The prospects of Lemonier and Smith playing together at the next level are no longer as definite as they appeared a week ago as both say that it would be nice, but it is not a guarantee. “We want to, but we’ll see,” Smith said to Rivals. I’m just trying to find the best opportunity for me.”
These guys are in constant contact with each other and such an admission says to me that they are leaning toward separate schools.
Does anyone else see this as a tug of war battle and whoever gets pulled in the mud pit first has to attend the school the other wants to go to? Last week Smith says that it is 95% that they will be at the same school. After spending time together and discussing things, now they are saying that there is a real possibility they could end up at different places.
My best guess right now is Lemonier to FSU and Smith to UT. Smith is sure where he wants to go though his ideals may not line up completely with Corey’s. He will have some time to work on Corey in order to convince him to see it his way. Plus the coaches will be in Lemonier’s home at some point this upcoming month and that will help for sure.
