There was a thread on 247 quoting a vols fan that stated his brother's cousin uncles sister knew someone close to the Vols and they feel like they're losing their grip on Morris.

Actually that came LSU recruiting board & they seem to think means he's flipping to LSU

quote:

This class would be huge if we get Owen, Booth, Morris, Nix, Pickens, Haselwood

I am trying so hard not dream of it but that's the class right there. Pull that & I don't really care what everyone else did because those are day 1 players

quote:

On the flip side as Rusty eluded to.. We could lose Owen and Pickens, miss on Morris and Booth and the class looks totally different.

Been weird because Kipp doesn't seem to think it's gonna happen but ya Rusty keeps playing these games. He was dead set on Owen being at UGA leading up to like a week before so obviously someone he speaks too thinks it will happen

quote:


Will be fun to watch it shake out

Class has legitimate top 3 potential but at the same time could easily land in the back of the top 10 like normal. Sure would be nice if we could go out & win us an SEC title to push some guys over the edge.....

Louisville mod just CB'd Khris Bogle to the Cardinals. That would be a shocker....

KN has followed up article this morning. 4* ATH Zion Puckett told 247 late last night he will be committing in a few weeks & has a top 5 of AU/BAMA/OHST/TEN/SCAR. KN's sources still believe AU is the team to beat and is one AU's top DB targets. However, he's visiting Tennessee this weekend. He has an OV to AU set for 10/12. KN says he's confirmed that OHST is very high on him as well


Would be absolutely huge to go into season with Puckett & Booth already on board. Might be done with DB recruiting by kickoff

KN also has article on 4* RB Noah Cain. Cain told 247 that he really trusts Tim Horton & loves his honesty. Cain hasn't named public leaders but it's believed AU is in his top group with LSU & TEX. Cain admits that last year he would never have believed AU would be one of his top schools but his first visit surpassed expectations and called AU "real, not flashy". Says AU is recruiting him really hard right now. When his mom visited AU her goal was to figure out if she thought AU was honest. Said his dad is easy to convince, just show him nice facilities & food ( ) mom is much tougher as she wants to know if coaching staff is being real. She came away feeling good about AU & answers they gave to her questions. Says AU texts him everyday & that he talks a lot with Bo Nix & George Pickens who are both recruiting him hard to AU


Love to hear Pickens is recruiting hard for AU

Rusty says he's hearing that Clay Webb is visiting UGA this weekend

If Kirby steals him from Saban expect NCAA to show up the next day

I keep seeing that these 2 are constantly recruiting players to AU, yet people are worried about losing Pickens?

AU fans are understandably nervous when it comes to elite instate talent that's being pursued by Bama

Until he signs it's hard to feel comfortable. However, fact multiple prospects have said he's recruiting them hard to AU is a great sign

Random food for thought, I am thinking we are gonna see some DB attrition after this season if AU does in fact sign a 6 man DB class (I am including Handy-Holly). That big of a class following a 5 man DB class from last year makes me think staff isn't high on guys like Jayvaughn Myers, Malcolm Askew and Traivon Leonard. Especially when someone like Noah Igbinoghene seems to easily take a starting job despite no background as a DB

Who's trending for some of the best in the South? (Rivals)

If you track recruits for a living and follow their day to day recruitment, then you see a lot of twists and turns and ebbs and flows as it plays out. A new offer, a phone call or even a text message can quickly change things for a recruit, but at this time, we see Arkansas, Auburn, Clemson and Florida State trending for some of the top talent in the south.

4* LB Kalen Deloach

TRENDING: Florida State

Originally, Deloach planned to only visit Auburn this weekend for their recruiting event, but he now plans to return to Tallahassee (Sunday) as well. He visited Florida State the second week of June and the Seminoles are viewed by some now as the favorite to land the athletic Peach State linebacker. Alabama, Auburn (will visit there Saturday) and Michigan are three other programs high on Deloach’s list at this time, but as he gets ready to start his senior year, Florida State is the school trending. Deloach does not plan to commit until after his senior season.

The good news is he's still planning on coming to AU. When I first read this I thought it was saying he was going to FSU over AU but he's just gonna head to Tallahassee after AU's event

3* DE Colby Wooden

TRENDING: Auburn

This is a battle between the Tigers, and although Wooden has not dropped any hints on if he is leaning towards Auburn or Clemson, there has been some chatter behind the scenes that the favorite is Auburn at this time. Clemson is still very much in this as well, but Dabo Swinney appears to be chasing Gus Malzahn for this one. Wooden has stayed fairly quiet about this, but he plans reveal his choice August 16.

FWIW what George is doing behind the scenes doesn't mesh with public or in interviews. Behind the scenes he is putting in work for AU. Publicly & in interviews he is playing the recruiting game. I would trust the behind the scenes stuff right now FWIW.

Interesting & possibly very real theory. It would mean though taking 1 less at 1 of these positions than latest intel indicated. 4 OL instead of 5. 4 DL instead of 5. 2 LB instead of 3. Of those scenarios my guess is the 4 OL or 2 LBs would be most likely.

Ya I just don't see 3 LBs right now. Seems like majority of our top remaining targets are trending elsewhere but AU isn't really (or at least nothing publicly) looking into backup options. Tells me either we feel better about somebody than is being reported or we aren't gonna reach at LB & use a spot elsewhere

According to CLEM 247 Colby Wooden has not confirmed whether he will visit AU or CLEM this weekend (or both)

Also says that UGA is trying to get Booth on campus for their big weekend event
