------They should be, the kid basically said he is going to commit there once he returns with his mom, but in the meantime he'll visit ND and Georgia. Urban must've gave him a car or something.

Even if Wells is as gung-ho about the Gators as Gator Land seems to believe he is, does Wells fit the criteria to be one of Urban's Sacred 18 for 2008. Maybe in January, I don't know about July.

In one of the biggest continuing shams in NCAA recruiting history, Urbie is now up to close to 150 offers with 1 recruit deemed suitable for his holiness's class. Yet, Meyer's blatant manipulation of the system is only mild fodder for the message boards, and is not even mentioned by the Scouts and Rivals of the world, or any of the editors of the individual team sites on either board. I guess they are all afraid of the Cockwad.

Yeah, should be interesting to see what happens when Wells tries to commit.

Wells preps for visits

Fresh off a visit to Florida, Gainesville defensive end Keith Wells is packing his bags in anticipation of one-day camps at Notre Dame and Ohio State this weekend.

Two years ago, Wells was playing basketball in Cornelia for Habersham Central. Following a transfer to Gainesville at the start of his junior season, he is suddenly rated as one of the nation’s top defensive end prospects.

“Keith had played basketball all of his life and I think suddenly his desire has changed,” Gainesville coach Bruce Miller said.

The 6-foot-5, 207-pound Wells, who played both football and basketball at Gainesville last season, is suddenly on everyone’s radar.

Florida, Florida State, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Ohio State and Tennessee headline his list of offers.

Following additional development, Miller is confident Wells will evolve into a special player on the college level.

“I think they’re getting a project,” he said. “He only started six games for us last year. He looks the part and runs extremely well for his size. I think his best football is ahead of him.”

"Notre Dame, they've turned up the recruiting on me," Wells said. "They've been texting me, making sure everything is good with me and that they've been thinking about me. They can't wait to get me up on campus."

-------We'll see how much the staff wants him after this weekend.

I have a hard time determining if he is sincere, or if this is simple positioning.
