This would start a war on a Tennessee sports website but from what I hear there is likely not a better school to attend in Tennessee than MBA. Private schools in Nashville are very very good. JMO but if I was this kid's dad he'd be committed to Stanford tomorrow.

IMO this is one thing that will always make life difficult for us. Linemen tend to gravitate towards "better" schools.

Of note on Alex, his brother Brad plays for Penn State and his brother Blake plays for Michigan. Also his dad played for NOtre Dame. I don't think it's a given that Alex ends up in the Big Ten though

Love seeing FSU going after more TN kids. It's only one state away.
While the coaches are visiting Gawja and Bammer kids, might as well keep driving on up to Nashville, if only to hear some good music, eat some great barbeque, and witness a town layout that includes a coded format something like this:
Business, church, business, strip club, business, strip club, church, strip club.
The poster formerly known as 31-7. Understood by few, known by many, loved by all.

Lots of schools recruit lineman with similar or worse academic standings than FSU. This is another excuse. If you're bright enough to earn offers from prestigious academic universities, you're bright enough to understand that academics are what you make of them. An athlete will have every resource and connection he needs at FSU.

That argument works when comparing FSU and UGA or UF. We are talking about Vandy and Stanford here.

Regardless, it's an excuse. Not many schools are struggling to recruit lineman in our region.

MBA is a very good school along with Brentwood Academy were Ramsey attended but Ensworth is the king of private schools in the Nashville area now.

When I lived there, MBA was the gold standard. All the country music stars and Old Titans players sent their kids there.
