It’s been awhile since we podcasted here at Aaron Torres Sports, but it only seems appropriate that with my return, I make it for a special occasion. Well, that is exactly what we have today, as our old friend Barrett Sallee from the Bleacher Report talks about his interview from earlier this week with the nation’s No. 1 high school recruit in the class of 2013, Georgia defensive end Robert Nkemdiche (you can watch the interview here).

This is a bit of a shorter podcast than usual, but Barrett brings the goods as always, discussing Nkemdiche, his college choice and more, starting with:
- After originally stating that he’d commit this spring, Nkemdiche decided to put things off until the fall. Why was that? And what does it say about the character of Nkemdiche to wait?
- Why the most important variable in his college decision could have nothing to do with college at all, but instead with how pro scouts project Nkemdiche at the next level. Will he be a 3-4 linebacker or a 4-3 defensive end? And how the answer to that question, may decide his college fate.
- If he is projected as a 4-3 defensive end, does that mean that Alabama is out of the mix completely? And if so, is there anything Nick Saban can do- using his wealth of NFL knowledge- to help sway the kid the other way?
- After saying that he’d like to visit a couple schools outside of SEC country, is there any chance Nkemdiche could end up going far away from home? Do schools like Texas, USC or Oregon stand a chance in landing him?
- With his brother already on the roster, could Ole Miss potentially land the No. 1 recruit in the country?
- And finally, where does Barrett think Nkemdiche will end up after making his decision a year from now?
Folks, over the next nine or so months you’re going to hear a lot about the recruitment of high school football superstar Robert Nkemdiche, but why listen to others when you can instead get information straight from someone who talked to him earlier this week? Barrett Sallee is that guy, and if you’re a fan of a school recruiting Nkemdiche, this is worth a listen.
