New prospect update

demjackets said:
The times I talked to Matt and his mother down at GT, I believed we would likely be his destination if offered, now under Gailey that wasnt going to happen as he wasnt going to be offered and since then a lot of schools offered while GT didnt, so that set us back. He likes Illinois but he is someone I think would like to be around family. At Illinois he would be a WR. He is fine playing either position but I think he wants a chance at QB. He might not end up at GT but the point was we are still in it with him and have a legit shot.

Roark had 0% chance of playing QB at GT IMO.
 
it sounds to me like if Floyd had to make a decision at the end of this week, it would definitely be GT. Hopefully the in-home goes well.
 
Has anyone heard the status on Rhonne Sanderson? I know he might not be a HUGE priority, but I watched a highlight film on this OL and he was abusing the opposing DE.

I think were on the outside looking in with Brandon. He is definitely target #1 on our board but since the changes, I think his liking of Tech has diminished somewhat. We still have a shot but its a longshot.

I believe tonight is the in-home visit with Brandon Thompson. Paul Johnson and the entire defensive staff are going to see him.

I'd say any OL is a huge priority if the coaching staff wants him.
 
Hivered or dems please update as soon as you can about brandon thompsons in home. If we could somehow land him he would be the gem of the class. If pj pulls this off the man is going to be a great recuriter.

I do know Clemson is still considered the leader.

But I also know that BT's father is a influence on him and his decision and I believe in my heart its a good influence. We will see how it plays out.
 
Sounds like it was a good in home with Brandon. We are still very much in it with BT as he expressed. I am not sure on the time frame of his decision.

As for Roark he has scheduled a visit down to the flats for Thursday and will make another trip down next week. 2 visits seem like he still has a high interest level in GT.
 
believe it or not...after the in-home with Brandon Thompson it seems we are battling Tennessee moreso than Clemson! I am shocked. The in-home did go well though.

Regarding Rhonne Sanderson. FSU may offer...if they do he will go there. He will visit them 1/25.

Wow, and all this time I though it was a Clemson/LSU battle. So you really think it comes down to us and the vols Hiver?

I don't know about that. Roark seems like a legit QB prospect. Probably the best one available. Anyone have some news on whether he is serious about GT?
 
I think the key word was "had", as in had no chance while Chan was the coach. We have a different coach now.
 
By any chance, will the fact TJ Barnes chose us yesterday help sway BT to head to Tech?
 
thank you hivered and dems! Wow i always thought bt was a lock to clemson. I really hope we can pull this one off.
