Feel confident on Cam'ron Jackson and Jacobian Guillory joining Jaquelin Roy. Still hard after McKinley Jackson, too. Will be an LSU-Bama fight for him.

Do you know anything about McKinley Jackson’s recruitment? TIA

He likes LSU a lot and has a great relationship with O, BUT he's got some people around him that are Bama handlers. So we have to find a way to counter that. He was committed once, and the convinced him to decommit and "enjoy the process".

I hope McKinley sticks with us. He is a monster. If we get him and Zachary Evans, HOLY CRAP.

What about Branard Wright(#6 DT nationally) from Dallas Carter? He seems to favor LSU from everything I've heard!!??

Sort of the same situation as Jackson from what I've heard.

Vol, what are your thoughts on Dwight Mclothern, Elias Ricks, and Zach Evans? Those along with Jackson seem to be the biggest names we are on in the 2020 class. I’m feeling confident about Evans, have you heard anything about these guys?

Always love and appreciate the updates Vol.

Are we making any progress with any other DL for this class? I know we have Joseph and are pushing for Ishmael. Just wondering if we have any other guys on the radar.

Same question for OL for 2019.

TIA!!

Our DL class 2020 could be epic.

Ricks is a Cali kid, so good luck. DM seems to be between A&M and Bama, but we aren't out of it by any means. And Evans is getting the full court press. I fully expect him to be a signing day decision guy, and it coming down to us and A&M. I think Bama landing Trey Sanders and Wandale Robinson with them also still supposedly getting Crouch in on an OV this Fall, that their depth chart may shy him away.

Appreciate the info! If we only landed Evans out of those guys I won’t be complaining. He’s a generational type player.

Of the 3, we definitely have the best shot with Evans.

DT for this class will likely be the Sopshers. Next year is a way better DL class, and we are in on all the ones we want. OL is still Shepherd, Dobbs, Parker. Parker gets in if he keeps his grades right, and we will take either of the other two if they want in, with Dobbs being our preferred.

I will also add that one name to watch for DE is Justin Harris out of JUCO. He was a guy we reall liked a couple years back, but ran out of room late, and he ended up at Baylor. He's now back on the market and will be visiting soon.

He's the OT out of Texas that we and A&M are trying to flip from Texas. He's expressed interest, and we are currently trying to nail down a visit. Still think A&M has the better shot since they are in state, but if we comes for a visit I wouldn't count us out.

Why does anyone have any confidence in Dobbs? Is he even scheduled to visit?

Oh okay, that's kind of who I thought you were talking about, but I knew he had committed to Texas, so I didn't know that he is still looking at us. He's a really good tackle and wouldn't mind having him aboard. Thanks for the information as always.

Thanks for the info. I really hope we can make inroads with McKinley Jackson. He's incredible.

Need to get him feeling like this again.

I dont think he has anything scheduled yet, but he still wants to try to visit. I don't know that anyone is confident we land him, but he's maintaining contact and wants to come on an OV, so as long as that door is open we are giving it our best shot.
