Bill Greene ‏@BillBankGreene Corey Smith has decommitted from Mississppi State and has committed to Ohio State.
Big get, IMO. I expect him to come in and play right away.

Sounds like this kid wants to win championships; not rot at Miss St.imex99;1377044 wrote:Steve Helwagen/Bucknuts

Probably. Interesting he was willing to take a pay-cut to do so.sleeper;1377079 wrote:Sounds like this kid wants to win championships; not rot at Miss St.

If we only get 1 more player in the rest of this class, I hope it is Vonn Bell. Sounds like Dontre Wilson may be staying at Oregon. If we get either 1 of those, I'd be happy. But I have a feeling we miss out on both.

FWIW, Mike Farrel has it down to OSU and Tennessee for Bell, giving OSU the slight edge.

Still thinking Bama? Apparently he made it clear he wants early playing time which Saben isn't prepared to guarantee. I haven't really looked into our depth or Tennessee's so I don't know who'd hold the advantage in that regard.Midstate01;1377993 wrote:I just don't see it.

Went into a recruiting blackout either last night or today until national signing day. Actually think Elliot's was yesterday because Vonn Bell's starts after Coach Withers final visit today.Benny The Jet;1378229 wrote:Any updates on Elliot?

I honestly think we get Bell. I'm pretty close to booking it.

Yeah, only thing is Tennessee was his team growing up and helping them rebuild can appeal to his emotions. But if the kid wants to compete for championships along with early playing time then the choice is pretty clear.sleeper;1378286 wrote:I honestly think we get Bell. I'm pretty close to booking it.

Per Vonn Bell coach to Rivals, Bell & Family is very impressed with Everett Withers. He is being sent in today as the Closer.
jbook ‏@jbook37
Per Vonn Bell coach he will commit to a school & call the coaches to inform them of his decision but will be tight lip until he announces.

Has Bell said he's announcing on LOI day? Or is he doing it at another date?

My money would be on Tennessee. Alabama is likely out but never discount urban and co.

If we don't get Vonn Bell (or Dontre Wilson), I'm perfectly fine with James Clark. Just saw his highlight video. Wow! This is some of the best breakaway speed I've seen since Tedd Ginn and Brandon Saine.

Also, regarding James Clark:

James Clark tells @davebiddle that the winter weather in Ohio will not affect his decision. Said if he goes to the NFL he has to play in it.

James Clark tells @davebiddle that he has a great relationship with the staff & Corey Smith commitment will not affect his decision.

Big thing that stands out in the James Clark interview is he mention that Florida is already bringing in 5 WR's already & he looks at depth

Here is a highlight tape of James Clark who told Biddle he runs a legit 4.38. Kid reminds me of a young Santonio Holmeshttp://www.hudl.com/athlete/551318/highlights/32901421 …
