So back to this kid...I know most consider him a longshot at this point but has he stated what he considers important to his recruitment? PT, academics, etc?

Scout: Bama, UF and ND are the leaders. Throws LSU in as the 4th. Says he has no leader. Visiting the top 3 within the next 6 weeks and announcing Aug. 1.

Long, athletic kid like Jaylon Smith and Max Redfield. Interesting that Notre Dame is right in there with Georgia, Florida, Alabama, and the rest of the SEC. Van Gorder visit in April must have made an impression. This will be one of the more important players to attend Irish Invasion, and this will be a recruiting story worth following.

Tell your son to become better friends with him.




Then buy them all beer.

a good ice breaker might be to ask him if he has or is in the process of taking foreign language

Have him go up to him and tell him he's heard he has an offer from ND. Then tell him he would give his left nut to go to ND.

Says that Florida, Bama, and ND are even. WANT!!!!!!!!!!! Calls us the big 3 even though he has a top 5. Florida this weekend, ND June 20th, and Bama in July will still announce on Aug. 1st.

Scratched from II. He's trying to reschedule, and is set to make a decision August 1.

I'd love for him to reschedule after Bama. If he doesn't set foot on campus before August 1, we lose.

Lawrenceville (Ga.) Central Gwinett outside linebacker Adonis Thomas, considered by many to be a Florida lean, is another top target competing. The 6-foot-4, 215-pound prospect is still considering Alabama, Georgia and Notre Dame in addition to the Gators. He will commit to a school on August 1, just weeks after The Opening finishes.

Would really have liked to get the kid up for II, but the show goes on.

Muschamp must be turning up the heat on his recruiting targets. Further evidence that Coney's imminent announcement will be for UF.

Reckon the four commits he lost in the last couple of weeks woke him up? As far as Thomas, he was a kid we wanted at Bama pretty bad. He looks like he could develop in to a good one. Best of luck to him moving forward.

They're alright...that Alozone guy can play all LB positions. And QB too. Offer him the Mustchamp job while at it.

Remember how Anzalone chose Florida because he thought Kelly was leaving ND?
