As of now we are set to host 3 official visitors this week, KJ Henry, Savion Smith, and Jarrett Jackson.
Henry is very long shot, he is likely headed to Clemson or VT. We are recruiting him for the Buck position, staff is trying to sell him on early pt and the fact he would be a marquee pass rusher on the team from the moment he steps on the field for us.
Savion Smith is another long shot as it is believed he is a big Bama lean, however he has a great relationship with TRob. He will have 2 to play 2 i believe maybe 3 to play 2 not sure on that. We are telling him he could come in and possible take over for Jamarcus King next year. Also, of note his buddy Sam Bruce will be attending with him, we have no intentions of offering Bruce again at this poing. IF you remember he was a big time target for the staff a few years ago, but ultimately signed with Miami.
Jarrett Jackson is the most likely of these guys to come, he is currently committed to Louisville. He is a SoFl kid so the staffs connecion down there is playing in our favor. He is a solid DE and i believe if he and Gerald(JUCO DE and possible flip from UT) both wanted to committ that the staff would take Jackson over the Carolina son, due to being a high school player.
I will post the final list of guys coming in as the week progresses and the list becomes more clear and is finalized on Friday night.

Sam Bruce is an absolute moron. I really hope we don’t let him around our program.
Anyone know how many spots we have left on the D-Line?

2 according to what they are saying on TBS, likely a buck and 1 more de.

So likely Jarrett Jackson

Hopefully, last Louisville flip has turned out well for us, TJ Brunson.
Remaining Major Targets
Jarrett Jackson
Channing Tindall
Jaycee Horn
Dylan Wonnum
Dorian Gerald
Savion Smith
Dax Hollifield
of those targets all but Savion and Dax are legitimate gets.
Rumor is Jesus Gibbs one of our OL committs may be flipping to VaTech, he is from Virginia so it isnt out of the realm of possibilities.

What about Sandidge? Still feeling good about him?
Posted on 11/8/17 at 11:47 am to UpstateCock2007
I knew I forgot about someone...yea I forget he isn't already committed

With Jones out at UTk, who do you think we will land from their commits and those choosing between us and the Vols?
The only one I know of is J. Horn who declined to comment about the news that came out today. Any chance we flip him?

Good chance I think. Dorian Gerald opened things back up.
Posted on 11/12/17 at 6:59 pm to GameCocky88
I know this isn’t a big deal because of his position but does anybody know what Paxton Brooks, the kicker from W Cola, is planning on doing?
Posted on 11/12/17 at 7:12 pm to big6ben9
Brooks is committed to Tennessee now, but he may back on the market.

USC apparently only has 4 scholarship slots left as it is, unless someone committed de-commits, or we have player attrition on the team. We already have 6-7 quality prospects that have us in the lead or one of their leaders, and have to figure out who from that group will ultimately be part of the class.
Now that there may be 2-3 others that were committed to UT, that may start reconsidering us, only makes the stretch run to NSD more cloudy.
The good thing is, unless we miss out on all of them, whoever we ultimately get will be huge additions to our class, and boost it into the final top 25 IMO.....

Jayce Horn
Jarrett Jackson
Rick Sandidge
Dorian Gerald
Dylan Wonnum
Gibbs is most likely going to flip, leaving us with 5 spots for these guys. Would be huge to pull all 5.

Speaking of recruiting...this is encouraging:
ETA: The comments were interesting. Several taters losing their shite bc of Henry tweeting this.

We'd have to include Tindall as a top target, no? Or does it appear he's going to go with UGA?
Posted on 11/14/17 at 7:56 am to BamaBully
247 said this morning that after his visit here for the UF game, that the staff feels more confident in keeping Gibbs. They also said that they are less confident in flipping Gerald. The rest of your list we have a legit shot at landing

Yeah this. I want Tindall and Sandidge the most. Need these top flight players to really get the defense Muschamp is known for started.

Buddy at Spring Valley said its a dog fight and he has no finger on how Tindall is feeling....he is the same on who told me to watch out for UGA weeks ago and people said I was crazy...
