Meanwhile:
Georgia picked up its ninth commitment of the 2018 recruiting cycle Monday morning from four-star defender Caleb Tannor. Making this news even better for UGA fans, Tannor chose the Bulldogs over Auburn.
The 6-foot-3, 225-pound Tannor ranks as the No. 15 weakside defensive end in the nation and the No. 34 overall prospect from the state of Georgia according to
247Sports Composite Rankings. While Georgia and Auburn were his Top 2 choices, Tannor also holds scholarship offers from Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, LSU, Mississippi State and Tennessee among others.
Auburn reaches into Georgia, lands commitment from elite LB Michael Harris:
Monday was a mixed morning on the recruiting trail for Auburn, after
losing out on Caleb Tannor, the Tigers reached double digit commitments for the 2018 recruiting cycle thanks to the pledge of linebacker Michael Harris.
The 6-foot-2, 213-pound Tucker, Ga., native ranks as a four-star prospect, the No. 11 inside linebacker nationally by
247Sports Composite and No. 27 recruit in the state of Georgia. Harris committed to the Tigers over offers from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss, Tennessee and Ohio State among many others.
South Carolina picked up
three commitments on Saturday, but the Gamecocks’ big recruiting weekend wasn’t over.
Will Muschamp got his fourth pledge of the weekend when Highland Community College (Kan.) WR Ronnie Jamison told his Twitter followers where his roots were a made – in a “Sandstorm.”
South Carolina offered the Irmo, S.C. native on Friday, and it didn’t take him long to commit.
“It’s always been a dream of mine to play at USC,” Jamison told
The State. “Coach Muschamp said I could make an impact on the team and I have had a great relationship with coach McClendon. I never thought I would commit this early but South Carolina always has been my school and now I can concentrate just on football this year.”
JC Shurburtt of 247Sports
writes that upon viewing Jamison’s highlights, below, the 6-foot-2, 190-pound wideout could be a hidden gem of the 2018 class.
The Mizzou Tigers picked up their eighth commitment for the class of 2018 Sunday.
Three-star athlete Cam Taylor committed to the Tigers over offers from Michigan, Mississippi State and Louisville, among others. Listed at 6-foot, 196 pounds, Taylor is certainly talented enough to play multiple positions for the Tigers, but he’ll play defensive back for Barry Odom’s defense.
The Montgomery native is rated as the nation’s No. 47 overall athlete and the state’s No. 20 overall prospect, according to 247Sports Composite Rankings.
Taylor becomes the second commitment for the Tigers from the state of Alabama, joining 3-star QB James Foster.
Missouri:
Hours after landing 4-star ILB Chad Bailey from Missouri City, Texas, another Houston-area recruit announced he’s taking his talents to the Show Me State.
Three-star WR Kam Scott from Manvel, Texas became the Tigers’ third commitment of the day when he posted a video on his Twitter account revealing his decision. Missouri won out over other finalists Baylor, Illinois, Louisville and Tulsa.
Scott, who measures 6-foot-1, 156 pounds, is ranked the No. 66 recruit in the Lone Star State and No. 84 wide receiver in the 2018 class. He has 14 scholarship offers, including division rivals South Carolina and Tennessee.
