      My goodness. I really thought he would stick around and be the hometown hero. If he does choose to go, it's probably a good thing we've got Bridgewater in the fold.

          Obviously anything is possible, but from what i've heard it's pretty much LSU right now as I think if I read right that he dropped FSU from his list.

          Jernigan dropped UF from his final schools, will decide from FSU LSU or Tenn tomm. Prolly FSU bound

            Congrats man. You called it earlier.

            I think ever since Meyer left, he did a turnaround and looked hard at Knoxville. Some still thought he would be a Gator, but I guess not.

            Tomorrow should be a fun day even though Florida might not have the biggest close in recent years. Not expected with first year coach and staff on the job. You never know though!

              Florida has nothing to worry about this recruiting year, they have a load of stockpiled talent.

                Florida isn't going to be ranked super high this year mainly due to the fact they aren't bringing in that many 'cruits. Throw in the staff turnover and it won't get a lot of love from recruiting services. I just want to see quality in the guys they do get. Last couple of years have put plenty of talent already in place.

                  I've heard Smith won't announce till Friday, which would give Strong one more shot on Thursday to get Smith to be a Cardinal.

                  The commitment of Bridgwater combined with Smith not getting into Louisville in January has lead to this consideration of UCF from what I've heard. I don't see how UCF is a better situation since they had a freshman QB start for them this past season. I really hope Smith stays with the Cards but if he's afraid of the competition with Bridgewater then I guess it wouldn't be the biggest loss.
                  I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

                      Sounds like you're right about Rasco.

                        I don't know exactly how it went down, but if Brent really wants to go to Auburn, and Brent has earned a full scholarship to attend school there it's pretty sad of his parents to not allow him to there.

                        Barners should just keep quiet about fathers doing questionable things during the recruitment of their sons. No one is sadder than Cecil. Let's not forget Frazier's dad acting as a source to get the farmhouse faithful in a tizzy.


                        Also, I don't know what in the world would make Auburn "feel good" about getting Cyrus, but since when did it take anything other than lip service for AA to start thinking virtual lock?

                          If there is one player that is verbal to FSU that is 110% not going anywhere besides Karlos Williams, It's James Wilder Jr. keep dreaming.

                            el. Oh. El. How dare an Auburn fan think they have a shot at Cyrus. That's good stuff.

                            I also missed my Cyrus is a lock for AU post. But I'm sure it's in here somewhere. But it's all good homie. We can't hope to beat out Bama for a high profile recruit. Never happens.

                              Most of AU's targets are committing in the AM so at least the suspense will be over early. I think Cyrus is announcing at 11.
