>>> WELCOME BACK TO GPB SPORTS, RECRUITING 2021.

BROUGHT TO US BY OUR FRIENDS, PUBLIC TELEVISION HAS TO BE THE FASTEST HOUR.

HE'S MATT, I'M JOHN, AND WE BRING YOU CHAOS.

WE BRING YOU ABSOLUTE CHAOS INVOLVING THE COACHING CAROUSEL.

THIS IS THE TIME FOR RENEWAL?

>> YOU'VE GOT IT, BROTHER.

>> I CALL IT A SEISMIC SHIFT IN THE COLLEGE COACHING LANDSCAPE THAT HAS PRETTY DRAMATIC REPERCUSSIONS ON THE COLLEGE RECRUITING LANDSCAPE.

LET'S START WITH COACH BRIAN KELLY LEAVING NOTRE DAME.

TAKES OVER AT LSU.

KELLY TAKES OVER TIGERS PROGRAM, CURRENTLY 13 COMMITS, STANDS 15th IN THE NATIONAL RECRUITING RANKINGS, THE CLASS INCLUDES THE NATION'S NUMBER ONE TIGHT END JAY JOHNSON OUT OF OCONEE COUNTY.

THAT'S A PRETTY SAFE COMMITMENT.

>> I THINK SO, YEAH.

>> AND THE FOUR STAR COMMITMENT JADARIAN RIM, ALSO COMMITTED.

THE ONLY HIGH SCHOOL PLAYER IN THE 2022 CLASS IS WESTMINSTER, HOLDEN STAES AND THE IRISH HAVE DECIDED TO PROMOTE MARCUS FREEMAN TO BE THE HEAD COACH TO REPLACE KELLY.

>> LINCOLN, WHO IS NOT IN NORMAN, HE'S HEADING WEST.

>> LINCOLN JUMPS FROM OKLAHOMA TO SOUTHERN CAL.

HAS RECRUITING WORK TO DO IN HOLLYWOOD.

THE TROJANS 2022 SIGNING CLASS HAS BEEN DECIMATED BY THE EARLY SEASON FIRING OF CLAY HELTON.

THEY'RE RANKED 91st IN THE NATION, BUT RILEY HAS THE CACHET, STILL MAKING AN IMPACT.

THERE ARE FOUR AND FIVE STARS OUT THERE WHO NOW HAVE USC ON THEIR RADAR.

NO CURRENT HIGH SCHOOL PLAYERS IN THE TROJANS CLASS AFTER HARDAWAY FOUR STAR DEFENSIVE MYKEL WILLIAMS JUMPED BACK IN OCTOBER AND THERE ARE NO CURRENT PLAYERS IN THE 2022.

>> THIS IS A GREAT HIRE, BILLY NAPIER MAKING THE JUMP FROM LOUISIANA TO FLORIDA.

DOESN'T MOVE THE METER LIKE THE LAST TWO, BUT I THINK IT'S A GREAT CHOICE BY THE GATORS.

PLAYED AT MURRAY COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL AND WENT OUT TO BE A STANDOUT QUARTERBACK.

BILLY IS ONE OF THOSE RARE PEOPLE WHO CAN SAY THEY'VE WORKED FOR BOTH DAV OH SWEENEY AND NICK SABIN.

BEFORE AND AFTER DAN MULLEN WAS FIRED, IT LEAVES THE GATORS DEAD LAST RIGHT NOW IN THE RANKINGS, 36th IN THE NATION.

THE ONLY GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL PROSPECTS REMAINING IN THE 2022 CLASS.

>> AND THE OTHER ELEMENT, WE GET TO SEE A WIDE RECEIVER THAT WE KNOW FROM THE CHAMPIONSHIPS.

>> YOU REMEMBER -- >> I DO.

>> FORMER NUMBER ONE PROCESS EXPECT, FIVE STAR WIDE RECEIVER JADEN HAZELWOOD.

IN THE WAKE OF RILEY'S DEPARTURE, HE'S ENTERED THE TRANSFER PORTAL, ALONG WITH THE NATION'S NUMBER ONE QUARTERBACK, SPENCER RATTLER.

A PRETTY GOOD YEAR THIS YEAR, 39 CATCHES, 399 YARDS, SIX TOUCHDOWNS.

BUT YOU MIGHT REMEMBER WHEN HE WAS AT CEDAR GROVE HIS SENIOR YEAR, HE WAS COMMITTED TO GEORGIA AND STILL CHANGING HIS MIND IN OCTOBER AND SIGNING WITH THE SOONERS.

