If he hitchhikes to Cincinnati, I'm going to be pissed.

Hank said he feels like not even reporting anymore of Dean's "plans" to visit, just gonna wait until after he's actually arrived.

Whoever actually sets up all the travel for these kids has to get pissed at all these high school athletes when they bail at the last minute. Where is the “I’m doing what I said I was going to do” from all these kids and parents.

Im really starting to get the feeling that he doesn't want to come here and he doesnt know how to tell us so his mom does the talking for him.

Dean's mom told BOL, but he probably talked to Golding. It's better anyway for him to vist later (probably Iron Bowl) instead of now.

Some threw in the towel on Sophser too when he cancelled a visit earlier this season. Now he's visiting Bama this weekend instead of LSU.

I wouldn't worry about it. That's how every other team feels, too. It'll play out in November. Bama's staff feels very good about him.

Off topic but holy cow is Saquon Barkley good. Sheesh I didn't see him in HS but how was he viewed nationally? I looked him up and he was a 4 star but man he's freaky. Must've been one hell of a late bloomer.

Recruiting "analysts" and even the real experts, the coaches, just miss. Happens all of the time. Even Coach Saban, the best evaluator of them all, misses from time to time. These rankings have some "ball park" value but to act like they are science is madness.

LINK ]Weekend Visit Preview: Where biggest official visits are taking place


Kayvon Thibodeaux
quote:

Top match-ups in the Pac-12, Big Ten and SEC are attracting top prospects this weekend.

The intro to this weekly feature is starting to sound like a broken record, but hopefully it conveys the recruiting proclivity of college programs to have big visit weekends in conjunction with their best home games.

That is when your program puts its best foot forward. The pregame atmosphere is thick with anticipation, the biggest crowds of the year are on-hand and win or lose, top targets are almost certainly going to have a positive experience.

This weekend the biggest home games in college football are taking place in Ann Arbor, Eugene, Baton Rouge and several other college towns across the country. We break down five of those big visit weekends here.

OREGON -- The last time Washington played in Eugene, it snapped a 12-game losing streak against Oregon in this series. This year, the Huskies return as the favorite in a match-up of Top 20 ballclubs, and the Ducks will welcome them with an impressive list of visitors.

Three official visitors highlight the weekend, with five-star California defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux the headliner. Alabama and Florida State previously hosted Thibodeaux for official visits this season, with Florida and USC among the schools with a good shot to host Thibodeaux in the future.

Thibodeaux will be joined on his official visit by a pair of three-star defensive ends in Braylen Ingraham and Isaac Townsend. Ingraham has already made official visits to Oklahoma and Kentucky, and most recently officially visited Alabama the weekend of Sept. 29. Townsend has been committed to the Ducks since June.

Additional Oregon commitments who will be in town for unofficial visits include Rivals100 prospects Mase Funa and Mykael Wright. Mario Cristobal, a one-time Rivals Recruiter of the Year when he was an assistant coach, is showing he is a heck of a recruiting head coach as well, as Oregon currently boasts the No. 3 recruiting class in 2019.

LSU -- The job Ed Orgeron and Co. are doing with this 2019 class may not be getting enough attention. The Tigers head into the weekend with the No. 6-ranked recruiting class and are tied for the most five-stars committed with three. They will look to build upon that this weekend.

There will be just one official visitor, but a whole host of top unofficial visitors, headed to Baton Rouge to see the No. 13-ranked Tigers in their biggest test thus far with No. 2 Georgia coming to town. The official visitor is Siaki Ika, a four-star defensive tackle out of Salt Lake City. A one-time BYU commit, Ika now has a top eight that also includes Alabama, Ohio State and USC. LSU will be Ika’s first official visit of the fall.

Among LSU’s more interesting unofficial visitors expected in this weekend is Rivals100 cornerback Christian Williams, who is currently committed to Alabama. There could be additional prospects committed to rival SEC programs in the stands as well, and they'll be welcomed by a large contingent of LSU commits, including Kardell Thomas. The five-star offensive guard made an official visit to Penn State a couple weekends back, but is staying home this weekend to be in the stands for the program he has been committed to for more than two years.

Chef has spoken:

quote:

Too far out to make an accurate prediction, but feel good right now about adding sopsher, sanders, dean, webb, neal, to'oto'o, pickens if he can get his academics straight, not sure what is going to happen with the dbs, lots of moving parts.


quote:

Chef, what’s your thoughts on Thibs?

Cautiously optimistic.


Adding the above players would put our score at 327.85.

Stacking 8 five stars would have to be the strongest close of all time.

It seems pretty clear he's not terribly interested in being here.
