Rivals 3 Stripe Atlanta prospects predict where top players will land (Rivals)

AUSTELL, Ga. - It’s our job at Rivals.com to cut through all the noise and zero in on where the nation’s top players will end up playing their college football. Sometimes when it comes to searching for information, the best intel comes from fellow elite prospects.
At Sunday’s Atlanta stop of the Rivals 3 Stripe Camp Series presented by adidas event, we surveyed several prospects about where four elite prospects will eventually land. Here are the results.

quote:
5* C Clay Webb
THE PICK: Alabama
WHY: “I think Clay will go to Alabama because of his relationships with Pierce Quick and Paul Tyson.” – Rivals100 OL Amari Kight
THE PICK: Alabama
WHY: “He has the body and the ability that they need.” – 2020 DT Jayson Jones
THE PICK: Auburn
WHY: “He’s from Alabama. Alabama doesn’t produce that many offensive linemen, and youcan’t let a guy like that get out of the state. Auburn seems to be an offensive line feeder for the NFL. — Four-star DE Derrick McLendon II
This McLendon kid sounds like a good guy

4* LB Owen Pappoe
THE PICK: Tennessee
WHY: “I can see him playing there.” – 2020 Rivals100 Harrison Bailey

THE PICK: Auburn
WHY: “He is there almost every weekend.” – Four-star Alabama DE commit Rashad Cheney
THE PICK: Auburn
WHY: “Because when I was talking to one of their linebackers, he told me that Owen really liked it there.” – Rivals250 WR Ramel Keyton
THE PICK: Georgia
WHY: “Because he wants to stay home and Kirby Smart is after him a lot.” – Rivals100 Georgia DB commit Jalen Perry
THE PICK: Georgia
WHY: “Owen is just like Roquan (Smith). They are the exact same player. It is a great fit.” — McLendon
THE PICK: Auburn
WHY: “I’m pretty sure he’s going to Auburn, just by the way he’s talked about it and what I’ve heard." — 2020 wide receiver Donovan Moorer
Interesting comment by Cheney saying Pappoe is always at AU. Also LOL at Harrison Bailey. I think we know where that kid's going next season

THE PICK: Alabama or Tennessee
WHY: “I see Jaylen going to Alabama or Tennessee because he visits those two constantly.” – Ojulari
THE PICK: Tennessee
WHY: “I pick Tennessee because he has been trying to get me to commit there. It is between them and South Carolina.” – Keyton
THE PICK: Alabama
WHY: “Because they will need defensive backs after losing many to the NFL Draft.” – Perry
THE PICK: Alabama
WHY: “He’s their type of safety. He’s a knock-your-teeth-out type of safety, like Minkah Fitzpatrick.” — McLendon
THE PICK: Alabama
WHY: “He’s on my 7-on-7 team, and I think it is going to be Alabama.” — Moorer
Apparently he's not a take for Bama right now. Has said in the past will OV to AU. The concerns most teams have is his speed

RCS Atlanta: Five teams with buzz among top prospects (Rivals)
quote:
AUSTELL, Ga. — With the Rivals Camp Series presented by adidas now in full swing, we take a look back at Sunday’s Rivals 3 Stripe Camp in the Atlanta area to identify five college programs whose fan bases should be feeling good after the event. Whether it was an impressive performance by a commit on the field, or buzzworthy comments by top targets during the media session, here are the five teams that had some buzz on a rainy, windy morning.

1. GEORGIA
The Georgia Bulldogs signed the No. 1 recruiting class in 2018 and the Bulldogs are on their way to another strong class in 2019. Kirby Smart prides himself in keeping the top talent home, so with the camp in Atlanta this weekend, there were plenty of Bulldog targets competing.
Jalen Perry is a four-star defensive back and he is committed to Smart and the Bulldogs. He left with an invite to the Rivals 100 five-star challenge. Staying in the 2019 class, Derrick McLendon was named the Defensive Line MVP and he has the Bulldogs in his top five. A decision for him could come before his senior year. This camp was loaded with top underclassmen, and many are considering UGA. Zykeivous Walker, BJ Ojulari, Myles Murphy, Sergio Allen and Arik Gilbert are five on that list. Perry was the only one committed Sunday, but Georgia will get more from this camp before all is said and done.
If you want to talk about one Georgia may be in with a little more than people think, look at Amari Kight from Alabama. He was back at Georgia for a second time this weekend on Saturday. Those like Kight are very hard to get out of Alabama, but he spoke very highly of the Dawgs on Sunday.

