When Jerry Jeudy was a sophomore and Alabama freshman All-American Calvin Ridley was a senior, they were teammates at Monarch High. Next year, they will be teammates once again.Jeudy, the nations No. 26-ranked prospect in the ESPN 300 for 2017, committed to Alabama over Miami, Florida, Florida State and Tennessee on Thursday night, continuing the recent trend of highly ranked receivers from South Florida heading to Tuscaloosa.Its the best fit for me. I felt like Alabama was home for me, and they have had good receivers from South Florida go there, Jeudy said.The No. 4-ranked receiver in the country, Jeudy began his recruitment with Alabama as the top choice and finished the same. He follows in the footsteps of Ridley and former All-American Amari Cooper by picking the Crimson Tide.The state of Florida continues to be fruitful for Alabamas 2017 class. Jeudy, an Under Armour All-American, joins five-star offensive tackle Alex Leatherwood, ESPN 300 linebacker Vandarius Cowan, four-star quarterback Mac Jones, long snapper Thomas Fletcher and junior college cornerback Jhavonte Dean.In the Nick Saban era, five Alabama players have been recruited out of Florida and gone on to the NFL: Amari Cooper, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Derrick Henry, Trent Richardson and Ed Stinson.Alabama boasted the No. 4-ranked class in the country before Jeudy verbally committed. The Crimson Tide are in search of a 10th straight top-three class, and Jeudys commitment helps keep that in play. He joins five-star recruits Leatherwood and Najee Harris, along with eight other ESPN 300 prospects.The Crimson Tide remain in contention for several more ESPN 300 prospects, including five-star recruits Isaiah Wilson and Dylan Moses, along with offensive guard Jedrick Wills, receiver Devonta Smith and defensive end LaBryan Ray.

Larry Johnson Jersey .Y. -- Vancouver Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo had little trouble picking up his first shutout of the season against a Buffalo Sabres team thats having trouble scoring goals. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Brock Osweiler threw two touchdown passes, Kareem Jackson returned an interception 42 yards for a score and the Houston Texans handed the Jacksonville Jaguars another home loss, 24-13 Sunday.The Texans (6-3) scored on offense and defense and set up another score with special teams, a complete team effort that led to their first road win of the season and kept them perfect (3-0) against the AFC South. They won their fifth in a row against Jacksonville.The Jaguars (2-7) lost their fourth straight and fell to 0-4 at home. Coach Gus Bradleys team rallied late, with Blake Bortles hitting Allen Robinson for a touchdown and again for a 2-point conversion.But the Texans converted a third-and-5 play with 2 minutes to play, essentially ending the game. It dropped Bradleys record to 14-43 in four seasons and prompted even the most loyal supporters to question why owner Shad Khan hasnt made a change.Houston had been downright dismal on the road this season, scoring just one touchdown in lopsided losses at New England, Minnesota and Denver. The Texans found Jacksonville to be much more hospitable, especially on the opening drive.On the fifth play of the game, Jackson stepped in front of Allen Hurns, tipped the ball up, bobbled it, secured it and sauntered down the sideline before juking Bortles and high-stepping into the end zone.Osweiler made it 14-7 later in the first quarter with a 1-yard pass to wide-open tight end Ryan Griffin. Punt returner Tyler Ervin did most of the work on Houstons third touchdown, weaving his way for 57 yards and setting the Texans up at the 7-yard line. Osweiler hooked up with Stephen Anderson on the next play.Nick Novak, who missed two field goals earlier in the game, connected on a 51-yarder with 8::32 remaining that gave Houston some breathing room.ddddddddddddThe Jaguars struggled to move the ball consistently all afternoon and added to their lowlight reel in the second quarter when Bortles did the most Bortles thing of his career.Under heavy pressure and trying to ground the ball near tightly covered running back T.J. Yeldon, Bortles hit Yeldon in the foot. The ball bounced up and landed in linebacker Whitney Mercilus hands for an interception. It was Bortles second pick of the day and his sixth in the last five games.MISSING MENEven though it came against dysfunctional Jacksonville, Houstons victory was somewhat impressive considering how many key players the team was without.Starting receiver Will Fuller (knee), run-stuffing nose tackle Vince Wilfork (groin) and cornerback A.J. Bouye (ankle) were inactive. So was fellow receiver Jaelen Strong, leaving the Texans with just three healthy wideouts (DeAndre Hopkins, Braxton Miller and Keith Mumphrey). Houston turned to its tight ends for help.DROUGHT CONTINUESThe Jaguars failed once again to score a touchdown on their opening possession, extending the NFLs longest current TD drought to open games.Jacksonvilles streak is now at 23 games after Bortles interception. The Jaguars havent found the end zone on their opening drive since Week 2 of the 2015 season against Miami. Since then, they have 17 punts, three field goals and three turnovers -- all interceptions this season -- in their initial possessions. Bortles also threw opening-drive picks against Green Bay and Chicago.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
