    there’s definitely something in his background that has caused the instate schools to be afraid to touch him

    when a 5 star LB from Miami is choosing between Nebraska and Tennessee...you know it’s gotta be bad

    The family did a zoom call with the Tigers staff on Wednesday and decided to cancel the visit and stay home for the weekend. From what we've heard, Foreman is starting to tire a bit from the recruiting process and wants to try and narrow his focus down and begin to trim his list.

    Now, this doesn't mean LSU is out at this point and Foreman said he still plans to come out with a top five in the next week or so. The Tigers will be on that list. Saying that, Clemson and USC are the two schools that seem to be inching ahead of the rest of the pack right now.

    Foreman's recruitment has been a fluid one throughout the last year. He committed to Clemson in February but backed off a few months later. He visited Georgia in August and the Dogs looked in great shape.

    A few weeks later, he visited LSU and the Tigers suddenly jumped to the top of his board. In late October, he quietly visited Arizona State and the Sun Devils became a major player. USC has always been a constant and we know that's where some in his family want him at. He talked about the improvement he has seen with the team and especially on the defensive side of the ball.

    Clemson, who looked out out of the race just a few weeks ago, made a big move after he visited last weekend and as mentioned, appear to be among his top two. Foreman plans to sign during the Early Period in December but keep it quiet until he can announce publicly at the All-American Bowl Ceremony on Jan. 2.

    If we know anything about Foreman's recruitment, it's that you should always expect the unexpected and things can change fast. Today, USC and Clemson look good but it won't surprise at all if next week, LSU, Georgia or Arizona State are at the top of his board.

    He's 100% the next Ronald Powell the more that I think about it. I'm guessing we passed due to this comparison.

    OSU or Oklahoma. He’s taking a visit this weekend to OU and signing in the early period. We’ve been in the lead for damn near two years.

    Im amazed the shine hasnt worn off Oklahoma yet with recruits. Youd think getting embarrassed every time they play a competent team would resonate.

    Was told that he beat up his girl at school, which led to the teacher rumors. Also, apparently he is shorter/smaller than his listed size, and teams are doubting he will hold up at LB.

    Seriously though, I think Caleb wins out. We've been leading for two years but he hasn't pulled the trigger. With a bunch of their commits in town, might be too much to overcome this late in the process.

    He supposedly is 6’1 205 but the concern is if he has maxed out physically

    he’s another one of those kids like Langston and Rucker who looked great as sophs but never developed like these recruiting sites predicted

    Size wise he’s already big enough to play in a 4-3 or 4-2-5 scheme. He had an awesome JR yr for NW. The size thing is something coaches are using as an excuse because they don’t want to coach a certifiable nut bar

    Our composite ranking has dropped the last four updates. Bama’s has gone up four straight updates.

    I’m sure there’s nothing to it, just good old honest evaluations.

    Sir, our money is being spent at Urban’s Pint House as part of an agreement with him to not interrupt our recruiting in Texas.

    We can’t have too many irons in the fire at one time.

    The biggest driver in Bama’s ranking update increases has really been from massive jumps for Latham and Dallas Turner on Rivals. They were absurdly underrated outside the top 100 over there until the last few updates.

    But I do think we have a few guys overrated in the middle of our class like maybe Blackshire, Kaine Williams, James Brockermeyer, Milroe.

    Speaking from experience, the reward for merely beating Bama in the team rankings is pretty unsatisfying. I would not sweat it.

    Facts. There were some really bizarre rankings on Rivals for a few of our guys. It was inevitable they were going to jump. At one point Latham was like 120. Just really weird for arguably the best player in the country
