Really curious to see who Oklahoma caps off their class with. I think Zabie is a take. Also think they'll take Taquon Graham. Looks like they're looking to take one more DB. Marvin Wilson is a pipe dream imo. Looks like this Austin Failou kid might be a consolation prize. Underrated kid imo.

Antjuan Simmons, Pioneer, Outside Linebacker

Congrats to Michigan State for getting the commit from 4-star OLB/RB Antjuan Simmons out of Ann Arbor Pioneer High School. Ann Arbor Pioneer High is located across the street from the Big House, and is the high school attended by the Harbaugh brothers.

Simmons had previously been committed to Ohio State but decommitted from the Buckeyes in November. Notre Dame was thought to be the favorite to land Simmons, but Sparty prevailed.

Minnesota's PJ Fleck flipped Oregon Ducks CB commit Demetrius Douglas out of Portland, OR.
Douglas also held offers from Oregon State and Notre Dame.

Congrats to the Golden Gophers.

Oregon went cold on him. Too many talented DBs that they're in on, not enough room

Demetrius Douglas shunning Notre Dame for Minnesota is eye-opening. The Irish currently do not have any CB commits this class... Brian Kelly offered Demetrius Douglas a schollie Jan 11th, and set an in-home visit with Demetrius & family for today Sunday Jan 15.

Well..... one day after Demetrius receives the Notre Dame offer, PJ Fleck flies to Oregon for an in-home visit with Demetrius & family on Jan 12th.... two days later Demetrius Douglas commits to Minnesota on Sat Jan 14th, and Douglas apparently cancels the Notre Dame in-home visit set for today, Sunday Jan 15.

Fleck may be a bit flaky/weird, but he is a hella recruiter. I'm interested in how he performs on the B1G recruiting trail over the next few years.

LSU ain't getting Phillips. Bet on that. He's been texting and tweeting guys recruiting for Oklahoma.

Smoke doesn't seem to be coming from Phillips camp. Lots of hoping by the LSU side imo. Seems like someone around him is pushing him to at least give LSU a look, and he's trying to appease them.

Lol. 10 days after picking Oregon State over Nebraska at All-American game.

Zabie is an odd one. Total bust or boom guy. He is visiting Texas this weekend. Kid has barely played football. He has the measureables to play in the NFL, but he is as raw as they come

He's definitely a project. Crystal balls are pointing towards Texas.

He gone to Brasky @Brasky

Will be interesting to see what happens with this kid with his indecision. I know onto some other Wide receivers right now too.
