4* OG John Simpson:
quote:

I am being told North Charleston (S.C.) Fort Dorchester four-star offensive lineman John Simpson will not be visiting Alabama next weekend as originally planned. The South Carolina staff continues to work him to get him on campus for the visit. He could make a decision on that as early as tomorrow.


3* ATH Yafari Werts:
quote:

“When I went in my meeting with Coach Muschamp, he said he had to honor some other scholarships. He said he should know a lot by midweek, so he said he’d give me a call.”

“It would mean a lot,” Werts said if he were to be offered by the Gamecocks. “South Carolina has always been kind of my dream school. Playing close to home, it would mean a lot to my family.”

“I’m going to wait and see what Coach Muschamp has to say,” Werts said. “Right now, I’m still committed to Georgia Southern. I’m going to hear everybody’s plans for me about my future.”


3* DE D.J. Wossum:
quote:

-The Gamecocks are recruiting him to play the "BUCK" position in their defense.
-He said his attributes are his "speed, long arms and pass rushing ability"
-Wossum believes he can contribute early at South Carolina.
-He says he will enroll at South Carolina in June.


4* DT Stephon Taylor stating he's down to FSU & Texas.

Damn ... that kid is only a HS JR? He frickin'' almost broke my hand when he shook it. And she is a sweet, beautiful, young lady. They're a cute young couple of kids. I hope he ends up here .... all this time I've been waiting to see his name mentioned in this class.

The top rated recruit in Miami's 2016 recruiting class, 4-star WR Sam Bruce is set to make his final announcement for his collegiate destination later today.


Hearing Buckeyes may have the upper hand.

I figure our recruiting, except for maybe one, possibly two, players will be done by this Thursday. We may not know for sure until Monday and week but the visits this coming weekend are pretty much a formality, correct?

Sure would like to see us close strong before signing day - only eight, or nine, days away including the final dead period.

What are our chances with Randrecous Davis? I saw where he is down to us and Miami. 100% CB's to Miami at the moment.

Evidently Smart dumped him from the UGA list right? So it's between Miami and us and he's already been to Miami and he's supposed to visit us this weekend ... which he will.

I like our chances personally. BMac recruited him while at UGA and if we can just get him up here we've got a good shot. It would not surprise me to see us land him this coming weekend ... he's definitely one of the two we'd take if he waited until Monday to decide.

#STRecruiting: DL Stephon Taylor of New Orleans confirms his plans to take an official visit to USC this weekend. He's been to TX & FSU.


Maybe we still have a chance to flip him. We'll see....

Also we're now thinner by one commitment:

quote:

Tre Jackson ?@CB_EJ3 13m13 minutes ago

Would like to humbly announce I will not be attending South Carolina. To me and my families privacy no interviews until after my decision


3* WR/DB commitment out of Baton Rouge LA. Kid had originally committed to Muschamp & Roper when they were still at UF - they were the first ones to offer him - then de-committed when they got fired, and then committed to us last summer.

I thought the hiring of Muschamp and Roper would be a match made in heaven, but apparently things started cooling for some reason. He's now looking more likely to end up at Tulane and stay closer to home. I don't know if our staff encouraged him to look elsewhere, or if distance from family became a factor, or what....

If we get Simpson, I will go buy adult diapers and shite my pants. I don't think we have a chance. The guy won't even travel to Columbia.

Not so much Simpson, more likely some combo of Davis, Wims and/or Bruce.

Are you already banking on Kiel Pollard or do you think those guys are better IYO?

Pollard could be in that group as well. We'll see what Bruce does today and then go from there.

I would kill for WR Bruce, Pollard and Wims and RB Crawford. That would be awesome.

I keep forgetting about Wims. I talked to one of the WR's currently on the team today, and he said the guy is huge. I am assuming Wims is who he was referring to.

Another de-commitment, and one that was talked about happening for a while:

Reports were that Morris wasn't getting any feedback from the new coaching staff. Looks like he's moving on.....
