Supposedly a possible commitment coming today from both brothers who were always package deals.

Current GT commit Jaytlin Askew just tweeted GT 2017 class is about to grow. Also 2 247 crystal balls just popped for GT.

GT could be getting 2 really good players today.

For those of you who dont know, their father Pat Swilling was an all american DB at GT for the famed black watch defense and his number is retired at GT.

Supposedly a GT/LSU/USCw battle that was expected to go down to the wire. A bit surprising if they doncommit somewhere today.

They've been out of the LSU picture for a while. Our mods have said they are both looking to go OOS. wouldn't be surprised if they pick GT.

Would be pretty cool for them to come back and follow Pat.

They don't have the chest to be fighting tigers.

There was an article last week stating they were waiting until NSD. They are probably playing some games.

Regardless both will end up out of state. I don't think there is much interest between the swilling's or LSU

I am not sure Tre Swilling could commit to LSU even if he wanted to. Bruce is definitely the star of that package

The same Pat Swilling who was an All-Pro LB for the Saints right?

Bruce was adopted by the Swillings in the 8th grade so I doubt Bruce feels that "pressure" to live up to the legacy of Pat.

Oh I dont think Pat pressured them at all. Pat was very fair to their wants. Took them to many programs. Ted Roof, GTs current DC, played with Pat on that defense so obviously Ted was pitching the legacy angle. But Pat was very hands off on his opinion. Pat is a great man and an all time great.

@Sheadixon: Tre Swilling's headed to Georgia Tech. Bruce Jordan-Swilling tells me he has yet to commit. Will announce his decision this week. @247Sports
