    I'm going to take some time later today and reach out to some of my best sources in Gotham, but this is all I have so far: CLICK

    Keep fluctuating back and forth between #4 and #5 for 2017, but it looks like I should finish fourth. LINK

    For 2018 I will have an entire cycle to get my picks in (started last July for the 2017 class), so I'm looking to take home the gold for this next class.

    Yes, as they are in a weak conference. Can you imagine if they were in the ACC and actually had to put in an effort?

    Georgia guys, if you could let Kirby know that Otis Reese is 100% solid to Michigan and that he shouldn't even bother, that would be really appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Clemson is gonna grab 3 of the current top 4 recruits nationally in 2018, in QB Trevor Lawrence, DE Xavier Thomas, and RB Zamir White. That should put them in the top 5, I'd guess.

    Can fans of teams that have delusions of being good at recruiting post here? And by delusions I mean aiming for a bunch of elite national prospects(lol at ASU in Louisiana, that was funny) and then being completely and totally unprepared for the SHOCKING reality of not signing any of them... and ending up with a class of 18 with 25 spots available?

    Because, if so, I'm in

    To add to this:

    If you have any sort of intel on 2018 prospects, feel free to DM me and I will investigate. I've learned that there are a handful of people on here that I consider to be valuable sources.

    Example of good intel: You have some kind of family or local connection with someone or something to that effect.

    Example of bad intel: gowolverines8 messaging me to say that Julio Jones is getting ready to commit to Michigan.


    Let's make the crystal ball great again. Thank you and god bless.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but didnt Michigan just sign 59 players in the last two years? How you gonna have a top 3 class again if your doing it the right way?

    Or do you mean right way as in Grey shirts, medical scholarships, running kids out of the program, etc?
