2 sources close to yle Davis feel it's an AU/Tennessee battle w/ UGA a distant 3rd. Keith ain buying the UGA distant 3rd part FWIW.


Of course he's not. Because that isn't vague enough for ol' Keef. Surprised he didn't throw in a line about a mystery team just to cover his bases.

Here's quotes from Kyle's dad at The Opening that may support the above sources' info
quote:

"With the spread offense that Tennessee, Auburn and South Carolina run, they really compliment him," Kyle's father, Ron Davis, told AL.com Wednesday during The Opening in Oregon. "It's always good to go into something that you know. I just don't see UGA being one that would actually develop him as well as some of the other schools would.

"I know Georgia is giving him a lot of hype about what they're doing... but Kyle needs to go to a school that best enhances his skill and somewhere that can prepare him for the next level."

Auburn wide receivers coach Dameyune Craig has played an instrumental role in recruiting Kyle to the Plains and has impressed the family by becoming a mentor.

"(Craig) recruits with a real-life approach as opposed to just selling the school," Ron Davis said. "I want to be able to turn my son over to someone who I know is going to take care of him as opposed to him burying him in the depth chart and allowing him to do things he shouldn't be doing. His mother and I have done a great job of raising him, and we want to feel comfortable."

I can't confirm but on the UGA board they said Kyle came out the next day and pretty much shot those comments down saying his dad doesn't know what he's talking about and that he's a track guy anyway and his mom will have much more sway on his decision than dad.

Why not? He's not recruiting for Bama on visits. If he did then I would agree on your why.

If I'm a coach I have better things to do than take time hosting a kid who is 100% going to play for my biggest rival.

Good thing you're not a coach then.

Tuberville seemed to share your mentality.

Probably just want to leave a good impression on him. These kids talk to each other a lot and just because he is a bama lock the recruits he talks to aren't. Also kids this age are very impressionable there's always that small chance he hits it off with one of our recruits and wants to play with them ect..

Prime example.. Keef said Mbosse and Nick Coe hit it off today after meeting for the first and landing one will get the other now.

Nothing is 100% til the fax is in. Glad you are not a recruiter. You give up way to easily. Besides it hurts nothing him visiting. The staff will be here anyway.

Like Rashaan Evans? I'm sure Bama fans weren't screaming to not recruit him.

Rashaan Evans is one of the all time anomalies of recruiting. Who knew his dad was a bitter schmuck after all these years?

Ben Davis isn't coming to AU, dwi.

We all agree with you on this, but you have to keep the door open for weird stuff to happen *see Rashan Evans*

Keef says that AU is trending big time with Marlon Davidson. Also says as previously mentioned two team race for Antwan Jackson AU and OSU

I never said he was, did I? But as a coach, you keep plugging for the top LB in case he is an anomaly like Evans.

@ZachAbolverdi: Five-star DE Shavar Manuel lists #LSU, #UF and #Auburn as his top schools. Asked about #FSU, he says, "I see myself as more of an SEC guy."