2. AUBURN
When Auburn has success on the recruiting trail, it usually signs a strong group from Alabama and Georgia. The state of Georgia is key to Auburn and some talent on hand Sunday could end up on the Plains.
Lets start with the 2019 class and wide receiver Ramel Keyton out of Marietta (Ga.). He has a long list of offers, but Auburn and Tennessee may be the favorites at this time. Looking one class younger, Andy Boykin is already committed to the Tigers and Myles Murphy is a top target that has a family connection there.
Staying in state, 2019 offensive linemen Clay Webb and Amari Kight have to be high on the list and 2020 Quandarrious Robinson down too. Robinson plays at Jackson-Olin in Birmingham, the school that sent TD Moultry to Auburn in 2017 and Coynis Miller to Auburn in 2018.

3. FLORIDA
The Florida Gators will definitely recruit their home state first, but they hope to be very active in Georgia under Dan Mullen. They just signed Emory Jones and Trey Dean out of the Peach State in 2018.
Who could they take out of Georgia in 2019 that was at the camp Sunday? There is some chatter around Tyron Hopper and him being a Gator lean, but he has not come out and said that yet. What about Keiondre Jones? His cousin Emory is already there and the two would love to play together. McLendon is another that has the Gators high on his list. They are working on Georgia commit Perry too. He visited the Swamp not that long ago.
What about in the 2020 class? Running back Jordon Simmons was offered by Florida recently when he was on a visit to Gainesville. Jamaal Abrams is a linebacker out of Birmingham (Ala.) Jackson-Olin and he is already committed to the Gators. Mullen knows it starts in the Sunshine State, but he is going to look into Alabama, Georgia and surrounding states to see who can help him too.

4. ALABAMA
Since Nick Saban took over at Alabama, he has made Georgia a priority in recruiting. He has definitely had his share of success in the Peach State. Kirby Smart has made it a little more difficult for him in Georgia since he took over at his alma mater, but Saban recently picked up a commitment from Rashad Cheney. He is a defensive lineman who worked inside and outside Sunday.
Others in Georgia that Alabama will likely pursue are Myles Murphy, Arik Gilbert, Harrison Bailey and Joquavious Marks. All four are 2020 prospects with offers from the Crimson Tide.
Where is starts for Alabama though is at home and two of the best Sunday were Clay Webb and Amari Kight. Both are top targets for Saban and his staff and Alabama does as good of a job as anyone at keeping top talent home in most years.

5. TENNESSEE
Jeremy Pruitt is working to change the culture at Tennessee and to get the Vols back to where their fans think they should be — competing for SEC titles. With the talent base in Tennessee not too deep, the Vols have to go outside their border to fill the majority of their recruiting class each year. They must have at least some success in the state of Georgia.
At Marietta (Ga.), the Vols have offered a list of prospects and at least three that competed Sunday have become major targets. The one closest to a decision is wide receiver Ramel Keyton. It could come down to Auburn and Tennessee, but he still lists other possibilities. Harrison Bailey and Arik Gilbert are two others at Marietta that have the Vols on their radar. Gilbert actually named Tennessee as his top school Sunday in an interview before the camp started.
Linebacker Kalen Deloach is another one that Tennessee is recruiting. Clemson, South Carolina and Michigan are at least three of the schools the Vols are up against in this race.

I think Hurts would be a grad transfer.
Not sure they can limit his choices.

just imagine the melt of beating Bama with Hurts as QB. Murder in the streets

George Pickens competing in the Atlanta camp that 247 is covering, trying to earn an invite to The Opening. Side-benefit: he won't be at UGA!

Or Bama
On another note, how the hell did he not get an invite after apparently showing out in ATL?
Posted on 4/20/18 at 1:52 pm to TigerPaw1
Something interesting. Clay Webb will be at UGA spring game instead of Bama one. There was some smoke coming from Bama camp they might convince him to go ahead & pull the trigger this weekend

Well Keith just said camp is Sunday. Pickens will either be at Bama or UGA Saturday...