WHEN HE WAS AT CEDAR GROVE, HE WENT TO VISITS AT FLORIDA STATE AND MIAMI.

IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE IF THE BULLDOGS AND SEMINOLES AND HURRICANES ARE BACK IN THE MIX FOR JADEN HAZELWOOD AS HE REENTERS FROM THE TRANSFER PORTAL.

>> THAT'S THE TOP LEVEL OF THE CHAOS INVOLVING THE COACHES.

>> THERE'S A LOT OF COACHES AND A LOT OF COORDINATORS.

YOU LOOK AT GEORGIA TECH.

THE COORDINATORS, ALL OF THIS STUFF IMPACTS RECRUITING.

IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

>> THERE'S A GAME THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN A COUPLE MILES DOWN THE ROAD FROM US, INVOLVING A TEAM THAT WE'VE TALKED A LOT ABOUT THIS YEAR, THE IMPACT THAT THE STATE OF GEORGIA HAS ON THIS ONE TEAM IS ASTRONOMICAL WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE NUMBERS.

>> S.E.C.

CHAMPIONSHIP GAME AT MERCEDES-BENZ STADIUM TOMORROW, NOT ONLY THE CHAMPIONSHIP ON THE LINE, A SPOT IN THE COLLEGE PLAYOFF IN THE LINE, BUT ALSO A PREMIERE GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL SHOWCASE.

THERE ARE 75 PLAYERS ON THE GEORGIA ROSTER WHO PLAYED HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL IN GEORGIA, ONLY NINE FROM ALABAMA, A LITTLE BIT SURPRISED BY THAT LOW NUMBER.

BUT THERE ARE TWO IN PARTICULAR, ONE FROM EACH, THAT WILL PLAY A BIG ROLE IN THE OUTCOME OF THIS GAME.

LET'S START WITH THE GEORGIA BULLDOGS, FORMER NOSE STAR QUARTERBACK, PIERCE COUNTY'S, MUCH DIFFERENT QUARTERBACK THAN THE ONE WE SAW PLAY AGAINST ALABAMA LAST YEAR.

REMEMBER, HAD A 24-20 LEAD AT HALFTIME AND THEN THINGS WENT OFF THE RAILS IN THE SECOND HALF.

HE THREW THREE PICKS.

BUT THAT WAS JUST HIS THIRD CAREER START.

HE'S A SEASONED STARTER OF THE NUMBER ONE RANKED TEAM IN THE NATION WITH 21 TOUCHDOWNS AND JUST FIVE INTERCEPTIONS, SO HIS STORY IS LIKE A HOLLYWOOD SCRIPT, FROM WALK-ON TO JUNIOR IN COLLEGE, THEN BACK, BEAT OUT ALL THE FOUR AND FIVE STORES ON THE GEORGIA ROSTER.

IF HE CAN GET THE MUCH-ELUSIVE WIN OVER ALABAMA, HE WILL REACH LEGENDRY STATUS.

>> NEXT UP, GETTING IT DONE HALL OF FAMER.

A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT KIND OF PERSPECTIVE FOR ALABAMA AND FORMER DUTCHTOWN FIVE STAR WILL ANDERSON, BUT STILL A PRETTY GOOD STORY.

SOPHOMORE IS HAVING A MONSTER SEASON.

HE REPORTEDLY NEVER RECEIVED AN OFFER FROM GEORGIA, DESPITE THE FACT HE WAS THE NUMBER ONE RATED DEFENSEMAN IN THE COUNTRY, COMING OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL.

IN TUSCALOOSA HE LEADS THE NATION IN 14 SACKS, 30 1/2 TACKLES FOR LOSS, FIVE TIMES, HE'S BEEN NAMED THE S.E.C.

DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK.

SO, AGAIN, HIS STORY IS KIND OF LIKE A MOVIE SCRIPT.

SO WHO ENDS UP, JOHN, BEING THE HERO?

WILL IT BE BENNETT, WHO IT BE ANDERSON?

THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION MIGHT DETERMINE WHO WINS THE S.E.C.

CHAMPIONSHIP.

>> NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

THAT ONE IS GOING TO BE FUN TO KEEP AN EYE ON DOWN THERE ON THE WEEKEND.

WE HAVE A GAME THAT HAS A LOT OF STARS HEADING TO THE NEXT LEVEL THAT WE'LL BE KEEPING AN EYE ON.

EARLY SIGNING DAY COMING UP AROUND THE CORNER.

