TideNation recruiting writer Greg Ostendorf brings you another edition of The O-zone, a confidential look inside Alabama recruiting. Get the latest updates from the gridiron and the hardwood as it pertains to the Crimson Tide.
Sunshine State trio
Alabama’s top remaining target in 2013 is five-star offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil, and the Tide continue to get help recruiting him from ESPN 150 commitments Derrick Henry and DeMarcus Walker. Henry and Walker have pitched the idea of the Florida trio playing together at the next level. Tunsil visited UA earlier this month for the Texas A&M game which just so happened to be the same weekend that Henry was in town. The two talked throughout the visit about the chance to one day be teammates at Alabama. Currently, Tunsil has the Tide in his top two along with Georgia. Unlike the other two, Tunsil is not expected to enroll early and plans to wait until signing day to make a final decision.
