re: 2017 Football Recruiting Thread ["N$D Bryant" Edition]

In other news Rivals put out update to rankings. Some names we care about

Risers
4* QB Kellen Mond 185 -> 101

quote:

---

“Mond is a player whose sum is greater than his parts when discussing what makes him so good. Not super flashy, just does everything well with a quick, compact throwing motion and a great pocket presence. Mond recently de-committed from Baylor. He released a top three of Auburn, Ohio State and Texas A&M with Auburn thought to be the leader.” – Rivals.com Texas Recruiting Analyst Nick Krueger

---

4* S Grant Delpit (visited for BCW) NR -> 112

quote:

---

“Delpit is a big-bodied safety that does a good job of not letting the play get behind him and closing on the ball. He has shown this spring that he sees the game well and will scoop up any tipped pass for an interception. Delpit released a top 10 in late April, but since then Florida State, Michigan and South Carolina have offered. LSU, Clemson and USC have been recent favorites.” - Krueger

---

4* LB Kenney Britt NR -> 122

quote:

---

“Britt carries no bad weight and moves as well as any linebacker of his size. His agility and build make him special. Britt seems to favor Auburn but a recent Stanford offer may change things.” – Rivals.com Southeast Recruiting Analyst Rob Cassidy

---

3* DE LaTrell Bumphus (AU recently offered) NR -> 249

quote:

---

“Bumphus started his career as a tight end but his recent move to defensive end has sparked interest from some the of the country's top programs. He's still raw but with his athleticism he has a high ceiling and that's why he made the move up the ranks. Alabama, Oregon, Auburn, Tennessee and several others are in the mix for Bumphus.” - Wommack

---

Fallers
4* LB Will Ignont 55 -> 114

quote:

---

“Ignont has added some weight and has lost a step in quickness. Some on staff think it has affected him in coverage but he remains a top-flight linebacker with tremendous size. Ignont's recruitment will likely come down to an in-state battle between Alabama and Auburn.” - Cassidy

---

4* ATH Bruce Judson (named us in his top 10 last week) 88 -> 170

quote:

---

“Judson, who plays quarterback in high school, remains quick and has some great physical tools, but he's a man without a true position for the time being. He's probably best at wide receiver, where his athleticism shines. It's just that he needs to polish his craft. Arizona, UFC, Florida and Pitt are among the serious contenders to land Judson.” - Cassidy

Anyone else not that high on Benton? He reminds me too much of a Kris Frost in terms of physicality.

Ingnot announcing this week too. Bama gonna lay the smack down on us and have half of our silents commit to them. Big slap in the face.

You're usually spot on with things, so probably

Not that hard to see if you've been following his recruitment.

He was all AU early then Bama showed a little attention and he appeared all but gone. Now he's sliding in rankings and goes to see them Sunday they tell him no thanks and he comes running back to AU to grab a spot.

Doesn't bother me. He's one of my fav along with Britt



The other theory KN reported is he wasn't a take for Bama until he camped with them Sunday.

It's possible Benton is going to Bama so they decided to pass on Ignont. Might explain him going from a Bama lock to undecided between us and them so sudden

A Kris Frost in physicality would be nice as long as he had the LB instincts to go along with it.

Can't believe we are gonna lose Bentonville when we thought he might commit like 3 days ago. Oh well typical au lb recruiting

God damn you're miserable