WE HAVE NATIONALLY RANKED TEAMS ON OUR AIR, COLLINS HILL AND GRAYSON FROM LAST YEAR.

>> AND WE HAVE THE NUMBER ONE PROCESS EXPECT IN THE NATION ON GPB TONIGHT.

WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR?

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?

COLLINS HILL SENIOR FIVE STAR QUARTERBACK TRAVIS HUNTER, NUMBER ONE OVERALL PROCESS EXPECT IN THE COUNTRY.

COMMITTED TO FLORIDA STATE IN MARCH OF 2020.

OVER 15 OTHER OFFERS THAT INCLUDES GEORGIA.

DESPITE CONSTANT SPECULATION THAT HE WOULD FLIP PRIMARILY BECAUSE OF THE STATE OF THE PROGRAM.

>> THAT'S REASONABLE THAT EVERYBODY THINKS HE'S GOING TO FLIP BECAUSE FLORIDA STATE HASN'T BEEN GOOD.

HUNTER HAS BEEN STEADFAST IN HIS PRONOUNCEMENT THAT HE WILL SIGN WITH FSU AND NOW WE'RE TWO WEEKS AWAY, LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AWAY FROM THE NATIONAL SIGNING DAY.

GREW UP IN FLORIDA, FAMILY MOVED TO THE ATLANTA AREA AND HE'S ALWAYS CALLED FLORIDA STATE HIS DREAM SCHOOL.

HIS EAGLES COACH PREDICTS THAT HUNTER WILL BE THE PLAYER THAT BRINGS THE SEMINOLES BACK TO THEIR PAST GLORY, AND HE CERTAINLY HAS MEANT THE DIFFERENCE FOR COLLINS HILL, A TEAM THAT WAS JUST AN AVERAGE MIDDLE-OF-THE-ROAD HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM.

>> WHAT ABOUT THE GUY THROWING IT TO HIM?

>> FOUR STAR SAM HORN, NUMBER NINE QUARTERBACK IN THE NATION, COMMITTED TO MISSOURI IN FEBRUARY.

OVER 16 OTHER OFFERS, INCLUDING GEORGIA TECH, OKLAHOMA STATE, MICHIGAN STATE.

OUTSTANDING RIGHT-HANDED PITCHER IN BASEBALL AS WELL.

HE'S GOING TO PLAY BOTH SPORTS FOR THE TIGERS.

COACH GREGORY SAYS HE'S PROVEN THAT HE'S AN ELITE QUARTERBACK WITH HIS PERFORMANCE.

WHEN HUNTER MISSED FIVE GAMES THIS SEASON WITH AN ANKLE INJURY, A LOT OF FOLKS WROTE OFF THE EAGLES, BUT THEY FORGOT THAT THEY STILL HAD HORN.

AND AS YOU SEE ON THIS VIDEO, HE IS AN EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD ATHLETE.

PEOPLE DON'T REMEMBER OR NOTICE THAT ABOUT HIM.

BUT HE CAN TAKE OFF AND RUN IF THE DEFENSE GIVES HIM THE OPPORTUNITY.

>> THAT'S ONLY TWO OF A GAZILLION THAT WE CAN FOCUS ON.

>> LET'S START WITH ETHAN DAVIS, 20 OFFERS, INCLUDING GEORGIA TECH, OLE MISS AND TENNESSEE.

CAME BACK AFTER SITTING OUT HIS SOPHOMORE SEASON TO PLAY BASKETBALL.

HE MADE THE RIGHT DECISION.

JAY DAVIS, THREE STAR, 12 OFFERS INCLUDING GEORGIA TECH AND TENNESSEE.

CAM PEDRO, COMMITTED TO MARSHALL.

HIS DAD WAS A STANDOUT RUNNING BACK.

HE'S HAD AN EXCEPTIONAL SEASON.

DEON CRAWFORD, AND ASANI REDWOOD, NOT HOLLYWOOD SCRIPT STORY.

AN OFFER BY WESTERN KENTUCKY, EAST TENNESSEE STATE.

FINALLY PICKED UP HIS FIRST POWER FIVE OFFER FROM VANDY.

HE'S A NATIVE OF JAMAICA AND HE'S BEEN PLAYING AMERICAN FOOTBALL FOR ONLY TWO YEARS.

HE PLAYED THE OTHER FOOTBALL, SOCCER.

COACH GREGORY PREDICTS THIS GUY IS GOING TO PLAY IN THE NFL.

