Mitchell and Corely who already committed most likely.

ETA: Mitchell may have been involved in the Jersey visit by the staff a few nights ago.

Tweet from the same guy from a couple of days ago.

Eric Thompson @_EricThompson:
(NJVarsity.com) LINK ranked Damon Mitchell the #1 QB in NJ ahead of Miami QB commit Kevin Olsen."

I don't follow recruiting much anymore. I'm way out of the loop by message board standards.

I see Rivals had us where ever this morning. I don't know what's in the works or who is visiting.

Any chance this ends up being a respectable group?

It is already on par with Petrino's classes in reference to the rest of the SEC according to the recruiting sites with plenty of of chances for improvement, FWIW.

It is possible to finish ahead of Kentucky, Tennessee, Mizzou, Vandy and Ms. State and maybe one other SEC school depending on who signs which would put it on par or better than Petrino's best class according to the recruiting rankings in the SEC.

GT isn't in the position to be yanking schollys to kids who want to take OVs elsewhere, filing waivers to be bowl eligible based off APR and what not...


Paul Johnson has always done that. If you commit you aren't allowed to take any other visits or else he pulls your scholarship. Did the same thing Flowers when he came here for a visit. If Mitchell makes it here for his visit I would bet he commits.

A QB? Really? Thought coach B said that we were full up on qb's for this year. Tyler Cogswell will be disappoint.


Yeah I really hope he doesn't get on twitter and talk about how much we screwed him.....


In all seriousness if you have a chance to get an athlete of this caliber who could play QB or safety you do it.

dudes offer list is underwhelming to say the least. It's like he's going to GT b/c there's nowhere else worth a frick on that list besides Iowa, and don't see a kid from NJ ever moving to Iowa

Anybody hear something about a JUCO walkon 5-10, 265 lb fullback? Caught the tail end of discussion on DTS...

ETA: Assuming they were talking about Hogs...

The latest on RB Denzell Evans Reply
Bret Bielema and Joel Thomas will be in his home tomorrow night. Evans obviously is looking forward to this weekend's visit and he's already made up his mind that if the Hogs offer, he'll get on the phone immediately to call Houston and let them know he's flipping to Arkansas. Said he won't waste any time committing to the Hogs. I asked for his gut feeling on Dwayne Johnson and he said prior to the Arkansas visit he would have said Nebraska, but he now feels there's a "very good" chance Dwayne ends up a Hog. His words, not mine.

Denzell's very, very excited about his chances of earning this offer. He's done his research on Wisconsin's former backs and their production. We'll see how it plays out for him. Great young man either way.

sounds like we threw the house at Collins tonight

Running back Alex Collins of South Plantation, Fla. high school tweeted he just had an in-home with Coach Bret Bielema, offensive coordinator Jim Chaney, running backs coach Joel Thomas and defensive line coach Charlie Partridge. He called it a great visit.

Yeah, you don't want to do that, a buddy of mine from HS had this happen, ended up losing one.
