Rumors Walker won't visit UGA this weekend. No idea if that's good or bad for us

Even if Walker doesn't sign with us, Walker choosing Bama or Tennessee over UGA is definitely good for us.

2019 4* S Cortez Andrews expected to visit for junior day. Think he's an early Bama lean

FWIW seems like this junior day is loaded with more top ranked players than any we had last cycle. Could be recency bias but seems like more higher rated guys interested earlier in 2019 class

KN put up a Target Watch today. Puts prospects in 3 categories of Trending Up, Holding Steady & Trending Down. Up doesn't mean AU is favorite but just says what direction AU is moving with that prospect. Here's summary

Trending Up
- 4* DL Malik Langham: Bama the leader but fact he's now gonna take an OV to AU is huge. AU staff will visit him tomorrow. Tigers trending right direction but not sure if they can overcome Tide's lead. Will make decision on NSD

- 4* DE Caleb Tannor: AU/UF battle with AU trending up. Gus visited last night & it went well. Chance he visits FSU or MIA this week but AU thought to have momentum. Will announce on NSD

- 3* DL Caleb Johnson: UF looks like the likely landing spot due to AU & UGA having number crunches. AU likes him a lot but right now Tannor & Langham might be higher on the board

Holding Steady
- OT Calvin Anderson: AU/MICH/TEX battle with AU expected to host him on OV either this weekend or the next. Grimes will visit Anderson tomorrow

- 3* CB CD Daniels: Would commit if offered waiting to see if AU has a spot

- 4* WR JaMarr Chase: Has canceled 2 previous OVs due to scheduling issues (was injured 1st time, death in family 2nd time). Despite that still has AU in his top 2 & expected to visit this weekend. LSU is the favorite but AU has shot at pulling the shocker

- 4* LB Quay Walker: Visited this past weekend but KN says hard to get much info on him. Most of his sources doesn't think he sticks with Tide & UGA/TEN seem more confident than AU right now. However Tigers still think they are very much in the race. Malzahn will visit Walker this week.

- 4* OT Dylan Wonnum: He came away impressed after OV on Jan 12-14 & Malzahn/Porter visited him Monday which went well. AU thinks they are still in the race but SCAR is still considered team to beat

- 4* WR Justyn Ross: Fresh off OV that went well but still seems like AU traililng in race. KN does say that he's heard Ross is torn on the decision. Gus will take in home most likely Friday. Both BAMA & CLEM have some confidence

Trending Down
- 4* OT Richard Gouraige: CLEM/UF probably lead AU after Hand left. After a good visit between Grimes & Horton last week some confidence he would OV this weekend but as of now that visit doesn't look likely

- 3* TE Matt Alaimo: AU probably could have landed him after his OV but appears Tigers aren't gonna take a TE

- 3* CB Joseph Foucha: Chance AU might be done at CB with McCreary on board. As of now, Foucha still expected to visit but chance that changes. ARK now the favorite

- 3* DT John Mincey: AU started talking to Mincey again recently. He wanted to commit in November to AU but Tigers told him to wait. Did not end up visiting last weekend like AU had hoped. Trending SCAR

- 3* ATH Nathaniel Watson: MSST commit but if AU pushed they could probably flip. Doesn't look like AU will push

looks like Ross to Bama is a done deal he made a commitment video with Al.com before AU OV right after his trip to Bama

This is probably a dumb question but who does commitment videos on NSD?

How would him at Bama be good for us? He would be playing against us.
