Just saw that ESPN under-the-radar player piece and I'm already refreshing 247 to see if any of our guys are gonna pop off this spring. But honestly my mind is on the decommitment watch right now. Hearing noise on a couple of our 2026 pledges that have been getting heavy visits from SEC programs. Sources close to the program say the bagman activity is getting ridiculous with these late spring pushes.
We've got a kid in our current class who's been silent on social media for three weeks and his last couple interactions on Twitter have been with coaches from a certain schoool in the state of Alabama. That's never a good sign. The 247 composite has us sitting solid but one flip could drop us two spots in the team rankings and that's the difference between saying we got a top 15 class versus top 20.
The dead period coming up might actually help us lock in the ones who are still solid. But I've seen this movie before. You get a soft commit in January, they take an OV somewhere else in April, and by May they're posting their top five with a new school leading. Our staff needs to get these guys on campus for spring practice visits and show them what they're missing. If we lose another four-star to a bag drop from Texas A&M or Auburn I'm gonna lose it.
