re: ***Drayton Calhoun ATH from Georgia commits to LSU***

He's apparently an early enrollee too.

Understand that UGA has already told you that they want you and have a slot for you by offering you a scholarship.

Also understand that there are dozens of players out there with as much talent and potential as you, so the spot may not be there in june. UGA only has 13 spots to fill. Drop the attitiude and make a good decission.

"Quarterback, let Calhoun have that ball!"

this is going to be an incredible class

lynx= a derby....and by a derby I mean a retard

I thought Drayton was an FSU lock. What gives?





(Sorry. Couldn't resist)

they're less likely to decommit

he said it's a "done deal", had the family with him on his visit, wants to focus on track. doesn't sound like decommitting will be an issue with him since he already has the other big offers, he had nothing to wait for.

Tucker’s Calhoun to visit LSU

Fresh off junior day visits to Alabama, Florida and Georgia, Tucker running back/athlete Drayton Calhoun travels to Baton Rouge this weekend to visit LSU.

“I’m really just trying to go out there and see what it’s like,” said Calhoun, who is being recruited primarily as a defensive back. “It’ll be a good experience.”

The 6-foot-1, 175-pound junior has scholarship offers from Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi State, N.C. State, Stanford and Vanderbilt.

Calhoun is focusing his attention on six programs.

“Right now, my top five are LSU, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Auburn,” he said. “And you can add Clemson to that list.”

Calhoun said he will commit in early May or late June. He is fully aware that two of his favorites will have small recruiting classes in 2009, including Georgia which will sign only 13 or 14 players next February.

“That concerns me,” Calhoun said. “But I’m just still not really trying to push it. If Georgia really wants me, they should have a spot there for me. But it does concern me.

“The only other school that I heard will have a small class is Alabama.”

this guy already had offer from georgia, florida (went to their junior day a couple weeks ago), alabama, pretty much everyone, and yet he still committed to LSU. I would say its safe to say he will stay committed unless something strange happens. If georgia hadnt offered yet then I would be concerned.
