Recruiting Update (Jan. 4 - 20)

January 28, 2012 10:51 pm

no, no word.  I scowered the Arizona sites for Rivals.com and 247Sports and neither have any articles on the visit.  There were a few posts with pictures of him wearing an Arizona jersey on his twitter, but these are normal things for kids to do when they visit somewhere.  He's playing it pretty close to the vest this weekend and throughout his recruitment so it's truly going to be a revelation either way tomorrow.  Best i figure is 50/50 either way.  We've won this 50/50 battle twice this season (Mo Seisay and Imani Cross) let's hope we can win it again.

The fact that he still plans to announce Sunday bodes well for him picking someone other than Rutgers, if he was still thinking Rutgers I think he might have postponed it.  It's between Zona and Us i'm pretty possitive.

After a bit more scouring i heard that he said his visit to Arizona went, "Better than he expected it to." Not exactly a ringing endorsment.  It looks pretty good for Nebraska but i wouldn't sleep on Rutgers even without a head coach.  I'm nervous about this one.  I'll let you know as soon as i find out.

Nebraska lost a HUGE battle today, and I'm flat out depressed from the news.  Even though he won't officially announce it till 5:30pm Devin Fuller has just committed to UCLA... Sad day, especially when he gets to campus and they throw him immediately to the defense side of the ball.  Bank on this, he will not play a snap of quarterback at UCLA.

Too bad, i really thought we had a shot at this kid.... in the end I guess Nebraska was just too.....something for him.  I don't even know.

UCLA of all places have fun playing corner safety or Wr. I could deal with zona bc it made since with rich rod being there but ucla??? Ucla lol why I guess he didn't want to play qb that much because he won't. Or did he not hear slick Rick is fired and their not running he pistol. Sad day really blew my mood. Ucla wow

Updated rankings and Signing Day announcements:

Rivals.com: 28th Nationally (3rd B1G)
247Sports: 33rd Nationally (3rd B1G)
Scout.com: 55th Nationally (10th B1G)

To me Scout has always been the least reputable of the bunch (especially with JUCO players)

Players announcing and signing:

Devian Shelton: 7:00am
Andrus Peat: 12:35pm (on ESPNU)
Aaron Curry: 7:00am (down to NU and Iowa... without Fuller, i like our chances on him)
Raymond Ford: Unknown
Sebastian Smith: (Probably after signing day)
Vincent Valentine: sometime on Wed(already has made his decision)
Alonzo Moore: sometime on Wed


 I'll do some research to see who else and when else we'll be expecting some announcments.

They really need to add an "edit" but here so i don't have to repost this... official announcment times:

 On Signing Day (Wed. Feb 1)

Devian Shelton: 11:00am
Andrus Peat: 12:35pm (on ESPNU)
Aaron Curry: 7:00am (down to NU and Iowa... without Fuller, i like our chances on him)
Raymond Ford: TBD
Sebastian Smith: (Probably after signing day)
Vincent Valentine: 1:00pm
Alonzo Moore: 9:00am

Early forecasts indicate that Curry,Valentine and Peat are pretty much N... and that Moore, Shelton and Ford look like they could be N but wouldn't be a huge surprise if they go elsewhere.  I haven't heard of any surprise prospects but I have a feeling someone will pop up out of nowhere.  Can't wait for Feb 1. (will start a new thread on Wed. all about LOIs)

By the way, this has now become the 3rd most watched Thread on this board!

Peat chose Stanford. He was not a lock.
