The nation’s #2 ranked running back is headed to Alabama.  Four-star prospect Alvin Kamara picked Bama over Georgia.  Bulldog fans are experiencing the opposite of the “Dream Team” scenario from a couple of years ago, with one in-state star after another fleeing for programs outside the state.

For Alabama, the rich get richer… especially at the running back position.

Alabama and Georgia remain the top two candidates to land 2013 running back prospect Alvin Kamara from Norcross (Ga.) High School.

And both schools are making a strong push as Kamara prepares to schedule his official visits.

“Georgia is definitely recruiting me the hardest, with (UGA commitments) Shaq Wiggins, Tray Matthews and all of them,” Kamara told ESPN RecruitingNation. “(Alabama defensive coordinator) Kirby Smart and them are really persistent, so Alabama’s coaching staff is on me harder.”

Other schools are, too. While Alabama and Georgia lead the race for Kamara’s services, he told ESPN he’s still considering other schools.

“Oregon is still in the mix, as is Tennessee, Oklahoma State and Florida State,” he said. “But Georgia and Alabama are definitely the top two.”

Kamara said earlier this month he would like to make a final decision before October. That plan appears to have changed.

“It is still early in September, so I just want to visit each school, set my officials and go from there,” Kamara told ESPN.

Alabama already has two running backs committed to the 2013 class and could have a third by Sept. 27. That’s when Yulee, Fla., running back Derrick Henry plans to announce his decision.

Henry, who’s also considering Tennessee, plans to visit Alabama this weekend before he makes his final decision. Henry has continued to call the Crimson Tide his leader.

Alabama and Georgia are the top two teams in the race to land running back Alvin Kamara from Norcross (Ga.) High School.

Kamara told Rivals.com he’s still considering four other schools: Tennessee, Florida State, Oklahoma State and Oregon.

“I came out with a top two of UGA and Alabama,” Kamara said. “I just feel like they have the edge over the other four schools that I have in my top six.”

The other schools will have to catch up quickly to have a chance at landing Kamara, who could make a decision soon.

“I’m still trying to probably get it done this month,” Kamara said. “We will just have to wait and see. I know I’ll hold the cards close when it comes to my decision time, but it’s all about a feeling. You can’t really put a time on a feeling.”

Georgia has been considered a favorite to land Kamara since running back Derrick Henry from Yulee, Fla., decommitted from the Bulldogs in June. He’s considering Alabama and Tennessee, both of whom are continuing to recruit Kamara.

Henry could also make his decision this month, with Sept. 28 being a possible announcement date.

Running back Alvin Kamara from Norcross (Ga.) High School is still considering 10 schools.

Kamara told Mansell there’s “no order” for the 10 schools he’s considering. He’s expected to take visits in the near future before he further reduces his list.

Kamara is the nation’s fifth-best running back and No. 56 prospect overall, according to ESPN RecruitingNation. Georgia has been considered the leader for Kamara, according to a recent ESPN report.