>> A DEFENSIVE END WITH THE LAST NAME OF REDWOOD.

LET'S GO TO THE FLIP SIDE, GRAYSON.

>> MIKE DOUGHERTY.

THEY'LL USE HIM A LOT AT LINEBACKER TONIGHT BECAUSE OF INJURIES.

THEY'VE HAD TO MOVE HIM THERE.

HE'S NOT BUILT FOR THE POSITION BUT HE'S A BALLER, A GREAT PLAYER.

HE ATTENDED THE IRON BOWL THIS PAST SATURDAY AND HAS AUBURN IN HIS TOP EIGHT.

LOUISVILLE IS ALSO IN HIS TOP EIGHT.

THAT'S HIS DAD'S HOME TOWN, FORMER RAMS STAR DEFENSIVE END.

MICHIGAN STATE JUST OFFERED DOUGHERTY LAST WEEK.

I LIKE TO WATCH THIS KID PLAY.

>> JOJO STONE, YOUR LIFE IS CALLING.

>> I LIKE TO WATCH THIS KID PLAY.

17 OFFERS, INCLUDING GEORGIA, GEORGIA TECH, PENN STATE AND MICHIGAN.

WAS THE RAMS STARTING QUARTERBACK WHEN WE SAW GRAYSON PLAY BROOKWOOD.

THE COACH SAID HE'S NOT A QUARTERBACK, WE'VE GOT TO PLAY HIM THERE.

SINCE THAT TIME THEY'VE MOVED STONE BACK TO THE SLOT POSITION.

HE'S MUCH MORE DANGEROUS, NOT RUNNING IN BETWEEN THE TACKLES.

THEY CAN GIVE HIM THE BALL IN SPACE AND HE'S DANGEROUS.

AND THE RAMS ARE PLAYING THEIR BEST FOOTBALL OF THE SEASON SINCE THEY MADE THAT MOVE.

HE'S THEIR SECOND LEADING RUSHER FROM 662 YARDS, NINE TOUCHDOWNS.

>> FANCY TV GRAPHIC TIME.

>> WALT CLAIRE FLYNN, SOUNDS LIKE A PO YET.

6'2", 12 OFFERS, INCLUDING GEORGIA, GEORGIA TECH AND FLORIDA STATE.

THREE STAR CORNERBACK COMMITTED TO WEST VIRGINIA, OVER 28 OFFERS, INCLUDING GEORGIA TECH, MICHIGAN AND NEBRASKA.

ANOTHER PLAYER LIKE DOUGHERTY THEY CAN USE IN MULTIPLE SPOTS.

SUPER TALENTED, BUILT LIKE A ROCK.

GRIFFIN STRAUSS, INTERIOR OFFENSIVE LINEMAN, COMMITTED TO GEORGIA IN AUGUST AFTER DE-COMMITTING FROM GEORGIA TECH.

JAYLEN BELL, FRESHMAN CORNER, SEVEN OFFERS INCLUDING GEORGIA.

SMITH, JUNIOR LINEBACKER, 13 OFFERS, HAS ALREADY SET THE RAMS SINGLE SEASON TACKLES RECORD WITH 157.

THEY'VE HAD SOME PLAYERS IN THAT PROGRAM.

HE'S BROKEN SOME PRETTY BIG RECORDS.

AND KYLEN FOX, TIGHT END, FIVE OFFERS, INCLUDING OLE MISS, TENNESSEE.

ALSO USING HIM ON THE DEFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL BECAUSE OF INJURIES AND IT'S NOT BEEN A BAD MOVE.

>> TIME FOR MATT TO GET SOME WATER AND GET REHYDRATED.

THAT WAS A LOT OF INFORMATION.

WHEN WE COME BACK, INTERVIEWER OF THE STARS VISITS POPE COUNTY WITH A QUESTION, IS CJ WASHINGTON THE NEXT GREAT PLAYMAKER?

THE ANSWER IS COMING UP AROUND THE CORNER.

WELL.

BACK TO GPB SPORTS RECRUITING 2021 AND OUR INTERVIEWER OF THE STARS.

SHE VISITS CEDARTOWN AND POLK COUNTY TO CATCH UP WITH CJ WASHINGTON TO FIND OUT THE LATEST WITH HIM AND THE BULLDOGS.

ENJOY.

>> GUYS, I'M NOW JOINED BY CEDARTOWN LINEBACKER CJ WASHINGTON.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US TODAY.

