We are in the top 2-3 schools in the hunt for 2 of the best offensive lineman in the 2017 class! Of course everyone knows Wills! But I just heard Tony Gray of Lawrenceville, GA. has really warmed up to us over his home state school Georgia! If we get them both and they live up to their expectations then the next 5 years we will have an offensive line that is SEC caliber! And with that we should be able to get top QB'S and Running Backs as well! Bottom line get 7 wins anyway we can this year and the atmosphere will change for the better!

Interesting. Georgia has 4 OL committed, two of which are tackles, and they are also in the running for some other big-time tackles.

He was very highly thought of a year ago and was at the top of several team's board. For whatever reason he dropped on UGA's and other teams who recruit the state hard. He had a disappointing Jr. season and hasn't wanted to workout on the camp circuit. UGA isn't recruiting him now, we would like 1 more OL in the class, either Isiah Wilson, not likely, or a JUCO

Suits me. Sounds like another Boom Williams type situation when we are looking in the rear view mirror in a few years.

Wills plus Gray/Munford would be a great haul for the Cats.

Not the same, Boom's was never about performance, he just didn't fit the offense we run. Gray's decline has more to do with his feet and lateral movement.

4-8 and 5-7 is most definitely the most likely scenario this season. No doubt about it. If anyone saw how unprepared our team was last season, and how little of heart they played with, and how terrible the in game coaching overall was. They wouldn't expect a winning season this year.
I love your arbitrary use of punctuation. Very post modern.

Several outlets reporting Bama leads for Wills with UK and Notre Dame being a toss up for second place at the moment. I wouldn't count that chicken before it hatches.

Probably because of what happened with dick wad 2 years ago. No insider is ever going to say uk leads over bama. Hell Bama lead for Elam as well.

I would like to see Wills tell Bama he's going there and string them along. Then commit to UK.

Guy on HOB claims that he is indeed enamored with Bama and has made his choice. Says he knows him. Couple are saying that.

Remember in the fall of Harris' senior year he had a couple of his school mates come on here and tell us he was playing us intentionally. That he had no intention of coming to uk. That proved to be true.
Its nice that elam stayed home but he wasnt a 5 star rivals player.

People close to Wills are saying he's already given them a soft commit.

To be honest we are hearing the same thing about Wills. Bama could very well sign 4 5* OL in this class. They already have 2, 1 is not a Rivals 5* but he is on the other sites and a JUCO 5*. They also lead for Wilson and may for Wills too, that's insane, all of them are OTs, I guess someone needs to get use to playing G or C.

Yeah, and a lot of five stars are a little skeptical about being told they will have to change positions to get to play. They are funny like that. I wouldn't be that surprised to see the other five star we lost to Bama end up being mainly a kick returner. And boy, do they have some talent there also. I really do think he made a mistake in going there, he would have been a hero and a big help at UK AND played behind a VERY good OL that is coming up.
