Well get ready for a recruting overload. They just posted a breakdown for every target so it might take a while for me to type but it's coming

Offense
WRs:
4* Nate Craig-Meyers AU trending. OV to OM on 29th. FSU out.
4* Ahhmon Richards AU-Miami battle. Miami trending
4* Tre Nixon AU gets final OV. AU-UGA-OM are top three. UGA feeling good

OTs:
4* EJ Price OV to AU this weekend. Could go either way between UGA-AU. Most predict UGA
3* Breontae Matthews if offered he likely OVs next weekend. KSU leads right now
3* Lucas Niang AU-TCU battle. Most feel TCU lead
4* Eric Swenson recently decommitted from Michigan
5* Landon Dickerson FSU/UT lead. Very close with FSU Oline coach

Defense
DT:
5* Derrick Brown AU, UGA, UT, Bama are final four. OVs UGA then UT. Most believe it's a AU-UGA battle but some believe AU and Bama are the ones that are trending
5* Rashan Gary Michigan
4* Karamo Dioubate MIchigan State trending
4* Michail Carter Bama and UGA on top

DE:
4* Prince Sammons OVs AU on 29th. Duke is the favorite
5* Antonneous Clayton UF commit. Whether he OVs to AU is still up in the air

LB:
5* Ben Davis Auburn no better than 3rd right now
4* Jaleel Laguins UGA commit. Hoping to get him to OV
3* Josh Uche leaning UF but is definitely listening to our pitch
4* Elysee Ebem-Bosse likes AU a lot. Many schools interested but not sure where he's a take

CB:
4* Jordan Griffin UK commit. Trying to get him on a visit
4* Jayvaughn Meyers AU trending. Could be done with visits

S:
4* Nigel Warrior Vols legacy. Vols are favorite. Likes playing time available at AU a lot
3* Stephen Davis on commit watch

Also Character is now OVing us this weekend. He was originally supposed to visit VT this weekend but bad weather canceled it. So he likely visits VT next weekend. VT isn't supposed to be a threat though

Also my own take on our commits:

Hamm, McClain, Barrett and Stove seem to have pretty much shut things down and will stick.

Coe is being pursued by Bama. I think he'll stick.
Character could go either way between us and USCe
Marshall being heavily pursued by UGA. He's all over the place so who knows

And the rest of our commits are already enrolled


HOWS THAT FOR GETTING THE THREAD BACK ON TRACK?!

Appreciate you actually following through with this.

As far as movies go,
Thunderdome= Mad Max 3.
Jangalang= Bernie Mac as a homo in prison that did little more than rub himself and REPEAT his name. If the name fits...

And we all want LBs considering past performance. Ben Davis would be huge, but I'd be happy with any of the guys on your list. Depth is much needed. Hope McBride and Williams can make an impact this year

So it seems like of major prospects the only ones left up in the air are Nate and Jayvaughn who we seem to have a pretty good lead with and Brown and Price who is likely going to UGA.

Doesn't seem like we'll get a lot of signing day drama this year.

If the linebacker class consists of only Threat and Bosse, that will be very disappointing.

So perfect world sounds like class is

4* WR Nate Craig-Myers
4* OT Landon Dickerson
5* DT Derrick Brown
5* LB Ben Davis
4* CB Jayvaughn Myers
3* CB/S Stephen Davis Jr
4* S Nigel Warrior

Yes I realize that is extremely unlikely but a man can dream

Yep... I agree on the linebackers, although some are speculating Davis Jr may end up at LB.

I know I've harped on this before, but you can see how the lack of consistency in our coaching staff at LB is affecting us... Travis williams is what, the forth LB coach Gus has had here?... Ellis Johnson, muschamp/Thompson, now TW.

Really hope we get Ignont and Benton next year. Along with QB and OT (please stick Ashley) that will be our major need. Probably gonna need a stud RB next year too.

why? Considering teams are in nickel about 70% of the time nowadays we only really put 2 true LBs on the field. And we already signed a bunch of LBs that are good in the last class (Darrell, McBryde, Holland) and Tre Williams and Deshaun Davis in the class before them. You could consider Montravius Atkinson a LB as well. Cam Toney is there too.

We have a crap ton of LBs now that I list them out.

KK, we have a crap ton of linebackers but mostly we don't know what they look like on the field yet eschew Tre Williams and Holland. We may need more serviceable depth next year and I don't think Threat and Bosse can provide that next year.
