Could Ohio products Trey DePriest (LB) and Braxton Miller (QB) end up heading to SEC country? Well, Alabama's version of Bucknuts, called Crimson Confidential, is posing that question. Their case is built upon the fact that DePriest didn't grow up an Ohio State fan, and doesn't feel the need to stay in state (much like Jordan Hicks). It also sounds like he is pretty impressed with Alabama.

"I like Alabama," Trey said. "It's pretty sweet. I saw the academic set up and I liked it. I got a chance to look at everything on my visit. I met with coach Sunseri and I like him quite a bit."

Obviously, Alabama will be a player until the end for DePriest. What about Braxton Miller? Well, Justin Hopkins of Crimson Confidential wonders if the close friendship between Miller and DePriest could result in them heading to the Crimson Tide together (they both have offers). Ohio State experts have been pushing this idea of them playing together for awhile.

"Yeah me and Braxton could play together in college," Trey said. "You never know. He's my boy, it could happen." 

Should be interesting since these two are both premiere targets for the Buckeyes. Any good news? Well, Braxton Miller was spotted Thursday watching the Ohio State practice decked out in Buckeye apparel. Better believe the staff is putting on the full court press, and then maybe the Buckeyes can tap into the Miller-DePriest relationship.
