TUSCALOOSA, Alabama — It was a slow night for Alabama draft hopefuls.
Only Cyrus Kouandjio came off the board as Saturday shapes up to be an eventful day for the remaining Crimson Tide prospects.
Quarterback AJ McCarron and receiver Kevin Norwood figure to be among the first players taken from Alabama when Rounds 4-7 start at 11 a.m. CT.
Through three rounds, Alabama's had three players drafted. That's the fewest over that span in the Nick Saban era since Alabama went without a draft pick in 2008. The Tide had as many as five go in the first three rounds. The 2012 class had four in the first round alone.
Last season, Alabama had nine total draft picks with four coming in the first three rounds.
Of the eight players remaining with at least an outside shot of being drafted, three were underclassmen who left school early. Before this year, Eddie Lacy was the latest underclassman selected under Saban when he went No. 61 to Green Bay. Lacy went on to earn NFL offensive rookie of the year honors.
Defensive end Jeoffrey Pagan, linebacker Adrian Hubbard and safety Vinnie Sunseri each left Alabama a year early for the draft. Juniors HaHa Clinton-Dix and Kouandjio were taken in the first three rounds.
Kouandjio, the Tide's starting left tackle for the past two seasons, went to Buffalo with the 44th overall pick early in the second round.
"Prototypical right tackle, a very aggressive run blocker," Bills general manager Doug Whaley told reporters in Buffalo. "People are going to say against smaller defensive ends he had some trouble. He's not going to be playing against 6-2, 190-pound defensive ends in the NFL. So we're comfortable he'll be able to protect the right side.
"We're excited about his size and his length. And what he lacks in a little foot quickness, he'll make up with length, making them take a bigger arc to get to the quarterback."
It was crickets for the rest of the night as Alabama prospects will have to wait another night before learning their NFL fate.

MOUNTAIN BROOK, Alabama -- On the day before the annual Relay For Life event at Mountain Brook High School, the city continues to inch closer to its $250,000 fundraising goal. At the time of this writing, the city--which currently counts 92 teams and 1,177 participants--has raised $72,892.75, according to the event's website.
If all goes according to previous years' trends, organizers expect to bring in at least another $40-$50,000 on the day of the actual event--Friday, April 4.
Reaching this year's goal, which was set by the American Cancer Society based on previous year's fundraising success, has been a community effort all along.
In speaking about the 2013 Relay For Life event, Event Chair and high school senior Rebecca Lankford said that's how the fight against cancer should be. "
There are very few people in this world that won't be affected by cancer," said Lankford. "Everyone can relate to cancer in some way, can find the motivation to help."
It's a sentiment clearly shared by many in Mountain Brook.
Every Tuesday during the month of March, for example, a host of local restaurants donated 10 percent of their profits to help support Mountain Brook and the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life 2014 campaign. Simply eating ice cream or picking up some tacos, quickly became and inspiration.
Then of course, there was the fundraising work the high school kids were responsible for: the young adults got creative with a variety of talent shows, bake sales, contests, kickball tournaments and 'power buff' volleyball games.
Each event was about bringing the community together for a good cause and a good time.
"All the hard work, all the efforts are more than worth it," said Lankford, "if it means potentially changing someone's life, the chance to one day live in cancer-free world."
It's a dream shared by thousands including Mountain Brook's own, Sean Fredella.
He's a warrior and an inspiration.
Sean--young as he may be--has taken the battle into his own hands. At just 12-years-old, he's been diagnosed with cancer four different times; his young body has battled the disease for nearly 10 years.
It's the desire to shed the title--the boy with cancer--that continues to push him forward, said his mother, Nell in a previous interview with AL.com.
Relay had always been a family affair, she said, a tradition started by Sean's older brothers, Patrick and Ryan.
"As soon as Sean got old enough," said Nell, "he wanted to be part of it, too."
And he was--most years, until 2012, when he missed the event because he was receiving cancer treatment in Houston.
His spirit was always close though, said Nell, close enough to keep everyone back home inspired.
In 2012, much in honor of Sean, Mountain Brook Relay teams helped raise $227,000, considerably more than their $163,000 goal.
In 2013, with a clean bill of health, Sean was able to get back in the game. He worked with his team, SEANstrong, to help raise more than $2,000 through various bake sales and a 'fun run' at Mountain Brook Elementary. He even made an inspirational YouTube video--directed by his brother's friend and Relay Director Paul Styslinger--asking for donations.
This year, with the name "The Red Hot Cancer Pounders" Sean's team has raised $3,453.23, more than double their $1,000 goal, through fundraisers including a paintball event at Fort Red Rock.
Sean, all his supporters and approximately 2,000 other members of the Mountain Brook community will gather tomorrow at Mountain Brook High School Spartan Stadium, 3650 Bethune Drive, from 4 p.m. until midnight in support of "more birthdays."
Last year, the Relay For Life of Mountain Brook surpassed their $250,000 by some $17,000.
As thousands walk at Mountain Brook High tomorrow, they hope to take an even larger step in the right direction.

