How did Tech coach Paul Johnson take the news? "He basically said, 'If you're looking, then we're looking,'"

What an asshat

Seriously it's fricking Georgia Tech

This is great news because it may mean the two are a package deal. It might be a case where Jaquay was told if he stays solid, AU would offer Adams. Pretty ballsy move if Adams to come for a visit knowing that he could lose his offer.

fwiw, JaQuay may not be coming on an unofficial....

My bad, I can't find any confirmation of this. Could happen, but not just yet.

We have a very good class that gives quality depth. Very solid to very good in my very humble opinion.

I still feel like we need to fill a couple more holes for this class to be good.

Hang on to our WRs. Would love to have Diggs added here.
Need more quality depth on the DL (especially DT, Williams? Goldman?).
1 more quality LB (Alexander? Brown?).
1 more quality S (sounds like Jordan Moore took this spot). Not sure if any of the current CB commits will end up moving to S. Holsey won't. JJ won't. TJ Davis?

but it is not a total shite class.

I definitely don't think it is.

I'm just looking a couple years down the road and what positions will need to have experienced underclassmen step up. We will need to plug in players to compete for championships instead of relying on FR to fill voids left by upperclassmen (ex: Whitaker, Wright, Carter, Blackson this year).

Example, a JR on the DL could have a monster year and end up going early. Missing a player that could be a SO to replace him in the rotation and instead try to sub in a TFR from next years class will spell trouble.

Friday night before National Signing Day- here are my predictions for the uncommitted in the Top247. Justin Hopkins and some of my other fellow writers are going to chime in with their take on some guys as well and you all are free to give your $0.02 here in the thread. I will probably do one of these every couple of days and then a final one the night before National Signing Day

Dorial Green-Beckham- Arkansas- 55 % (think the Razorbacks are in good shape, but watch out for Missouri (he's there now) and you can't count Texas or Oklahoma out)
Arik Armstead- Oregon 70 % (don't count out Notre Dame, Auburn or the field, though)
Stefon Diggs- Ohio State 51 % (still has visits to take, announcing later)
Kyle Murphy- Stanford 80 % (was told the Cardinal are in great shape- great OL class)
Eddie Goldman- Florida State 60 % (Noles are in good shape)
Ronald Darby- Auburn 50.1 % (Both Florida State and Auburn feel good)
Darius Hamilton- Rutgers 51 % (Florida could easily land him, though- who knows with Schiano thing)
Nelson Agholor- USC 53 % (Trojans have been trending here, but it could change with the visit)
Josh Harvey-Clemons- UGA 51 % (Florida and FSU also feel good)
Devin Fuller- Rutgers 52 % (Still think he stays close to home but Big Red and Arizona are pushing)
Tracy Howard- Florida 60 % (Miami is a sleeper here)
Thomas Johnson- Texas A&M 51 % (Oregon and TCU also are in it, but we think Aggies)
Leonard Williams- USC 55 % (Could be a
Davonte Neal- Ohio State 51 % (after National Signing Day- could be anywhere- Buckeyes in the end?)
Andrus Peat- Nebraska 55 % (watch out for USC, though)
Jordan Diamond- Michigan 65 % (Wolverines have been trending here and nail one of their big OL targets)
Aziz Shittu- Stanford 90 % (May have been different had Tosh Lupoi not left Cal)
Armani Reeves- Ohio State 50.1 % (Seriously torn between the Buckeyes and Wolverines. I think his friendship with Camren Williams may put OSU over the top, but why hasn't he just ended it if that's the deciding factor?)
Jeremy Liggins- Ole Miss 95 % (announcing in Oxford on the town square- would take guts to pick Mississippi State or other)
Kwon Alexander- Auburn 65 % (just can't see him going anywhere else- maybe I will be surprised)
Zach Banner- USC 70 % (Trojans have felt good about this one for a while)
Wayne Morgan- Syracuse 75 % (Orange will top Connecticut for the best in NYC in this class)
Raymond Ford- Utah 50.1 % (sort of a mystery where he ends up- dwindling options)
Jamal Marcus- Ohio State 55 % (not 100 percent sure about this one in terms of where he stands with some of the schools)
Joel Caleb- Virginia Tech 70 % (Hokies have been in great shape for the last month or so- WVU made a run)
Jaydon Mickens- Oklahoma State 55 % (Give the edge to the Pokes here because of his visit and their offense)
Korren Kirven- Tennessee 55 % (Vols are trending- he's supposed to be in Blacksburg this weekend, though)
Ken Ekanem- Virginia Tech 90 % (I would be stunned if he did not pick the Hokies)
D.J. Reader- Clemson 52 % (Tigers vs. Tar Heels)
Ricardo Louis- Auburn 95 % (The only reason it's not higher is he's gone back and forth before)
Kyle Dodson- Ohio State 55% (In the end, he stays at home, IMHO)
Quinshad Davis- Tennessee 55 % (I think the Vols nail it down this weekend, but don't count Wake Forest out)

Diggs to OSU?

UF fans wouldn't be happy about that...
