So much for Lane Kiffin’s domination of Memphis.

Nick Saban has his first recruit of the 2010 class as Keiwone Malone committed to the Alabama Crimson Tide, according to Rivals.com. The recruit hails from Memphis. He is 6’1″, 165 lbs and runs 4.4 in the 40.

Malone had 73 receptions for 1,407 yards and 19 touchdowns (average of 19.3 ypc) in his junior season. He had 1,249 yards on 70 catches and 12 touchdowns as a sophomore.

Malone’s speed should help stretch opposing defenses for the Crimson Tide, provided that Lane Kiffin doesn’t build that fence a little taller around Tennessee.

  4. Lance Thompson has now recanted his famed “We are going to OWN Memphis” remark.
    Says Thompson:
    “Did I say Memphis? I meant Bumpus. Bumpus Tennessee. Its the new mecca for College recruits in the Great State of Tennessee. It is my little ace in the hole. Yepper, My little secret…”
