I know we all have a good laugh at kids' names that could potentially land on the All-Name Team each recruiting cycle, but the JUCO rankings for this year could field their own team.
I was looking for a prospect and saw a crazy name. Then they just kept coming. I was like this:

Are there any predictions for Jeffrey Simmons and aj brown?
Posted on 12/23/15 at 9:18 am to BAMAinMS
No. Neither State nor OM had predictions.

After thinking about it I take it you are referring to Derrick Brown?
Yup. Right after Pruitt came aboard, there was some optimistic smoke about DB. Any further news?

Is Josh Perry going to stick because of Shyheim Carter? Or does he decommit regardless?

Im stoked about jonah williams as lt of the future. The guy is prototypical, athletic, and incredibly aggresive run blocking

The latest news appears to be good for Georgia. He has a great relationship with Tracy Rocker and they are retaining him as their DL coach (which is good news for us as well because there was talk Bo Davis or Tosh Lupoi might follow Kirby to take that role).
I'd rather him go to Georgia than Auburn if we can't get him. I'm not saying it's impossible, but if I was a betting man I would bet he ends up in Athens with Kirby.

Jonah Williams and Jalen Hurts signed financial aid agreements. I hope it doesn't bite us in the arse
Cam Robinson signed one with us and LSU back in the Class of 2014 cycle. We didn't have an issue there so I think we'll be okay with these two, especially Williams. I don't think he has even talked to another coach since he committed.

It's been very quiet on the Perry front for a while now. I know Pruitt was the main reason for Carter's decommitment and now we have him. Perry said he was solid back then so I assume he's even more solid now that Carter is probably coming back into the fold.
Their Junior buddy, Devonta Smith, who is committed to Georgia may end up flipping to us as well.

Absolutely.
He certainly makes missing on Greg Little less hurtful.

Michigan has gotten the last couple CB's for OT Jean Delance.
Posted on 12/23/15 at 10:35 pm to TideSaint
We haven't offered him, but TaDarryl Marshall got a CB to Kentucky from our friend Demetric Warren.
After what Tennessee did to him I'm glad he'll still get a chance to play in the SEC.

Well this is interesting:

quote:
As GigEm247 first reported last week, Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin made an in-home visit with four-star Alabama commit Jalen Hurts right before the NCAA dead period.
A few days later, Kyler Murray announced that he would be transferring, leaving the Aggies with only one scholarship quarterback, Jake Hubenak, heading into next season.
Per a source close to Hurts, the Nation's top rated dual-threat passer actually signed his financial aid paperwork in November, before A&M re-entered the picture.
We're told that the door is not completely shut on the Aggies potentially flipping the Top247 prospect. Also, as our source put it today, "He (Jalen) will be ready for whichever," in terms of also being applied to Texas A&M and ready to enroll if he chooses to stay closer to home.
Unlike midterm JUCO prospects, financial aid papers are not binding for high school players. They only bind the school to the prospect. Texas A&M doesn't being spring classes until Jan. 19th so Hurts would have plenty of time to get admitted and possibly take an official visit after the dead period.
Alabama and Texas A&M coaches will also have time for another in-home visit after the dead period before Hurts would have to begin classes at either University.
