That's it from here...a few notes-

***Miller says he's up to 212 pounds after being around 206 at The Opening after not working out for a while due to a sprained knee.

***Glad to get recruiting behind him and focus on his senior season.

***Plans on going to the LSU game and one more home game. Official after the season

*** Has talked to fellow commits Shaun Hamilton, David Cornwell, and Keith Holcombe. Also WR target Cameron Sims.

***Miller is at tight end on one package this year when they go to double tights. Focusing on improving his game conditioning this year.

Official visit plans for Top247 LB

Top247 prospect Rashaan Evans (Auburn, Ala./Auburn) knows of only one official visit he plans to make for sure, but he has a good idea of where – and when he would like to take his trips. Interestingly enough, the 6-3, 220-pound outside linebacker will visit UCLA Sept. 28 during their bye weekend. The thought process behind that decision is that the Bruins’ staff wants to have the ability to focus on Evans during his 48 hours on campus and maximize their 1-on-1 time with him. The allure of early playing time and playing with high school teammate and UCLA commitment Antreal Allen (Auburn, Ala./Auburn) are sure to be the focus that weekend.

As for his first official visit, Evans would like that to be down the street at Auburn Aug. 31 for the home opener versus Washington State. While they have the ability to get Evans on campus at almost any time, Auburn could benefit from getting the official in before he makes his commitment, which could be in the next three months. The Tigers have emerged as a major contender for the four-star prospect after not being heavily considered early on in the Evans’ recruitment. Like UCLA, Auburn can sell Evans on the opportunity to contribute early.

Up next for Evans will likely be a trip to Athens, Ga. to check out Georgia the weekend of its game versus South Carolina. Just a month ago, the Bulldogs were the leader according to Evans, who now lists them in his top four without order. Georgia was the first to offer Evans, considered by most to be an Auburn lock since he emerged as an FBS prospect. Evans is intrigued by the chance to play in the 3-4 defense, having watched All-American linebacker Jarvis Jones thrive under the scheme the past two years. Jones has gotten to know the Bulldogs’ coaching staff very well over the last year and a half, and if he makes a decision soon, Georgia could still be the team to beat.


Recently Alabama has come into the picture for Evans, with defensive coordinator Kirby Smart showing an increased amount of interest in the No. 6 prospect in Alabama. Early on Evans was infatuated with Alabama and Georgia, so the push by the Crimson Tide bears monitoring moving forward. Interestingly enough, Evans said he would like to take his official visit to Alabama Nov. 9 for the game versus LSU, a weekend that is sure to include an abundance of top prospects in town.

By then Evans could have already made his commitment, as a decision during or shortly after one of the other official visits is not out of the question. It all boils down to how comfortable Evans and his father, former Auburn running back Alan Evans, feel during their time on campus.

A fifth official visit is possible, but as of now no other programs are under serious consideration.
