Most UK fans are hoping that Mike Thornton (Stone Mountain, Ga) commits to UK this weekend while visiting with four teammates. It appears Thornton will visit USC on January 29th to see what Kiffin & Co. have to offer. Based on the article from the AJC it appears Thornton's recruitment could go all the way to signing day.

That article was from three days ago. A lot has changed since then I am sure. I would say Georgia is more of a contender then Kiffin and Company. There is something to say about how good a recruiter Orgeron is. There is no telling how many violations he breaks.
ReplyDeleteI apologize for putting old information out there, but I didn't hear much about USC (and I was on the west coach for a week). Your right, a lot can change in a short amount of time. My guess is that USC gets a visit as Orgeron is one hell of a recruiter. Also, Georgia would be a serious contender. I like UK's chances with his frends going there.
ReplyDeleteI do to. I would say if he doesn't go out and commit to UK then USC or UGA would be the favorites unfortunately. The logical choice would be to commit to UK, for obvious reasons of playing time, family atmosphere, and closeness to home. He would have to compete for playing time at USC or UGA but some kids would rather ride the pine on a big time football school rather than get a lot of pt on a school like UK. We will see, I think our chances are great at getting him though. Would love to see this guy pick UK. Thanks for the posts. I check your sight regularly and appreciate the time and effort you put into it.
ReplyDeleteTypically Georgia doesn't lose in-state players they want. The coaches at Stephenson could play a key role in his decision too.
