The Official 2014 Recruiting Thread

Hearing a lot of rumors about Jacob Park, nothing from anyone with any cred, but it's going to be interesting to see if he ends up at VT, UGA, or Bama.

Oregon has stole a verbal away from the Huskies!

4 star JC transfer DT/DE Tui Talia. A 6'5" 265 lber.

Adding depth to an already good d line is a great addition for Oregon.

With Ricky Heimuli and Wade Kilikipi being SRs coming into 2013 this was a huge grab for the Ducks.

I will be smiling on LOI day when the pen hits the paper....

Alabama lock, and Five-Star cornerback Marlon Humphrey earned the defensive skills MVP for the Rivals Challenge.

De'Shawn Hand earned Defensive line MVP.

Damian Mama earned Offensive line MVP. Demetrius Knox was right behind him.

Kyle Allen earned Offensive skills MVP.

Looks like we might be picking up a commit from rivals100 WR Ermon Lane at some point in the future. He was supposedly telling several players at the Five-Star Challenge that he is "likely going to Alabama".

 

[Camfantasy]

I just watched a video of the OL vs DL today, and Damian Prince looked pretty damn good out there, even against Hand.

Prince got worked in every snap I saw of him against Hand. I'd still call him my #1 OLineman in this class though.

Alabama lands 3 star Kicker JK Scott.

He's a damn fine punter, probably the best in class, he'll likely be punter at Alabama. Fucker is 6'5...dayum.

Texas got 3 commits to bring the class of 2015 to 7. Keke Course from Lufkin, a WR in HS probable DB at UT. The others were Center's Johnny Shaw, a safety who switched from TCU and OL Connor Lanfear from Hays.

 

[charlie42s]

Texas got their 15th commit for the 2014 Class, when Marble Falls WR Garrett Gray verbaled on Monday. He's 6'4", 206#, and had 19 TDs, caught 82 passes for 1266 yards as a Junior.

Nick Chubb ... the no. 1 running back out of Georgia makes his decision today - UGa leads, with USCe and Auburn in the running. He is 5'11, 220 and a beast. We already have a 5 star out of south Florida, so this would be a really nice 1-2 punch at running back.

UK is # 4 in Rivals Recruiting Rankings...

No... this is not a typo. Take a minute and let that sink in. Now, before you start with the "facts" about how bad UK is, no one can deny how well Stoops and company are doing getting talent to visit and come aboard. It will be difficult for my Cats to be as bad as they were last season so here's hoping to a season of at least 4 - 5 wins. Suck it!

You don't think they will stay even close to that high do you?

WOW!.....Just heard De'Shawn Hand has eliminated VT and SCAR, and now has a top 3 of Alabama, Florida, and Michigan.

That seems too good to be true right about now, I guess we'll see if it's a troll...lol.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

He named a top three that Virginia Tech was not in. I do t think he has really "eliminated" anyone yet. Still, this is a tough pill to swallow. The top 3 that I heard differs from Fatty Farrell's as well but also does not include Virginia Tech.

Well damn...

What position would be project at Bama? I don't see him as a great fit for a 3-4.

Supposedly, Hand wants to Major in Sports Management, and VT doesn't have that Major. Said one of the hardest things he ever had to do was tell Bud Foster that VT was out.

I believe he will definitely play DE and stand up a little.

Chubb picks UGa. Dawgs now have the no. 1 running backs from Fla and Ga. Now let's get some big uglies to lead the way. Woof!

That was posted on a few UofM Blogs by pretty reliable recruiting guys. I was surprised he either dropped S.C. and Va Tech or put them on the back burner.

Hoke has had some success in that area of the country and with a guy like Greg Mattison as his lead recruiter talking about how he can make him the next Ray Lewis UofM will be a tough opponent for the kid.

If UofM can land Peppers and Hand it would be great for the program. UofM needs a top 3 class right about now!
