Apparently 2019 4* S Keontra Smith just committed to UK. He once named us his leader but I think that was when McGriff was on campus

Possibly. He told SECCountry a week ago he would commit in the next 2 weeks.

So this interesting 5* QB Matt Corral just decommitted from USC and has top 3 of Bama, UGA and UF. Curious if this affects Fields recruitment at all

I thought UGA wanted a dual QB. Also you & I both think UF ends in 4th for Fields. Still think it comes down to us, FSU, & maybe UGA if they don't get Corral.

I think UGA is just trying to sell Fields on being different than other guys, not sure if they specifically looking for dual threat but who knows

Tom Loy who is a pretty respectable insider for ND just put in CB picks for Corral to UGA & Fields to FSU

I think it's gonna come down to AU/FSU & the question will be does momma want him all the way down in Tallahassee. One of the main reasons UGA is thought to be favorite to his mom is location. If location proves to be a big factor I think AU wins out but Jimbo gonna be tough to beat

KN has a recruiting insider up this morning

- 3* WR Shedrick Jackson is back on campus. However, KN does not think he commits today. Why? He's working on a commitment video.

- 4* OT Qadir White is camping today at AU. He's from NY & has mentioned us as a top 5 team. If he performs well, KN thinks we will push hard

- Apparently we are trending up for 4* OT Christian Armstrong. His top 3 is supposedly AU/FSU/PSU with most thinking it will a Tigers/Noles battle. FSU is probably 1A right now with AU being 1B

- AU is still a factor with 4* OG Tank Jenkins & might still be the favorite right now. Oklahoma is the major threat tho distance could help AU. FWIW I think Mizzou is team to watch too. They recruiting Montgomery really hard and already have 3* QB James Foster committed.

I don't think 5 hours from home is a big deal. It's not a bad trip. JMO

Updated OP. I am giving up on the screenshots as not sure how useful they were and they are irritating to maintain. I think doing the monthly snapshots is a better way of giving consistent updates on top targets

Just watched Howard Allen's highlights. That's Jeff Holland's cousin that we offered last night who is an OT in 2019 class. Dude just jumped to top of my want list. He's an animal. Not sure how good his competition is as it's 3A FL but dominates it

TIFWIW 1 guy on the Bunker who seems informed said we get Fields unless we crap the bed on the field. Then Hunter Adams who writes some stuff for AU Rivals and has connections to the program, agreed.

This aint the end all be all by any means but it's nice that our program feels really good right now despite the recruiting media feeling FSU is the team to watch.

Been saying this since before he de-committed to PSU.

This is the first time I've ever been in the know, but it is the case.

Stidham's beasts this year. Comes back next year and Fields plays Dameyune Craig to Pat Nix in 18 and then is ready to be the man in 19. Let's do it.

Thought you just said FSU was trending per the experts? So what exactly is it?

He is, go check 247. The last 5 or 6 CBs are to FSU. I'm saying that right now AU is in the driver's seat and barring some sort of recruiting gaffe or on field collapse we should get him.

That said I haven't gotten any info since his FSU visit so maybe he got blown away
