247 has had some risers. A couple a blurbs about a couple of them below, a little bit of info on where these kids are at ATM.

quote:

Roquan Smith, LB, Montezuma (Ga.) Macon County
+37 (No. 68 overall)- The Georgia linebacker has seen his recruitment pick up serious steam of late. This looks to be a Georgia-Auburn battle early on with the Bulldogs in good shape.

Seems logical Roquan would now be pursued as a star but someone somewhere recently said he's being recruited as plain ol LB. Film says star.

quote:

Torrance Gibson, QB, Plantation (Fla.) American Heritage
+19 (No. 10 overall) Gibson is a special athlete. He's 6-foot-4, runs in the 4.5-second range and has a strong arm. Gibson wants to play quarterback in college. Auburn and Ohio State, which are good system fits, are heavily in the mix early.

Torrance is being recruited for his awesomeness.

quote:

Damarkus Lodge, WR, Cedar Hill (Texas)
+13 (No. 39 overall) Lodge caught more than 70 passes for more than 1,200 yards this past season and could be the top receiver in a state that produces more than its share. Baylor and Texas A&M are trending with the Bears, who signed one of the top WR classes in 2014, the pick on Crystal Ball.

Rhett visited Lodge, who's fracking fantastic, but a long shot apparently. Gus has a history at Cedar Hill having recruited QB Damion Hobbs to ArkSt. (ended up at Oregon after Gus left), so maybe he's got a good thing with the coach. He's great with the HS coaches, we know that.



Noticed also that Jarrett Stidham is up 9 to 37. Chad Morris was at Stephenville when he begged Gus for his offense, and in looking the film it doesn't seem like a whole lot has changed. Kid would transition seamlessly at Auburn.

Art Briles was a legend at Stephenville before Morris and he might end up getting this kid. Him or TTech.

Stidham has a lot of upside. He's actually played very little QB as I believe was a WR in his first year or two of HS.

He's also from Kentucky originally and there is talk that he would be perfectly fine with leaving the state of Texas, although Texas Tech/Taylor do look good early.

Are we just not comfortable with Queen at QB? Next year you'd have a QB roster of JJ, White, and Queen plus whatever scrub walkons there might be. That's three highly capable kids at QB.

Gus wants 3 QBs out of the '14/'15 classes. Missed on Treon, so now Queen gets a QB classmate. Queen's a gamer, though. He's a football player.

4 QBs is always the ideal number.

Plus you don't pass on Gibson even if we had 7 QBs.

I'm very happy about this.

And he said he was alright with this. One or both likely RS their frosh year and if the the guy in his class with him is so good as to beat him out, he likely goes pro after 3 and Queen gets Jr/Sr year

Who have been recognized as the players who we have a legitimate shot with?

Oh yeah...

Treon would not have filled that spot. We recruited him just like we did and still are Jason Smith, purely as an ATH with a shot at QB. The 3 OBs in 2 years means the staff wants guys they specifically see as QBs only, whether it be pocket or Dual QBs.