THE BULLDOGS ARE 11-1 AND YOU'VE HELPED LEAD YOUR TEAM TO A SEMI-FINAL BERTH IN THIS PLAYOFF.

WHAT HAS YOUR SENIOR SEASON BEEN LIKE?

>> REALLY JUST A BLESSING.

I'VE BEEN WITH THE TEAM, THEY'RE PUSHING ME.

SO I CAN JUST GIVE BACK TO THEM, REALLY.

>> AFTER THIS YEAR YOU'RE TAKING YOUR TALENT TO ATHENS.

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO COMMIT TO THE DOGS?

>> THEY'VE BEEN MY DREAM SCHOOL SINCE SEVENTH GRADE, REALLY, BECAUSE I TOOK A VISIT JUST TO SEE THE PLACE AND THEN I GOT TO MEET THE COACHES AND STUFF.

>> YOU WERE ACTUALLY THE SECOND PLAYER TO COMMIT IN THE 2022 GEORGIA CLASS, SO YOU JUST KNEW RIGHT AWAY.

WHAT WAS IT ABOUT ATHENS, STANFORD STADIUM AND EVERYTHING THERE THAT MADE YOU WANT TO PLAY THERE?

>> WELL, FIRST OFF, I LOOKED AT THE EDUCATION, IT JUST SEEMED LIKE IT COULD HELP ME OUT, FOR ME, THE ATMOSPHERE IS GOING TO BE THERE, THE COACH IS GOING TO BE THERE, AND THEN THE BROTHERHOOD WAS SECOND, AND IT FELT LIKE HOME.

>> WELL, YOU'VE GOT A PRETTY GOOD ROLE MODEL AND I HEAR YOU'RE RELATED DOWN THE LINE, THE ALL-STAR CLEVELAND BROWNS RUNNING BACK NICK CHUBB.

WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM HIM?

>> A LOT.

MOSTLY JUST TO STAY HUMBLE, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS GOING TO FALL IN LINE IF I JUST KEEP GRINDING AND JUST KEEP GOING.

>> YOU WORKED OUT WITH HIM FOUR TIMES A WEEK IN THE WEIGHT ROOM OVER THE SUMMER, SO CLEARLY YOU'RE A BEAST, BECAUSE HE'S NOTORIOUS IN THE WEIGHT ROOM.

HOW DID THAT HELP YOU PREPARE FOR THE NEXT LEVEL?

>> SEEING WHAT HE CAN DO, JUST LIKE INSPIRED ME TO KEEP GOING AND THEN TRY TO BEAT HIS NUMBERS.

HE WAS PUSHING ME LIKE BACK-TO-BACK, EVEN WHEN I WASN'T FEELING GOOD, HE WAS PUSHING ME.

AND KNOWING HE WASN'T FEELING GOOD ON TOP OF THAT.

SO IT JUST MADE ME BE BETTER THAN WHAT I AM NOW.

>> DID YOU BEAT HIM IN ANY OF THOSE NUMBERS?

>> OKAY, HIS SENIOR YEAR COMPARED TO MY SENIOR YEAR, BECAUSE MY SENIOR YEAR IS NOT OVER YET.

BUT I'M PRETTY SURE I'M GOING TO GET THERE.

>> AWESOME.

THAT IS FANTASTIC.

WHAT IS THE POSSIBILITY OF YOU PLAYING SOME RUNNING BACK AT THE NEXT LEVEL?

HAS THAT BEEN IN THE WORKS AT ALL?

>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

I KNOW I TALKED TO KIRBY, LIKE I WANT TO SAY THREE WEEKS AGO, AND IF HE HAS TO, HE'LL PUT ME AT RUNNING BACK, BUT RIGHT NOW LINEBACKER.

>> WHAT DO YOU MODEL YOUR GAME AFTER?

>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

I'M GOING TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

I REALLY DON'T WATCH FOOTBALL LIKE THAT.

>> OKAY, INTERESTING.

>> LATELY I'VE BEEN WATCHING, LIKE, JUST CLIPS OF HOW HIS GAME IS, LIKE REALLY LIKE PASS RUSHING AND HOW HE READS RUN PLAYS AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

>> WELL, MY LAST QUESTION FOR YOU, YOU'VE GOT A BIG GAME AGAINST CARVER COLUMBUS, YOU'RE STILL IN YOUR HIGH SCHOOL CAREER.

WE HAVEN'T TURNED THE PAGE YET.

WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE TO BEAT THEM TO GET A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP?

