Todd Harris says two schools are really in his mind a lot... he said they are both "winners", but he doesn't want to give too much away.
He has official visits set to Alabama, LSU and Ole miss for January. Key factors for him: how coaches relate to parents, playing time and how he fits in. He is a signing day kid.
Shot in the dark, but I think the two schools are probably Alabama and LSU.

I wish he would have stuck with us, but at least he isn't going to LSU, Tennessee or Ole Miss.

WR James Robinson will take an OV here January 20th.
Kid is the real deal!
Is this a legit shot or a back up plan in case ruggs & smith both go elsewhere.
I mean no way you tell a 6-3 200 wr with his skills you don't have room.
Right now he's considered a heavy gaytor lean ?

Yeah Fla fans are feeling that mac is getting killed with recruiting right now.
That recruiting help alone is worth the move.
Maybe why we feel we have a shot at Robinson the WR out of lakeland.

Robinson is leaning to UF, but even if he wasn't, how would we have room for him with Smith and Ruggs leaning to UA? I don't understand who we have on our board or how we make numbers work?

Does McElwain only hire assistants that worked for Saban?

Pretty much. Between them and UGA, I am not sure which one is trying harder to be Bama-lite.
I'm leaning toward UGA. Even their commits are using Savage17 when VanDarius Cowan was the one who started the whole "Savages want to play with savages" recruiting slogan.

Chris Allen says he is still listening to other schools and may take other visits in January, including to Colorado. He said that it was close between Alabama and LSU, and that he dreamed of playing for Les Miles. LSU is still pressing for him.

Phidarian Mathis article:
LINK
quote:
The Latest: During his recruitment, Phidarian Mathis has mentioned several programs but on Tuesday he said his options are now officially narrowed to two schools, LSU and Alabama. That backs up the presumption that many outsiders have had, but Mathis saying it in his own words carries a little more weight. Here’s what he had to say about his recruitment.
In His Words:
LSU: “I’ll be taking my official visit Jan. 13. LSU is always talking to me, calling me, making sure we’re staying up on things together. I really like how things have changed with Coach O. The program has more energy and guys love playing for him and that’s what I like.”
Alabama: “I’ll be taking my official visit Jan. 20. It’s a big defense, they’re like a train once they get rolling. They have a lot of great players. I think I would fit in well in their defense. We will see how things go on that visit.”
Rivals Reaction: Things appear to be shaping up for LSU to nab Mathis and keep him in-state. Obviously Alabama remains a viable option, but the Tide are also heavily in the mix for five-star Aubrey Solomon. When it comes down to it, the situation at LSU seems most appealing with the combination of proximity and ability to see the field early. Expect a decision to come shortly after his visit to Alabama.
