Stingley’s top 3 in order is LSU,Florida & Texas. But Don’t be surprised if he chooses Florida.

Just about everyone will be surprised if it is anyone other than LSU.

He really likes Florida and at one point they were his top school.

The worst time of the year begins in five days – the month-long NCAA dead period.

Dust off your best jokes and Longhorn/fishing stories. This is the worst part of the desert we're now in. Dave Campbell's should be enough to get you through a week. Maybe. lol

He really likes Texas too. But this has been LSU’s to lose for a very long time. If it’s going to be someone else it probably takes a huge meltdown in Baton Rouge for him to end up elsewhere. 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

It’s LSU for Stingley Jr. as we’ve expected all along.

Since we are headed for the dead period... @Daniel Seahorn

With 10 recruits verbally committed, (STAFF) Who would you add to the calculator moving forward from highest percentage of landing to lowest?

 

[Texas2725]

Posters on IT saying Leal has now stated Bama and Litville are even.  Kinda hilarious considering how the Ag Mod mouthpieces stated with certainty that Leal was 100% committed after the Bama visit.  Idiots.

Some names that are trending in the right direction: Marques Caldwell, Chris Adimora, Javonne Shepherd, Jalen Catalon, Dylan Wright (but have to watch A&M). The big development of the bunch obviously being Shepherd as of late with him making multiple trips to Austin giving off some good vibes to those who observed him at the Heat Wave event. I think David Gbenda could also fall in this group, but the staff seems to be in a bit of a holding pattern with him. 

On the other side of the coin, the main uncommitted prospect I’m a little worried about right now is Noah Cain. Georgia is making a push and LSU may lose one of their primary targets in John Emery Jr. to Mississippi State and that could really muddy the waters in that recruitment. I’ll also say that my confidence is very low on Texas pulling a rabbit out of their hat for committed guys like Branson Bragg and Garrett Wilson. My confidence is a little higher for DeMarvin Leal, but I’ll need to see him back on campus this fall to feel any better about him as things sit today.

Daniel, not trying to put you to work but, it would be good to have a list of targets, per position, to kind of study during the month of desert wandering we're about to embark on.

In other news, I spoke with a buddy today in Austin. He says that the Leal recruitment has turned, Bama leads and he expects Leal to flip to them in the next few weeks. Says its a three-horse race but UT is in third right now.

He echoed your sentiments on Cain re Georgia. Theres more going on there than the public will ever know about.

There's a considerable counter-push going on right now with regard to Caldwell. They won't let him go quietly.

IMO, Bragg is flippable. Wilson is not.

 A lot of talk now that Gawja is handing out a lot of party favors with their offers.

We will work on getting a list together. Need to sift through the names and try to whittle it down to th legimate targets the staff are actively after.

Gawja is dirty and has the moneybags flowing.  Remember not to long ago when Colin Cowherd said a source told him that one SEC school is ramping it up cheating wise with recruiting, but not yet to Ole Miss level??  Yeah, that'd be Georgia.

If Leal flips to Bama' that'd help with the Hawaiian DT.  Not sure if Leal would stick, but then we are entering multiple decommits which isn't something I'm a big fan of as those type of players usually wash out.  Why I'm perfectly fine with aggy taking guys like Wolfe (who I think is overrated).  

Just remember, it's been mentioned several times over the months the staff is staying clear from several high rated recruits due to off-field issues and we'll be better off in the long run doing this.

This will be a solid class, the DL might not look flashy at the moment, but guys like Mowery and Stripling have showed pretty much no interest with us from day 1.  NaNa had the catholic thing working against us.  We are already in a good spot with a lot of the top 2020 guys and a good season gets most of those guys.  I'm talking guys like Evans, Demas, Lindberg, C. Thompson, ect.

Thats what I've heard, too. I hear there is actually a scale, based on activity, athlete, etc.

SEC is definitely the best conference in one thing.

From another board . . . BamaOnline insider Hank South says both Jeffery Carter and Noa Pola-Gates are on 'commit watch'. Both are in Tuscaloosa for Alabama's 'Champions Cookout'.

Looks like Bama might be making up for the off year (6th) in 2018.  :huh:

Do they get F150s or gold trans ams?

I love Pola-Gates. F’ing stud.

That would be awesome and greatly appreciated.
