This, and its a business meant to generate subscriptions, so of course most sites will slant this recruitment a little to its market.

Having said that, I like Keith because, while he does have and quotes "sources" in AU's program, he typically takes a methodical approach in making projections on recruits - his common quote is "follow the visits". He sees where kids go often, and who they hang out with on visits and relies on this a lot more than what he is told by sources. It seems to be a little more objective, I think. But its recruiting so nothing is an exact science, obviously.

Great point.

Think it's safe to say it's AU/UGA as of now. But who knows

What I've seen on our side is verbal later this month, or early August.

If after that, he's Auburn I'd assume.

Would like to hear Auburn's info on their side.

Either way..... Lots of people will be disappointed
