| It looks like Hawaii linebacker Isaac Savaiinaea won't end up at Notre Dame, even if Anzalone departs. Savaiinaea is committed to Stanford, but the Irish, Texas A&M and UCLA are all getting looks and Savaiinaea was personally recruited by Manti Te'o, who also attended Punahou High School.
If Savaiinaea decided to follow Te'o from Punahou to South Bend, the comparisons would be inevitable and the talent level of the two is vastly different. There is no way he could live up to the legend of Te'o.
The only thing more impressive that wide receiver LaQuon Treadwell's ability on the field (and he has been playing like a five-star this season) is his consistency when it comes to not taking visits. Treadwell has now set up visits with Missouri, Ole Miss, Michigan and Oklahoma this month alone and won't make any of them.
Pennsylvania linebacker Alex Anzalone is going to become a Florida Gator, I feel very confident about that now. Anzalone, one of the top 50 prospects in the country, remains committed to Notre Dame.
However, after he took a visit to Gainesville for the Gators game against LSU, I think he's pretty much a done deal to play for Will Muschamp. Anzalone had previously committed to Ohio State but de-committed from the Buckeyes after an unofficial visit to Florida.
He then committed to Notre Dame, but took a visit to Gainesville for Friday Night Lights and then took the visit for the LSU game.
Rumor had it that there were two silent defensive commitments to come out of that game, that Anzalone had already filled out enrollment paperwork for Florida and when he cancelled his official visit to Notre Dame for the BYU game this past weekend, that pretty much sold me that this is over. Now, it's only a matter of Anzalone saying it out loud.
The whole thing is a bit crazy, of course, but the Gators were the early favorite for him. His father attended Florida and I think Muschamp and his staff was always going to be in this until the end. The good news is that this will likely be the last commitment for Anzalone. |