>> I'M GOING TO SAY WHAT I ALWAYS SAY, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, AND USUALLY WHEN I SAY THAT, IT'S LIKE WE PLAN FOR WHAT HAPPENS, SO THIS PAST GAME AGAINST PERRY, WE PLANNED TO WIN.

SO, I MEAN, WE DID EVERYTHING WE COULD, YOU KNOW, TO GET IN THIS SPOT RIGHT NOW.

SO, I MEAN, AS A TEAM, I FEEL LIKE WE'VE GOT IT.

>> WELL, CJ, YOU ARE AN AWESOME INTERVIEW.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.

GOOD LUCK AT THE SEMIS AND GOOD LUCK AT THE NEXT LEVEL, AND WE WILL BE TALKING TO YOU SOON.

>> ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU.

>> INTERVIEWER OF THE STARS, HANNA GOODEN, IN CHARGE OF THE HALFTIME SHOW, PRESENTED BY THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF HIGHWAY SAFETY.

WE WILL TOUR THE STATE WHEN IT COMES TO THE SEMIS.

HANNA WILL BE IN CHARGE OF THAT AT THE BREAK AND LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON AS 32 MAKES IT TO 16 AND THEN MAKE IT TO CENTER PARK NEXT WEEK FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIPS.

WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE GUY THAT WE WERE JUST TALKING TO, WHAT DO YOU SEE IN HIM AS A FOUR STAR LINEBACKer?

>> IT'S GOING TO BE HIM IN THE SEMIFINALS THIS WEEK AND GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL DAILY AS THAT AS A TOSS-UP GAME.

I THINK BULLDOGS FANS ARE GOING TO LOVE CJ WASHINGTON.

HE'S A TWO-WAY STAR.

HE RUSHED FOR 204 YARDS AND SCORED FOUR TOUCHDOWNS IN THEIR VICTORY OVER PERRY.

HE WAS THE DOGS FIRST COMMITMENT WAY BACK IN JULY 2020.

>> WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT OTHER MATCHUPS, LET'S GO TO 7A.

>> WALTON AT MILTON, SEMIFINALS, JORDAN McDONNELL, YOU SAW HIM RIGHT HERE ON GPB JUST A COUPLE WEEKS AGO, DOMINANT IN THE 38-21 VICTORY OVER MARIETTA.

RUSHED FOR CLOSE TO 250 YARDS IN THAT GAME.

HE SHOWED YOU IN THAT GAME 6'1", 220, HE'S A BRUISER, BUT HE ALSO HAS BREAKAWAY SPEED.

HE REALLY MANAGED HIS TOUCHES THIS YEAR, SO THE EXPRESSION, THE PLAYOFFS, I THINK THEIR PLAN HAS WORKED VERY WELL.

>> 6A, CARROLLTON AND BUFORD AND SOMEONE IN PARTICULAR THAT YOU HAD YOUR EYE ON?

>> ISAIAH BOND, FOUR STAR NUMBER ONE ATHLETE IN THE COUNTRY.

28 OFFERS, RECENTLY DE-COMMITTED FROM FLORIDA.

WE TALK ABOUT BUFORD AND WE'RE USED TO TALKING ABOUT THEIR STAR PLAYERS BUT IT'S HARD TO REMEMBER A PLAYER AS DYNAMIC AS ISAIAH BOND.

STAR WIDE RECEIVER, LOCK DOWN CORNER.

THE COACH SAYING HE COULD DO EITHER ONE IN THE S.E.C.

THE ONLY QUESTION IS WHERE IS THAT GOING TO BE?

LIKE I MENTIONED, UP UNTIL A COUPLE WEEKS AGO, HE WAS THE HIGHEST RATED PROCESS EXPECT IN FLORIDA'S SIGNING CLASS.

HE COMMITTED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY UPON COACH DAN MULLEN BEING FIRED.

NOW THE SPECULATION IS THAT BOND WILL END UP WITH ALABAMA.

>> NEXT STOP, AAA AND A TWO-SEED HAVING TO DO IT ON THE ROAD.

>> PIRATES FOUR-STAR LINEBACKER SMITH IS A GEORGIA COMMIT, TRYING TO GET ABILENE TO THE FINALS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THEIR 70 YEAR HISTORY.

TOLD 24/7 SPORTS THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MARYLAND, BUT HAD SCHOOL HAD EMERGED THAT HAS EVERYTHING THAT HE'S LOOKING FOR IN TERMS OF EDUCATION, THREW FOR 2000 YARDS AND 22 TOUCHDOWNS.
