Also consider Riley Cole was asked to delay enrollment and GS (which I hate seeing losing him because of needs at S)
he was not going to be a S for us. he was tweeting a while back he was up to 230. hes out most likely because we think we will land 2 or 3 top LBs on NSD

Is no one expecting us to sign Josh Jacobs anymore? I'm not seeing him on people's predictions anymore.

Probably money

McGriff and Steele have a solid reputation for recruiting. What our staff lacks in development and scheming we make up on the trail.

This doesn't make sense to me. Most on this board have assumed for a long while that Wilson and Davis are Bama bound.

Reading his dad's comments, it doesn't sound like we told him he's going to GS. It was more like "we might have you GS once all is said and done" and Cole was having none of it.

who knows, maybe the spot is required for a different positional need. there has been rumors of multiple silent commits in this class. i know we dont need to take 4 LBs based on what we have on campus now. maybe they feel great about davis, wilson, and juarez. i dont see us talking about redshirting to our only LB commit the week before signing day unless we knew we were cleaning up on NSD at that position.

I'm loving the Knott pickup.

Just need Brown to follow him.

Lots of crazy stuff going on with Rashan Gary and Derrick Brown.

The barn and Clemson trending strongly with Gary. We're trending strongly for Brown. As of this afternoon, VERY good shot at Brown.

Michigan may very well find out how the game is played in the Deep South.

This Gary recruitment is shady. Something isn't right with the whole thing.

Clemson board was saying Gary is down to Michigan and Clemson.

ETA: ESPN article I read said he was down to two, but his mom refused to name the two.

Leaning to Bama for a week or so. MSU trying to make last minute pitch. Probably pretty close now. Cristobal thinks he's a 1st round draft pick in 3 years. VERY high on our board. Staff compares him to Fluker and Cam Robinson.

We'll see how much Michigan REALLY wants him. Because the barn and Clemson are 2 of the 5 worst to be going up against in one of these situations.

Gary mom playing the role of $cams dad. How can you blame the kid if he knows nothing about the pay for play scheme ? Big loophole there.

Meanwhile who would win a celebrity death match between landon collins mom and Garys mom ?

Someone who has a direct pipeline to the coaching staff just posted something extremely vague with no names mentioned that leads me to believe we just landed a huge commit. He's extremely reliable, but I know absolutely nothing more than what I just posted. Take it for what it's worth.

Again, though, we're trending very well for Derrick Brown. Sure would be nice. Would make our class complete as far as needs filled.
