Southeast Recruiting Special

DE Jadeveon Clowney (Rock Hill, S.C., South Pointe)
Clowney is the best prospect to come along in a decade according to most experts.  Clowney is considering some out-of-state options like Alabama, Florida State, LSU, North Carolina and others; however, I think the comforts of home will prevail in the end.  Clowney won't decide until Feb. 14.  

Prediction: South Carolina

RB Isaiah Crowell (Columbus, Ga., Carver)
Crowell has been between Georgia and Alabama for a while.  Now, Auburn has entered the mix, but honestly I think it is too late.  Auburn does get the last official visit, but in my mind it is down to the bulldogs and the crimson tide.

Prediction: Georgia

LB Curtis Grant (Richmond, Va., Hermitage)

Grant is taking only four of his five official visits to...Ohio State, Florida, UVA, and UNC (next weekend).  However, Virginia is a longshot.  He has openly stated that Virginia will most likely not be the place where he plays college football. It is still unclear whether the Buckeyes or the Gators have the edge at the moment.

Prediction: Florida

LB Stephone Anthony (Wadesboro, N.C., Anson)

The five-star linebacker from North Carolina used to name his favorites in order. However, now he has a top six and isn't giving any hints.  Anthony likely won't stray far from home in North Carolina.  This is bad for Florida, the team that was his leader a few months ago. Right now, I think Virginia Tech and Clemson are his leaders, with Florida as the darkhorse.  Anthony's friend, Jeoffrey Pagan, recently committed to Clemson, and Anthony could end up following him there.  Anthony will still visit UNC and NC State, so the hometown schools are still very much in it.

Prediction: Clemson

DT Tim Jernigan (Lake City, Fla., Columbia)
Jernigan has already taken an official visit to LSU and was at Florida State this weekend.   LSU and FSU seem to be the favorite, but I think he will end up choosing Florida because he grew up a huge Gators fan and has regained interest since Will Muschamp and Co. have arrived in Gainesville.  He will visit UF unofficially during this week and officially visit Tennessee next weekend.

Prediction: Florida

DE Ray Drew (Thomasville, Ga., Thomas County Central)Drew made his official visit to Clemson over the weekend and will announce his college choice Friday at his school. He has also officially visited Georgia, Auburn, Miami and LSU. Drew said that he made his decision last week; he based the decision on "academics, the people and playing time." Drew said he enjoyed his trip to Clemson and spent most of his time with Brandon Thompson and Maliciah Goodman.  Clemson's coach Dabo Swinney will visit Drew at his home on Wednesday. Gene Chizik of Auburn and Al Golden of Miami will also have in-home visits with Drew this week.

Prediction: Georgia
