Jerrell Harris puts on Houndstooth
At a news conference in Gadsden, the four-star linebacker and No. 3 player on the Birmingham News' Super Senior list, stood at the podium. He looked down at the table containing five baseball caps representing his final five choices: Alabama, Auburn, Tennessee, Southern Cal, and Clemson.
He was talking into a microphone and thanking everyone and all that... then he looked down and shook his head:
"I like all these schools," Harris said, "but I don't think I'll wear any of these."
With that, Harris put his hand into a shelf in the podium and did it Andre Smith style. He tugged on that Houndstooth hat a la Bear Bryant, squeezed it on over his braids and looked out at the crowd:
"I'm going to the University of Alabama," he said.
For University of Alabama coach Nick Saban, not a bad way to end National Signing Day... Now we have 1 hour, 38 minutes until he talks about it.
