| Ronnie Clark can play on either side of the ball |
About the only thing that surprises me about the Ronnie Clark commitment to Alabama that he was rated four stars and not five. Despite some of the hardest recruiting by Auburn I've ever seen for an in-state player the Tide won out. From Calera it is barely over an hour to Lee County. In the end none of that matter as Clark committed to Bama calling his choice 'firm'. The two way star at Calera High School in Shelby County was a prize that over 75 schools wanted to sign. The 6-3 inch 190 lb. senior can run the offense as a quarterback and can knock your brain sideways as a safety. At Alabama he will be given a chance to play offense but many believe he will end up as a safety or perhaps a wide receiver. He is a national top 60 recruit. His skill set is perfect for what Nick Saban expects out of his players. Fans talk about what a nice person he is in his personal life, and about a tireless work ethic to prepare himself for college.
Clark adds to Bama's lead in the national recruiting wars according to Rivals.com. Some recruiting experts believe that Clark is in the same mold as C.J. Mosely and may end up as linebacker. That's a lot of offensive firepower moving over to the defense. That is a perfect example of why the SEC is so much better on defense than other conferences. When you take a player with the speed and quickness as Clark and make him a linebacker you've got speed to chase down speed.About the only thing that surprises me about the Ronnie Clark commitment to Alabama that he was rated four stars and not five.
