I'm pretty sure the camp starts on Monday. The 7 on 7 stuff is going on right now though

But to answer your question, I can see a number of commits coming our way: Ronald Martin, Floyd Raven, and David Jenkins to close our CB recruiting. Even though he won't be camping, Ely should be committing soon

Justin williams LB from Valdosta UGA is another.... not sure how I would feel about it though.

He must have a good showing for us to accept his commitment though.... offer is in hand

I don't know that we have any completely unheard of prospects, who've received baffling commitable offers, that won't ever make it to campus and sink into oblivion this year.

Our only competition for him seems to be Notre Dame and they have yet to offer him

Ronald Martin will need to earn an offer at camp first. Same with Raven but I think he will. Might hold out on Martin.

you must think David Jenkins is a done deal. do you think he is the best of the thee?

I believe LSU will only take 2 of the 3 thus leaving a spot for Beckham and one for a star (lyons quality). Jenkins first, raven second, r. martin only if he clearly outshines raven.

I am pretty confident with Jenkins but a full court press by Texas would worry me some. However, they have a bunch of CBs in this class already. I think he is the best of the 3 but Raven is turning heads right now as well.

Ronnie Martin would be the next guy I would want at CB because of his speed and Raven could be moved to S easily IMO.

Odell will strictly be recruited at WR if we want him and that would be just fine with me.

I think all 3 (Martin, Jenkins, Raven) are takes. Lyons would be a take as well, and you could move Raven to safety if need be. Beckham I think is all Miami right now after they recruited him from the start strictly at wide receiver. It may be hard for us to convince him that we won't move him to CB once he commits to us

Ronnie Martin is a take but Ronald doesn't have an offer yet so we will likely evaluate him more and see where the OOS prospects shake out before extending an offer. He only holds offers from Memphis and Tulane at this time so we can hold out.

Odell is talking up Miami a lot but I wouldn't count LSU out given his friends committed to LSU and he hasn't pulled the trigger to Miami yet. LSU has recruited him as a WR throughout his recruitment. The staff knows where he wants to play.

espn had an article a couple of days ago saying miami led for benjamin and was in a tie for lead with clemson for watkins.
if so, they don't have room for bekham and run the risk of him decommitting.
