Everyone is reporting that Collins is ours to lose, just if we could recruit his girlfriend!

If we land Collins does that finish the class?

Eh, tough to say, it would def. propel us to a higher ranking! If Montgomery leaves for the NFL then were short on DEs and I dont think that we have landed any big name ones

I think Granier greyshirts at worst.

Those four sound good, but I'm going to say we snag a top-tier WR following the commitment of Kiel

I didn't think we gave Moore an offer?

When does Phillips announce?

Why do you think we are going to lose Granier? What have you heard?

Moore as of now doesn't have an offer. Watching him play though, I just feel (hope) he is a take.

I think Phillips' flirtation is over with the UH HC now at TAMU. I expect Hill to enroll in early January, Landon will come at the UA AA Bowl, and Phillips will be in soon after.

Granier does not project as well as Debo, Lamar Louis, or Feist.

As for bigtime receivers, I have a feeling Avery is going to be a good one, and Dural is already a stud.

We're in great shape!.

Mississippi State is hard after this kid. Has LSU offered him?

Moore doesn't have an LSU offer now. I just think he's the kind of talent we need to offer. If he's a Grinder, they're getting a good one.

Miles has taught me to trust the staff when it comes to recruiting. I support this staff, but Moore is a guy we can't let out of the fence. On signing day, we need to find that young man a scholarship.

This is my projection as well. There is also a CB out of Florida. His name slips me right now. He is the #3 corner. Supposedly is coming for a visit in January

Hill
Collins
Phillips
A DL but don't know who
Candidates are at this point with the biggest rush in recruiting coming in mid to late January
Mario Edwards-we'll push but I think he's going to Texas
Channing Ward-he says he already knows where he's going and I'm pretty confident it's not us. Auburn or 1 of the MS schools
Javonte Magee-Don't know if we'll push or not. I hope we do and like our chances if so.
A sleeper to keep an eye on but will not come until the last few days before signing day or on signing day if things breakdown this way.
Jacoby Briscoe- The staff keeps in touch with him but want one of the other guys and will go after them 1st. 2 reasons for that are that those kids are better and more consistent and the fact that they could offer Briscoe at the last minute and he'd sign. Once his late sr. Film hits you'll know why he could get an offer. He was a monster in the playoffs and showed why our coaches were so high on him last year at this time. He's got a tremendous amount of talent but lacks motivation or motor ot whatever you want to call it. He takes too many plays or games off but when he's going,he's a legit SEC DT.

Realistic finish is Hill (if so, we might lose Bourque), Collins, Phillips and maybe another d-lineman. The 5-star CB scheduled for a January visit is Tracy Howard. Also, I believe Edwards has scheduled an official visit in January.

I think Edwards will stay a Nole in the end. His dad played there, too much in FSU's favor.

Ward is a Grinder. Family decision, plus location is HUGE to Ward. he's going to be a stud.

Magee - Heard his coach is pushing Baylor hard. He'd be a quality add, but I doubt it.

Briscoe - I haven't seen him play. If he's got a high ceiling, I have no doubt Brick and Chief can be "encouraging." I still question low-motor guys, Miles and Saban process those guys with a quickness.

Even if Bourque wanted to, I think he has too many ties to LA and LSU to decommit. He just had a kid, and that invariably leads to pressure to remain close to home. I can't see Davante' leaving. Hill and Bourque are both very quality backs.
