NEVER COUNT OUT ALABAMA

Alabama did not offer in-state running back Asa Martin as early as Auburn and Florida. Just a couple of months ago, his recruitment was down to the Tigers and Gators, but the Crimson Tide have turned up the heat. Behind the scenes, quite a few observers like Alabama's chances. He has visited Tuscaloosa three times since he was offered April 22 and he is scheduled to commit on Aug. 24. He plans to visit Florida again in July and he was at Auburn just over a week ago. This could go one of three ways, but it is hard to ever go against Nick Saban when he truly targets someone, especially when it's an in-state prospect.

FIFTH STAR COMING?

Had he been healthy, Clay Webb very well could have earned Offensive Line MVP honors. During the morning session, Webb's shoulder popped out, and the tough guy that he is, he popped it right back in. He went on to bench press 225 pounds 20 times after the shoulder injury to finish third in the Strong Man competition. He was very confident that he would have won if not for the shoulder injury.

Webb was held out of the afternoon session, but he showed enough in the first few hours to really put himself into the five-star discussion when the 2019 rankings are updated. He is so strong, he plays with good leverage and once he locks his hands in, it is over for the defensive linemen. Alabama, Auburn, Florida and Georgia are the early favorites.



When was the last time a 5th star was given to a Center?

FIRST OFFER MEANS SOMETHING

Numerous schools have come through and offered Derrick McLendon, a 2019 defensive end out of Tucker, Ga., this spring but Florida, the first school to offer, stands out right now. He has talked up Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and others that have offered in 2017, but Florida offering first has put the Gators in a good spot at this stage. McLendon said in Indianapolis that Florida was leading his recruitment, and the Gators being the first school to offer has something to do with it.

HILL AND JACKSON PLAN TO PLAY TOGETHER

Trey Hill and Kearis Jackson, two of the best prospects in Georgia, plan to play together on the next level. Hill discussed it some in Indianapolis, but Jackson constantly talked about the two playing on the same college team. There were some other names thrown around with these two as possible future teammates, but these two are likely headed to same the school. Auburn, Florida and Georgia are three of the common schools for the Peach State pair. Jackson likes Alabama while Hill likes Clemson, but it looks like these two Rivals250 talents could be roommates on the next level.

Dorian Hardy committed to Penn State over the weekend. We were his leader at one point, but he's taken a huge slide in the rankings since last year.

There was a lot of movement out West in the New Scout 300. Two players moved in to the 300, six players received their 4th star and several others moved up in the overall position rankings. Here's a closer look.

Highester Riser: Jack Tuttle

San Marcos (Calif.) Mission Hills quarterback Jack Tuttle jumps from the No. 44 player in the West to No. 13 and No. 199 in the Scout 300 to No. 51. Tuttle has made incredible progress in the last year and improved in every facet of his game. He's bigger and stronger physically and throwing with a ton of confidence. The jump in both arm strength and accuracy is very noticeable and he has always been a very poised quarterback and a natural leader. The Utah commit should have a great college career.

More Significant Risers Inside The Scout 300

Cameron Latu, DL, Salt Lake City (Utah) Olympia

Latu is now the top rated defensive end out West and jumped from the No. 137 prospect nationally to No. 103. Latu has dominated at every event he attended and will be fun to watch at The Opening Finals in July.

Trey Knox


Think he plays with Teague and OSU was his favorite before Teague committed. Rumor is he may pull the trigger this week and commit

Would be a great start to 2019

now to be fair I will give him credir for Christian Tutt. He kept saying all along that he would have to camp before he was able to commit so I will give him that
