Three new offers...
Rodriguez Price, running back, Fairburn, Ga. Offers: Akron and Army Height: 5-foot-9 Weight: 175 Speed: 4.4 Notes: To me, Price's highlight video showed a rather tackleable runner who does have a burst of speed.
Alex Bayer, tight end, Pickering, Ohio Offers: Akron, Bowling Green and Miami (Ohio) Height: 6-4 Weight: 222 Speed: 4.78 Notes: Bayer is agile and has reliable hands, according to Rivals.com.
Jonathan Atchison, linebacker, Atlanta Offers: Akron, Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Indiana, LSU, Louisville, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Rutgers, Vanderbilt, West Virginia, East Carolina and Navy Height: 6-3 Weight: 216 Speed: 4.54 Notes: It looks like Atchison is headed for Alabama. Even if he's not a future member of the Tide, the other SEC, Big 10, ACC and Big East schools should preclude Akron's hopes.
