Scouting: Alex Dale

At first glance the 5' 9", 175-pound defender does not look that intimidating but do not let his size fool you.

Name: Alex Dale
School: MSU (Tenn)
Position: Cornerback
Size: 5' 9", 175-pounds
Class: 2012
Recruitment: Committed to Cinci
Scout.com Ranking: 2-Star/#127 CB

Scout.com live evaluation: Personally we think many schools are missing the boat with Alex Dale and Cincinnati is getting themselves a steal. Dale plays with good instincts and is athletic enough to cover and physical enough to support the run. He will need to work on his speed for the next level but is tough enough to move over to safety on the next level.
