I was told something tonight that makes total sense.

We've already got the safeties we need - we wanted to make a LB out of Nasirldeen and he wants to remain a safety at FSU (Skai Moore is going to be the big safety). Forget about losing Nasirldeen if we can ... it hurts our class ranking but we're in desperate need of DLinemen and this frees up another scholly for another DLineman which I am still being told is going to be the surprise.

Wish I knew more about how Wideman was doing BTW. Something strange going-on with him.

I don't think the coaches are giving-up on Nasirldeen as much as they are not worrying about what he does and making a move in another direction - seems like maybe they had a contingency plan for this for the past week or so.

We may just have enough DBs and Safeties in this class already, along with transfers, etc., provided we sign Williams.

Nobody seems to be panicking over there - just the opposite. Everyone is focused on the upcoming visits.

Moving moore to safety makes sense. If he came back I would imagine nfl is on his mind and he would be more likely at safety than lb at the next level. I heard the EE safety Dickerson was underrated and stood the possibility of getting decent playing time this year. I would assume eldridge Thompson would be who steps up at lb. Will-Thompson, Mike- Baw, Sam-Brunson.

Everything I've heard on Wideman was if we get anything out of him it would be good, but not expecting much.

I feel like every time we get a high profile S or CB commit, they just end up flipping. Not saying it is necessarily fact, but I feel like for some reason, recruiting a solid defensive backfield here has become nearly impossible.
