Thanks man, I had forgotten about the gray shirts. Shula and company
seem to be doing a damn good job on the recruiting front.

Bama lands a tough RB
Star running back Glen Coffee (6-0, 207, 4.4) of Fort
Walton Beach, FL gets his love for football from his
mother. He gets the toughness to play the game from
his father.
"I was a boxer in the Air Force and I've always
worked with him since he was a little kid," Glenwood
Coffee says. "But he loves football because of his
mother. She's a huge New Orleans Saints fan."
And on Wednesday night the Coffee's became huge fans
of the Alabama Crimson Tide. That's because at 8 PM
Glen Coffee committed to Alabama assistant coach Bob
Connelly and head coach Mike Shula during a phone
conversation.
"Basically, we as parents helped our son reach his
decision," Glenwood Coffee says. "We did a lot of
research into it and Alabama is going to be very
good. If they hadn't have had all those injuries,
especially to their quarterback, they would've had a
great team this past season. You look at that and the
fact that they really wanted Glen, and we just came
to the conclusion that Alabama would be the place for
him.
"Plus, D.J. Hall was a freshman receiver up there
this year. He was a rival in high school at
Choctawhatchee High School here in Fort Walton. We
played against him for the district title every year
and he and Glen became friends."
This past season Coffee had 1,886 yards rushing, 350
yards receiving and 29 touchdowns.
"He's a between-the-tackles runner," Fort Walton
Beach offensive coordinator Jim Ryan told TI in an
interview earlier this year. "He loves contact. He's
very strong. He can bench 370 pounds and that's with
a second pause on the chest. He parallel squats 485
and power cleans 340. He's just a physical kid with
speed and quickness. He's a legitimate 4.4."
Last spring Coffee made a big impression when he was
named the MVP at the NIKE Combine in Baton Rouge.
"That was a great award for him," Glenwood Coffee
says. "He's worked hard to get where he is, and we're
very proud of him. Alabama's campus is just four
hours from here and we're already looking forward to
seeing him play."
Coffee is scheduled to make his official visit to
Alabama on January 7-9. He chose the Tide over West
Virginia and Louisville. He also considered Auburn
and LSU.
