Jim Harbaugh, Kirby Smart Make Final Pitches For 4-star Clay-chalkville Receiver Nico Collins

... said. "We hung out a little bit, ate, watched TV. Just hanging out. They need that 6-foot-5 receiver. They have a lot of shifty, slot receivers, but need a big guy.". Collins said he's seen most of what he needs to see at Georgia, but is looking forward to his official visit. "I've been there multiple times," Collins said. "It's my official, so it's a chance to hang out one more time and see if it's the right place for me the next few years.". Collins also has LSU and Alabama in his final four, but in no order. He took an official visit to LSU in early December and an unofficial visit to the school two weekends ago. "My first time going to LSU was on an official," Collins said. "I had to come back one more time to check it out. I really enjoy myself down there. (Assistant) Coach (Dameyune) Craig showed me a good time and a couple of receivers did. We had a good time.". After the Georgia trip, it's down to business as he prepares to make a decision that will be announced on National Signing ...

Aubrey Solomon, Nico Collins Among Players Michigan Hopes To Land On Signing Day

... Collins (2:30 p.m.), five-star linebacker Willie Gay (10 a.m.) and four-star defensive lineman Jay Tufele (11:30 a.m.). But Solomon and Collins appear to be the two players Michigan has the best shot at. And both would be big-time additions to what's already an impressive class. Michigan is currently in a race with both Alabama and Georgia for each player. And, in each instance, the Wolverines are viewed as leaders via 247 sports' ever-popular "Crystal Ball" projection chart. Solomon would give Michigan a second five-star prospect in the class and it would give Harbaugh an honorary recruiting perseverance award, as Michigan already had a commitment from the 6-foot-3, 288-pounder from Leesburg, Georgia back in June. Solomon decommitted from Michigan in August after dealing with what he thought were ...

The Player That Each Sec Team Wants Most On National Signing Day

... cornerback prospects in the class of 2017, as well as a top-150 recruit overall. He has a final three of Arkansas, Ole Miss and Texas. He visited Arkansas on January 20. DE Markaviest Bryant: Bryant (6-4, 226) is a four-star prospect from Cordele (Ga.) Crisp County. Bryant is among the top 15 weakside ends in the country and a top-200 prospect overall. He is considering Auburn, Georgia, LSU and Alabama , with the home-state Bulldogs considered the favorite. He visited Auburn this past weekend, which means the Tigers had the coveted “final visit” spot. DE La Bryan Ray: Ray (6-4, 260) is a five-star prospect from Madison (Ala.) James Clemens. Ray (above, second from left) is considered the top strongside end in the country, as well as a top-30 prospect overall in the class of 2017. He is considering Florida, Alabama and Tennessee. Ray visited Florida this past weekend, but he seems to be leaning toward the Tide. WR Nico ...

What's A Strong Finish For Michigan? And Thoughts On Aubrey Solomon, Nico Collins, Others

... six top prospects. @Land Of Justice do you think Kurt Taylor ends up in the class. — Intent to Deceive (@nezzy 21) January 24, 2017. Answer: A commit since October 2015, Kurt Taylor has seen his stock plummet, and now sits as the lowest-rated Michigan commit at No. 891 overall in the country. Taylor has received late offers from Hawaii and Michigan State. His dad is an alum of Hawaii, where he played basketball. And Taylor was just there to participate in the Polynesian Bowl. Michigan State was a school that really came out of nowhere. Taylor is supposed to visit this weekend, the last weekend before Signing Day, but that might not happen. In the end, I think he sticks in this class. @Land Of Justice nico collins update. — Glenn Heberlig (@Glenn Heberlig) January 24, 2017. Answer: The recruitment of Pinson (Ala.) 4-star WR Nico Collins has become the total opposite of what we thought it to be ...

The Latest On Michigan Wolverines Recruiting

... favored to choose Georgia — a school that has recruited him for two years. For the entire month of January, nearly every outlet had Collins tabbed to the Bulldogs. But suddenly on Sunday night, things took a turn. Georgia recruiting writers Kipp Adams and Rusty Mansell were the first to put in a 247 Sports Crystal Ball for Michigan on Sunday night, which was followed by one of the industry’s best — 247 Sports’ Steve Wiltfong — doing the same. Once this news began to surface, we picked up the phone to find out what exactly drove this buzz. My Crystal Ball has been on Michigan for Collins since Sep. 30. I believed the Georgia buzz, but never had sure enough info to switch my pick. And, on Sunday night, then again on Monday morning, received info from a trusted source that Georgia will not be landing Collins. And the believed leader is in fact Michigan. ...

Tackling The Biggest Questions For National Signing Day

... relies on power moves at this stage of his skills advancement. That’s because he hasn’t had to sharpen up anything else. Those have worked. (Yet his slap-and-score strip of UGA freshman Jake Fromm is one of the all-time best plays I’ve seen from a defensive tackle.). The recruiting buzz about him is fueled by a perfect storm scenario. He’s an uncommitted 5-star at a position where the talent is rare. He also has some power programs chasing him. He should not be expected to win a primary starting job at the schools he’s considering during his freshman season. That — despite what most think — is not a knock. He’s just not an otherworldly starter that can come in and do something very few players are able to do. He might’ve been able to do that at Georgia if he was in last year’s class, but not for 2017. That’s enough of that. For the purposes of this class, I don’t think he’s going to go to Georgia. I don’t even think this decision is close enough to rattle on about. Alabama and Michigan are the likely suspects here. Could this be a gambit pulled by a ...