Just had to share.
My DS just learned to crawl. No one here to share with so I thought i would share with all of you
Wow!! Such an exciting milestone!! I'll just bet you are so proud!
So, how old is your LO now?
Good job! My LO didn't crawl until she was 8 1/2 months. She was more interested in trying to walk and we thought she was going to skip crawling all together! But on vacation she decided to start crawling. She goes like crazy all over the place. She is also getting sturdier on her feet and is taking a few steps on her own. Today she stood up without having to pull up on anything or lean on something to get up!

The Rev. Tony Campbell is vice president of focused impact for the Heart of West Michigan United Way, which emphasizes literacy. He also is associate pastor at Messiah Missionary Baptist Church in Grand Rapids. Campbell serves on the Michigan Community Service Commission, is chairman of the Mentor Michigan Task Force and is on the Student Advancement Foundation board.
Inspiration: I am really inspired by the resiliency of kids. They find ways to not just endure but also to prevail. I'm deeply inspired by the commitment of so many other Giants who have gone before me and done great work in this community. But I'm mostly inspired by the love of God. I believe God loves us in such a powerful way that it's impossible not to respond and love your neighbor.
Winning a Giants award requires a big contribution to the community: You have to have made it a better place to live. Doing that seems to come easy for the 12 African-Americans who received the award Saturday at the annual Giants awards banquet. The honorees were selected by representatives from Grand Rapids Community College and the community.
The top award, Giant Among Giants, was presented at the banquet, to longtime Grand Rapids educator Reuben Smartt.
Here is a list of the winners and their awards:
United Methodist Community House — Raymond Tardy Community Service Award
T.A. El-Amin — Phyllis Scott Activist Award
Larry Barnes — Walter Coe Public Service Award
The Sensational Gospel Tones — H.C. Toliver Religious Life Award
Melita Travis-Johnson — Ethel Coe Humanities Award
Donna Poag — Hattie Beverly Education Award
Essie Bunn — Martha Reynolds Labor Award
Ludie Weddle — Eugene Browning Medical Services Award
Ronald Snead — William Glenn Trailblazer Award
Sandmann's — Milo Brown Business Award
Stacy McGinnis — Floyd Skinner Justice Award
The Rev. Tony Campbell — W. W. Plummer Humanitarian Award
Life lesson: The deepest life lesson I've learned was in eighth grade when my uncle was murdered. A few weeks after that, my next-door neighbor told us Robert Kennedy was murdered, and later, Martin Luther King was assassinated. I was feeling pretty hopeless at that point. My grandmother was working at a Catholic hospital at the time, and I went to the chapel and saw the crucifix, and it just struck me that I was not alone. God was suffering everything we were suffering, and if God was willing to suffer like that, I could carry on.
Vision: I have passion to see young people grow to their fullest potential, spiritually and educationally. I try to be the best servant I can possibly be. To paraphrase Martin Luther King, Jr., at the end of my life I want to say I was able to serve and help somebody be successful.
Rules to live by: Try to live as close as I can to the gospel. I think Jesus lived the blueprint of the values that we are called to live by: grace, mercy, compassion, love and service.
Personal challenge: One of the recent challenges I had was when I left Washington, D.C. and moved to Grand Rapids and didn't know very many people. I didn't have a job at that point, and I was looking for a job where I could try and be a servant. I sympathize with people who are unemployed or underemployed. I share that feeling of waking up in the morning and not knowing what you're going to do, not knowing where the next paycheck is going to come from.
What makes you laugh: My two daughters make me laugh all the time. They are 6 and 4 years old and watching them grow up is just a riot. My pastor, Clifton Rhodes, always finds a way to give you great insight and keep you laughing all the time. Then my son, Paul, played basketball for Calvin College last year. To see him stretch his abilities and grow as a person and as an athlete is one of my proudest moments.

