If Ohio State loses Emory Jones to Alabama, it might try to raid Kentucky’s class.
The following is the latest update of the SB Nation QB Dominoes feature.
November has been quite busy for QB recruiting.
Artur Sitkowski, a New Jersey native who plays for IMG Academy in Bradenton (Fla.) switched his commitment from Miami to Rutgers. This would seem like a major coup for Rutgers, but Miami fans don’t seem all that concerned considering Sitkowski has struggled this year at IMG Academy. If Rutgers can get him to translate his physical tools into production, that will be a big win for the Scarlet Knights.
The bigger news, however, comes from some reading of the tea leaves in Tuscaloosa and Columbus.
Emory Jones, a long-time Ohio State commitment, is now widely expected to flip to Alabama. While Jones is not the only top QB the Tide is pursuing (see also: Tanner McKee), he does seem like the most likely to end up in the class.
In response, Ohio State has offered Jarren Williams, who is currently committed to Kentucky. Williams has a great relationship with Kentucky, but the Buckeyes and Wildcats are simply a different class of program.
One other prospect to keep an eye on: Matt Corral, the California QB who is committed to Florida. Florida is without a head coach after firing Jim McElwain, and it’s yet to be seen if Corral will fit the new Gators’ system, or if he’ll have a good relationship with the new staff.
Quickly
- Jason Kirk does a great job with his playoff predictions.
- You don’t usually see interim head coaches accepting commitments, but Florida’s Randy Shannon apparently did.
- UCLA has now had five decommitments in the last week. Things are unraveling.
- Neat breakdown of an Iowa play by Richard Johnson.
- Spencer Hall’s top whatever is one of my top reads of the week.
- Other than Wisconsin, the Big 10’s playoff hopes are probably shot.
