'14 FL LB Jakob Johnson (UT Signee 2/5/14)

[UT = Checkmate]

Just got off plane and heard the news...Boom!

1. We are at 32, Dews is reportedly GS.
2. Has there not been talk of Paulk being ok with GS?
3. Is it not possible someone flips?
4. VQ has been saying for the past month the staff is trying to find ways to take more than 30. Blue-shirting is what seems to have the most legs, and seems like a possibility for a couple of our commits.

Ok, so what your saying is Johnson & Williams commitments today may have taken other commitments spots. (Dews, Paulk, ??, ??).

Good call.

got a question, so since we didnt make a bowl game and the EEs cant go to those practices, what what now is the advantage of being an EE? Just extra S&C time?

If that's what you took from my post maybe you should read it again, but this time slower.

Taking someone's spot means our staff is telling them to look elsewhere. If Dews and Paulk said 2 weeks ago to our staff they're willing to GS, and so we added 2 today, that's not taking their spot.

You also completely ignored the other parts of my post.

Good to see the Teutonic Terror is in the house!

We are going to have to build an addition to the house at this rate though.

More time in S&C, more time on campus, more time with the playbooks, more time to get adjusted to college life. There is alot of upside to being an EE.

EE's enroll in school in January. They go through winter workouts with the S&C staff, spring practice & spring game, all of the 7 on 7 stuff with their teammates, so when August camp rolls around they're already comfortable on campus and with teammates and staff, etc, etc...it's a big deal.

Great news. This LB group fills a desperate need of physical guys that can shed blocks and run to the ball. Bright future ahead on D.

Guess he didn't get the memo he's not allowed to take other visits, might as well remove him from the commitment list, his spot is up for grabs already.

This is kind of interesting. We know Butch doesn't normally allow visits for commits, but this kid's situation is pretty unique. There's not a whole lot American kids could learn about other schools on OVs that they don't already know or can't find out on ESPN, but Johnson's only been in the country a few months. He probably doesn't know anything about the other schools.

And all of Spring football. Huge advantage.

It's all good though because I'm sure JJ isn't actually a commit in our coaches eyes as he's gonna take his visits still.

Might be the case. Also have to consider if an fsu offer were to come, it could change things.

Dude has barely been in America. Let him take his Central Florida visit. He will be here come Jan.

Keep trying and eventually you will get that E fight you are desperatly trying to get into

No we don't.

S/O to @JohnsonJakob on becoming the newest member of the family. Can't wait to play with ya man.

Johnson still taking other visits?

I think he's just making sure it's the right choice. Remember, he's only been in America since July and hasn't really been anywhere outside of Florida.

He's gonna lose his spot

That's what I just said. I knew Fort was stalking my posts.

If so, I only hope it's to a kid like Garrett or Jackson because this is a good get for the staff.

Boom!
