Tim Jernigan - #2 DT/#29 Overall Player in Nation

DT Tim Jernigan (Lake City Columbia, FL) has officially narrowed his list down to 3: Jernigan will choose between FSU, LSU, and Tennessee on ESPN tomorrow at 11 a.m.  The big surprise here is that Jernigan is no longer considering Florida.  Florida is extremely close to his home and he grew up a gator fan.  He was all but a lock before Head Coach Urban Meyer stepped down and Defensive Line Coach Dan McCarney left to be the Head Coach at North Texas.  Although Tennessee got the all important last visit, I believe out of the three teams, Tennessee is the least likely to get Jernigan.  At this point, I believe Florida State is the frontrunner because of distance.  Columbia coach Craig Howard confirmed this today: "My gut feeling is that the closer to home the better for him.  It makes me feel like Florida State's got the inside track."  If Jernigan chooses FSU, it will put FSU's already phenomenal class through the roof, and if he chooses LSU, then LSU could make a push for the #1 class in the nation.
