    Here is an OOS guy I think we have a great shot at. Justin Hunter is from VA and a track athlete as well. He says track will be a big part of his decision.

    6'4
    182
    4.49

    Offers from LSU, Bama, FSU, VT, UNC, NCstate, Clemson, BC, Maryland, and West Virginia. Interest from UGA and UF as well.

    LSU is the only program who has offered him for both up to this point. UGA has also offered in track but not football yet.

    He competes in the high jump, long jump, and triple jump.

    Hope we get Reed and end our WR recruiting. Don't want to scare Davis and Reed off. Reed should be our #1 priority right now. Him and Davis give us exactly what we don't have from our WRs right now. Reed has incredible wiggle/acceleration/quickness. Reminds me of Debose, hope we can land him...

    Assuming we land Reed which is not a cut and dry situation. We only signed one sure WR prospect in 2009. The other is Calhoun but we really do not know what position he ends up at or how he will develop.

    We need at least 3 WRs this year and wouldn't be surprised if we take 4.

    Plus, I have not heard that Hunter is announcing anytime soon. So we are going to recruit plenty of WRs to fill our needs and as insurance if we do not land Reed or other WRs at the top of our board.

    One thing that worries me about Trovon ending up at LSU is the passing of his mom which was thought to be one of the main reason he was going to stay close to home. The unfortunate loss of his mom could push him away but that is just speculation at this point. Point is we do not know what is going to transpire with all of our targets.

    LSU is in the lead for his services. He would be a big get for both football and track.

    He will most likely announce his decision at the Under Armor Game.

    nope football player first. track as a secondary sport. Two me Trindon is a football player that likes to run track. Carter was more of a track person that played football

    Sounds like he's very close to committing.

    He almost pulled the trigger this weekend but wanted to talk to his mom about everything. LSU has a big lead but watch out for a possible trip to UF before deciding. If no trip is scheduled, look for a commitment soon. However, UF seems to have a at least 2 other WRs higher on their board.

    So I think he is a Tiger either way.
