for unearthed talent. Always a good sign when teams like Bama are sniffing around late. They know they are good, but they get the 5 star guys that can play sooner. But sometimes these late blooming kids have more upside, they just take a couple years to develop. Bama can't sit around and wait a couple years, they want production now, and can get it. We've gotten plenty of good prospects this way. Ameer the best of all. Hopefully Auburn doesn't offer, I think he would commit on the spot if they did. Quote Link to comment
