He didn't have an offer from Alabama.

Man, why you gotta be ruining people's good time? It's great to say "X player chose Auburn over Alabama." I hear it's a big confidence booster and much better than say "X player chose Auburn over Arkansas State."

While this was certainly true last year (I was generally the one pointing it out), even if Carter was lying about having an Alabama offer I doubt he was lying about Clemson, LSU, and Ole Miss as well.

Not exactly USC, Florida, and Texas, but certainly not our lists of Southern Alabama, Wake Forest, and Miami (OH) last year.

The Alabama Rivals guy should also work on writing complete sentences. Just because Alabama is the school of Forest Gump doesn't mean that its representatives need to act like a bunch of gumps.

He resisted committing early, instead waiting until mid-July to make his decision.

It's crazy how early players commit nowadays.

If Dunkley didn't dominate at FNL I think James would be a Gator right now.

Either way, we get a great receiver. He reminds me a lot of Santonio Holmes based on measurables, I didn't watch his film because I considered him a longshot.

Florida State picks up commitment #12 from 3* (will jump to 4* by the end of the process) LB Telvin Smith from Valdosta, GA. He chose FSU over offers from LSU, Georgia, Ole Miss, Auburn, and various others.

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

I gotta say, Doug Marrone is doing a pretty good job right now of Recruiting at Syracuse. According to Scout, Syracuse has the 56th best class right now, which is not too shabby considering what he walked into. This Class includes 3- 3 star players but most importantly he is Recruiting NYS again. Hopefully SU can finish this class of strong, get more than 3 wins this season, and keep up the momentum.

Marrone is also trying to get a NYS All-Star game pitting Upstate Vs Downstate at the Carrier DOme, that would be huge for NYS recruiting.

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

I'd take that bet......

I've seen some rumors LaMarcus Joyner could be committing to FSU this weekend at Seminole Showcase.

And Seminole Showcase opens up with a commitment from Byrnes (SC) DE Corey Miller....only a matter of time before Marcus Lattimore and Brandon Willis fall in line with this. Jimbo Fisher has built a tremendous relationship with the Byrnes coaching staff which will pay off big time down the road.

So is Lattimore messing around when he lists his final five (which doesn't include Florida State) and says his list won't be changing again?

I hope not.

Nice to see he still has love for AU. If we can get him on campus late I think we have a good shot. He seems to give rave reviews after his visits to Auburn. I think the fact that we are also recruiting Seastrunk and Dyer hard kind of dissuades him from Auburn.


I wouldn't bet against SC, though, especially after what they did with Eric Mack.

Marcus Lattimore did not eliminate Florida State. He will commit to Florida St and take the best WR and QB of all time with him.

And imperialist Florida will lose to Charleston and Troy.

Reasoning for FSU being left out.

"With FSU, I just didn't get a vibe with the players. I also think my college career would be in jeopardy with the probation thing."
