They are projections and many of their employees give predictions. Saying the website has gone to shite because they've missed on some predictions is really ridiculous.

Florida wants him as a WR primarily.

Do you think UF landing Tabor hurts their chances? If he is being recruited as a DB.

Jackson is being told he will get a chance at both both sides of the ball, but will ultimately play his snaps at whichever position is best for the team.

OK, for good or bad, this is the latest I've heard on Adoree' Jackson.

First, USC, Florida and Tennessee visited him in Illinois today and I've heard these are the three programs that stand out the most and have the biggest shot at him - for different reasons.

What I've heard that could play the biggest factor is that Jackson's family is persuading him to stay closer to home and that means Tennessee and Florida might have the best shot at landing him. After three years in Los Angeles, I've heard his parents feel like they've missed out on seeing him play and they could do that if he's much closer in Knoxville or Gainesville.

From what I've heard, LSU is slipping a little bit as signing day gets closer and this person feels the three programs above have the best chance of landing him.

With the family factor already out there, that does not mean USC is not going full force to get him. Steve Sarkisian is very involved with trying to convince Jackson USC is the best place for him and that they would use him all over the field. That is a considerable draw but the family factor is also playing a major role in his recruitment.

No one knows where Jackson is going - not even those closest to him - so if you hear anybody say they know for sure it's just a guess.

After USC, Florida and Tennessee meet with him things might change and I will check back to see how the thinking has evolved. There are concerns at all three schools so nothing is a lock right now.

My gut says FLA but i don't think anyone knows until the ink is dry.

We need him and the track coaches are the tipping point I think. These kids usually know a month ahead of time which school they want to go to..but family and friends can pull on them.

He is going to see the field early and often no matter where he goes...so it plays little in decision...that's why the track program is up there. He is a freak of nature and will be able to play track and football. No matter where he goes I wish him well.

It has gone to shite homer. No doubt about it. They claim to have all third inside info and now you are telling me it's just speculation, WOW. Seems like you answered your own question

Sounds like Family is pushing TN, but AJ is leaning UF with USC being the wild card.

Not at all. It's called predictions for a reason though. Sure, they do their best and they have legit sources but they can be wrong sometimes. I still think the main guys on there are right much of the time. Regardless, it is still BY FAR the best recruiting website and it isn't close.

@TonyBasilio: Jamie Newberg 'I don't know Adoree Jackson. My guys out west swear that UT is lying the weeds for him. He goes to one of 3 SEC schools.'

I agree. He seems really interested in the SEC.

Absolutely not dropping a hint with the order of teams. From what I was told a few days ago Tennessee is still a very major factor in his recruitment. It helps in a major way that his family in Illinois wants him closer to home and that is still weighing into the final decision. I've told Paul this and I'll tell everyone here - anyone who makes a "prediction" on Jackson's college home is absolutely, 100 percent guessing at this point. If I say Tennessee here, I could just as easily go to the Florida board and say Florida there and feel just as confident in my pick. What I've been told is two factors are playing the biggest for him: 1. Relationships with coaches. He's got to trust the guys he's going to play for and that's a huge deal with Jackson, more so than most recruits. If someone comes off as phony, Jackson isn't going to buy it and probably won't go to that school. 2. This might be even bigger. I've been told Jackson's parents are definitely making it clear they'd prefer he be closer to home. This hurts USC some but I'm not sure how much because Sarkisian and his staff are going all out to get him and doing everything possible to convince the parents that he'd be well-treated if he stays in California.

I think it's pretty obvious that his final 3 is SC, UF, UT. Nobody has a damn clue where he is going, and that info didn't really say more than we already knew. Where he takes his last OV will probably tell the story.

IMO that doesn't sound good for UF, mainly cause this is Will 's make or break year. Maybe adoree doesn't want to risk getting a great relationship with the Fla staff only to have them possibly replaced next year. Who knows though. No one knows where this kid is going or who even leads.

I don't understand how people can leave LSU off of his list.

Is UT off of his list now? Everything I am seeing and reading states that it is down to UF, UCLA, and USC. I didn't even now that UCLA was in serious contention.
