***Some team camp quick notes (Updated evening session)...

  • Here's an update from the evening session...

    ***A 2014 prospect that has really stood out is TE Christopher Herndon from Meadowcreek (Ga.) High School. He's every bit of 6-4, 230 and runs and jumps well. He's also a good basketball player and it shows on the field. I'll talk with him tomorrow afternoon.

    ***WR Isaiah Jones has a teammate to watch at Milton (Fla.) High in 2014 ATH Andre Flakes. He's 5-9, 175 but fast and quick. He played half the season on defense and had 6 interceptions and then switched over to offense and helped them average about 35 ppg the second half of the season.

    ***I watched one of Jones' game this afternoon -- he had a one-handed TD catch and leaping interception playing safety. He's a special player.

    ***WR Justin Wyatt of Collins Hill in Suwannee, Ga., had about 7 TD's and one INT today to lead his team to a 6-0 record. He's a good player with offers from Cincy, Troy and Ohio.

    ***The only other team I know is 6-0 is Greensboro (Ala.) High led by Jevontay Smith. Pretty sure Milton is 6-0 or 5-1 and Huntsville HS looked like it did well. If I get the playoff bracket for tomorrow here soon, I'll post it. Their plan is to have the playoffs and then let the final two play the championship in Jordan-Hare. First time they've done that and I think it's a great idea.

    ***I will check out lineman camp some more tomorrow but don't know of any big-time standout at this time. Should have updates tomorrow starting in the early afternoon.

    **********

    My afternoon session update...

    ***WR Isaiah Jones is off to a good start. He had about 4 TD catches in the first two games and played the third in the indoor, which I didn't see. He looks terrific. His mother wasn't able to make the trip with him so it's unlikely he will commit this trip but you never know. I will speak with him Friday after camp ends or earlier is anything happens.

    ***One of the standouts I saw this afternoon was WR Marqui Hawkins from Carver in Columbus, Ga., who is a Florida commit. Gabe Wright was over on the Carver sidelines with them and a number of Auburn coaches watched him play including Gene Chizik. 2014 WR Ryeshene Bronson from Dunbar in Ft. Myers, Fla., was also impressive. He's every bit of 6-3, 182. I'll speak to both when the camp ends Friday at noon.

    ***Was impressed with WR/S/ATH Siran Neal from Abbeville (Ala.) High. He's about 6-0, 175 and very athletic. So far, he has offers from UAB and West Alabama.

    ***Another sleeper is WR Jevontey Smith from Greensboro (Ala.) High. He is about 6-2, 189 and has an offer from MTSU. He said Tennessee is close to offering and may do so when he camps up there in a couple of days.

    ***They are taking a dinner break right now and will be back for an evening session at 7 pm CT.

    Seems like FSU really thinks Jones is theirs if they push for a commitment and that he grew up a big FSU fan. What do you think?

    Yes, and that may still be true, but I think some things have changed there and Auburn is the team to beat either way. I'm going to talk to some more folks in the know about his recruitment over the next 24 hours and if I hear differently, I'll let you know.

    They're doing great and I think they're either 5-1 or 6-0 and will be in playoffs tomorrow.

    They are on the intramural fields except for the final one in J-H. Anyone can come out and watch.
