Fast Starters In 2014

  • http://247sports.com/Article/Fast-Starters-On-The-Recruiting-Trail-In-2014-116139

    Texas, Texas A&M, Florida State, Ohio State & Clemson have come out of the gate quickly in the class-of-2014. 247Sports takes a look at how they've done it.

  • No surprise that the two schools in Texas are off to a fast start. In many ways, that state started the early commitment trend.

  • Texas will lose some key guys after they lay some eggs this year on the field. Just like they did this past recruiting cycle.

  • FSU got some ballers. I'd take all of them except for JoJo and Worton. Worton sucks and we'll do better than JoJo. Valentine is already better than Christmas but you can never have enough DTs.

    Yearby, Jackson, Purifoy are all ballers. So are Ware, Thorton and Daub, who they sit pretty with but will still have to battle for.

    Gotta give credit where credit is due.

    True. They do have some ballers. I think Christmas gets a bit of a bad rep. People are too hard on defensive tackles IMO.

    Maybe so. I watched him on that game they aired on national tv. He definitely looks the part but didn't impact the game. I think he's a great prospect. Just think more highly of Valentine.

    Personally, I'd rank them:

    Clark
    Valentine
    Christmas
    Moten

    CeCe Jefferson is gonna be better than them all, though.

  • JC, why is UGA not listed in the 2014 class rankings with more and better commitments than most on the list? Just curious

    Our 2014 team rankings have a bug that they are fixing. If you are talking about the list in this, Steve just gave the others the edge.

  • Yeah I was talking about the team rankings, not this list specifically. Just saw this article and thought I'd check the team ranks when I noticed that.

    I like JoJo

    Worton is a puzzling take this early, makes no sense to me

    Read on my homeboard that JoJo is visiting this weekend and claiming a top three of UF, LSU & Jorja. Guy didn't provide a link so no clue where he got the info. Thought it was weird.

    And I wasn't calling JoJo garbage. I like him too. Just not worried about our secondary recruiting with Muschamp at the helm. We'll land a kid with equal or greater value.

    And Worton has some sort of connection to Dawsey.

    He won't stick with FSU, most sites have pretty much backed this up

    He was a Coley kid

    Rumor has it Marshall's parents didn't like the tOSU commitment and he's no lock either.

  • Clemson always gets off to a fast start because they pressure recruits to commit early.

    Just so you know he caught MSU's beatdown first hand last night. Not saying he's going to de-commit but he accepted a junior day game invitation 3 days after commiting?

    WAIT!!! you saying that MSU is going after a committed player? Oh the horror!!

    O_O Can't be.... No kid from Michigan would accept that ticket to see the instate schools first match-up with both in the top 10. And you know this is football, we're talking about right......

  • FSU may add likely top 50 recruit Kentavious Street in the next month it seems.
