Jabari Hunt-Days want UGA offer:

Over the weekend the NUC Combine was held in Atlanta. This combine invited some of the best underclassmen in the state, a chanceJHunt Days 102x150 to compete and show off their skills. One of the recruits that was present was Jabari Hunt-Days. Hunt-Days is a 6'2» 226 lb OLB/RB out of Hillgrove HS in Powder Springs, GA. He was voted best LB at the combine...I am hoping to get an offer from Georgia. I really like Georgia and of course I want one from Georgia Tech, I am excited both those schools switched to the 3-4 because I know I can play well in that defense.»

The overall MVP at the NUC was actually a sophomore. Jordan Jenkins, a 6-3, 230-pound linebacker from Harris County, wowed both scouts and participants with a 4.67 40-yard dash and incredible leaping ability.

UGA commit Corey Moore had a big weekend at NUC (Scout$$$):

«I not only wanted to show everyone that Georgia was recruiting top players, but I wanted to compete with some other top players. I wanted to see how I stacked up against some top receivers, what I could learn, and show that I am the best safety in Georgia.»

David Shuman's decision to name Moore the top safety wasn't a tough one. Moore is known for delivering big hits from his safety position and closing on the ball well inside the box, but he had not known shown his type of coverage skills on film that he showed on Sunday. Not only was able to open up his hips and run with talented wide receivers and put guys on the ground within the first couple of yards, but he looked to compete at every opportunity.

There is no doubt about that. He walked away being the top defensive back, but Moore doesn't feel he showed his very best out there on Sunday.

Thomasville's Ray Drew has interests other than football:

In addition to daily workouts in the Thomas County Central weight room and track practice — he's a state-ranked thrower — the 6-foot-5, 240-pound, bluechip football prospect is a licensed minister. He works out of Paradise Missionary Baptist Church in Thomasville and spreading the Lord's word is his life's passion. In fact, what little spare time Drew has had of late has been spent preparing for a three-day revival this week in Ochlocknee.

Dawgs Opinion lists his latest ranking of 2011 recruiting classes. Number 4 is a surprize to me:

1. LSU, 97 points, 9 commits, 3.33 avg rating
2. Alabama, 32 points, 3 commits, 3.66 avg rating
3. Georgia, 27 points, 4 commits, 2.50 avg rating