Bright idea for lahar warnings
A group of four girls from Federal Way is on a mission to make the South Sound area safer.
The girls aim to install LED lights on volcano evacuation signs in the Puyallup River Valley. They came up with the idea back in September while working on a science project at Brooklake Christian School in Federal Way.
Their dream is becoming close to a reality. The girls are finalists in a contest sponsored by the Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation. If they win, they will receive $25,000 to implement their plan.
The girls Hannah Zeitler, Alyssa Wolf, Sara Yazdi and Jordyn Wintersole call themselves the LOST group, short for Lights On Sign Technology.
They will spend this week at Disney World in Florida, competing for the winning prize. As one of eight finalists, the team won an all-expenses paid trip to the entertainment park.
Their coach and former teacher, Sharon Gentry, decided to enter the contest because she thought the prize would motivate the students. The contest encouraged middle school children to use the scientific method to solve a real-world problem in their community.
The girls, riding in a car near Orting, considered the volcano evacuation signs.
"We noticed that the volcano evacuation signs weren't really visible," Yazdi said. "They were, like, hiding behind tree branches."
They brainstormed ways to draw attention to the signs when Gentry pointed out the LED lights on a stop sign.
Then they had their idea: Installing LED lights on evacuation signs.
The girls created a wooden border with lights to fit around the edge of the sign. They tested their project at Celebration Park.
An earthquake or a volcanic eruption could cause a lahar, a swift-moving mudflow from a volcano carrying rocks and debris. To survive, people would need to evacuate to high ground quickly.
During a lahar, getting lost or being unfamiliar with the evacuation route could cost a person his or her life, Wolf said. The area would likely lose power and it would be dark. The LED lights on signs would be solar-powered and visible for up to 2 miles.
The LED lights would remain lit all the time, familiarizing people with their location. The lights would flash during an emergency, activated by a radio signal.
Preparing for a lahar in the path of Mount Rainier is important, Wolf said. The last major lahar was 550 years ago.
"Scientists say there's a major lahar every 500 to 1,000 years," she said.
The girls will find out if they win the $25,000 grant on June 21. If they win, they will have one year to implement their plan. They would work with representatives from the Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation to finalize their project and find a company to install the lights.
"Obviously we think our idea is the best," Wolf said.
If the girls don't win, they plan to apply for different grants to install the lights. They hope their idea becomes an international symbol for disaster evacuation signs.
Contact Margo Horner: email@example.com or (253) 925-5565.
The LOST team received letters of support from State Senator Tracey Eide, State Representative Mark Miloscia, Governor Christine Gregoire, Orting Mayor Cheryl Temple, Orting School District Superintendent Jeff Davis, State Representative Skip Priest, Pierce County Emergency Management Director Steven Bailey and Federal Way Mayor Mike Park.

The new home of
4 reviews
Woodmans Stoup is situated in the conservation village of Colyford located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This detached Grade II Listed period farmhouse dates from the 17th century, but has origins that possibly date back earlier than this. The property is a traditionally built thatched cottage and has a number of leaded light windows, some of which are shuttered. The property itself has an immense amount of period character with many original features still insitu such as inglenook fireplaces, flagstone floors, exposed beams, timbers and window seats, all of which combine to create a delightful period ambience and an impressive holiday cottage. It has has been decorated and furnished to a high standard, is ideal for families or groups to get together and is decorated with a Christmas theme during the festive season. Colyford sits on the A3052 midway between Lyme Regis and Sidmouth, and one mile from the beach which is located on the World Heritage Coastline known as the Jurassic Coast. The property has gardens and grounds of about ¾ acre which surround the house and lie principally to the south. Worthy of special note is the delightful cobbled courtyard which is created by the house and barns which enclose it on three sides, ideal for al fresco dining. Within the grounds is the linhay barn, an attractive traditionally built building on two storeys which is built principally of stone under a re-thatched roof, making this a great games room. Also within the grounds is a detached cider barn complete with a very rare horse engine and original cider press. Colyford has a popular post office, general store and butcher which proves a great asset to the village. There are two public houses and a restaurant. The coastal resort of Seaton lies approximately 1 mile to the south and has a wide pebble beach, a small harbour at the mouth of the River Axe and direct access to the World Heritage Coast and South West Peninsular Coastal Path. The market town of Axminster lies about 5½ miles. To the east is the coastal resort of Lyme Regis and to the west are the fishing villages of Beer and Branscombe and the Regency Gothic town of Sidmouth. The county town of Exeter, 23 miles west, provides a comprehensive range of shopping facilities, theatres, and restaurants. Well worth a visit is Seaton Tramway; next to the tramway is the new Seaton Marshes Nature Reserve. The installation of a viewing hide and wheelchair-friendly paths means this beautiful area and its wildlife - wildfowl and wading birds in winter; dragonflies and butterflies in summer - are now easily accessible all year round. There is also a fantastic cycle way as well. There are many NT properties all close by. Golf, sailing, horse riding and many other activities are all available locally. Beach 2 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 100 yards.
Spacious, period character living room with open fire in inglenook, window seat and flagstone floor. Sitting room with TV, piano, feature fireplace and window seat. Dining room with flagstone floor.

Alabama's baseball team learned its NCAA tournament fate this morning, and considering it ducked a major-conference foe, it should be pleased.
The Crimson Tide (34-26) has landed a No. 3 seed in the Conway, S.C. regional at Coastal Carolina. Jim Wells' club will face second-seeded East Carolina (40-19) in the opening round this weekend. Top-seeded Coastal Carolina (47-12) and Columbia (22-28) complete the double-elimination bracket, with the winner of the four-team field advancing as one of 16 super regional qualifiers.
Go here for ticket and schedule information.
Where is Conway, S.C.? It's minutes from Myrtle Beach, as the school's name would suggest, near the Atlantic Coast.
Nine SEC teams made the 64-team field, including Arkansas, which didn't qualify for the conference tournament.
More later from Alabama's team on its first NCAA selection in two years. ...
And while we're at it ... Alabama (56-6) will open the Women's College World Series in Oklahoma City on Thursday at 6 p.m. against Arizona State (61-5). The Tide's softball team was paired on a Pac 10-heavy side of the bracket with Arizona and UCLA. The other bracket consists of Florida, Louisiana-Lafayette, Texas A&M and Virginia Tech. Play begins at noon Thursday.
