This^^^^ think TBD(S) will be most interesting....Senat (big Byron 2.0) +a UGA &/or Auburn commitment or former commitment are my TBDs (Wiggins, J. Davis, & a number of others contacting us or currently working them).

It is unlikely USC gets a visit from Adams, Foster, and Alexander. If they did, they would be the biggest player with Alexander.

Agree, Taj ain't happening. Foster could end up absolutely anywhere. Logic suggests UGA, AU, or Bama, but he has decommitted from 2 of the 3. You don't want him to commit to your school until the pen & paper come out. He will do something crazy bc, to put it mildly, he is out there.

Stoops & DL coach to UK.

Indeed, Big Byron 2.0...IMO

Seriously though. USCw, Notre Dame. USCw doesn't make an effort to recruit a kid on the other side of the country if it isn't worth their time.

Maybe he wants to be a Navy Seal.

Still I think Rolin's pass defense is out standing and gives him the edge over the other two, also I think that is something we lack a bit out of our linebackers, and have so for quite a while. Rolin was an important piece to the master plan we will just have to find a way to do without.

We didn't clear up the most important thing....after the knee, IMO?, we wouldn't guarantee that he would play LB (Recall, offer originally only committable @TE). He wanted promises we couldn't make following the injury (PT as a true FR w an ACL won't be promised). The staff looks bad, but they did the right thing. UF might not have done a whole lot.

Powell is a stud & would love to have him visit.

3 LBs on the roster currently enrolled and counting on true frosh to play in'13

Lewis, Cooper, Holloman, and Roberts(I think he is on the roster...not sure). Rainey should consider moving over...stud LB in HS w size.

The staff is reaching out to anyone w any interest & we are being contacted as well by a few. Who knows what will happen, but I know we will play football next year.

" They want me and I want them." Very interesting.

Wow. That would be a great pickup, and it would help out if we miss on Bryant.

Bryant is headed to FSU unless something crazy happens.

No doubt it's not much of a secret.

I mean this in a polite and honest way. Did I miss the other boot that you implied was about to drop right after kight's offer got pulled?

Is this Reuben Foster we are discussing? I don't see it happening.

Well, I like him as a LB, and if our coaching staff didn't and that is what turned him away, I'm going to have to say good move UF coaching staff and bad move ours. But, whatever.

Rolin was never the quickest guy. He had good instincts but most of his highlight tape is him running through the line blitzing without being blocked. Bryant was always the gem of the LB class. Rolin didn't really fit our defense very well either. IMO, Yannick would be a better fit for us anyway.
