Gridironstuds.com member Lynden Trail has been offered by USC.

4T Ryan Hill 4.40

#1 LB recruit in the nation Jeff Luc has enjoyed his visits to Miami, Florida and Florida St. but is not naming a leader or a top 5. Says USC is recruiting him hard and that he will make decision before December because he plans to graduate early and attend the school of his choice next spring.

Miami Northwestern cornerback Khalid Marshall has been offered by LSU.

James Potts (American Heritage, Delray) Florida has just received 3 new offers. The 5’11” 190 lb. running back has received offers from Vanderbilt, Rutgers and Memphis.

Lamarcus Joyner was impressed with his weekend visits to Florida St. , Tennessee and Alabama. Reportedly a dead heat amongst those three schools and Ohio St. University of Miami recruiting him hard and still in the running, albeit outside of the top four.

Word is University of Miami’s Brandon McGee a top 2009 signee, who entered school early, clocked 40 times ranging from 4.19 to 4.26 during testing today. Needless to say this would be a record for Hurricane football.

Florida St. has offered Woodberry Forest, VA linebacker Aramide Olaniyan. As reported earlier, Olaniyan is a Duke Commit but this has not stopped Clemson and Florida St. from making their offers within the last week. I guess folks don’t have much respect for a Duke commit these days.

The University of Miami has made a scholarship offer to David Perry DE at University School in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Perry also has offers from Alabama, Florida, Florida St., Kentucky, Ole Miss, Oregon, Purdue, South Carolina, Tennessee and Central Florida.

The Greg Paulus college tour will make a stop in Syracuse.

Former high school #1 recruit Matt Barkley has surpassed Mitch Mustain in reps at USC’s spring practice.

USC is the latest school to offer consensus #1 recruit Seantrel Henderson out of Minnesota. The ridiculously big 6’8″305 Henderson now has over 30 offers. Henderson’s USC offer came over the phone directly from head coach Pete Carroll. Many feel that Minnesota has a legit shot at landing this top prospect.

Former University of Miami quarterback Robert Mavre has announced his final 5 of teams he’s considering transferring to. After recently dropping Michigan and UCLA from the list, he has announced that the final 5 teams are: Nebraska, Texas Tech, Purdue, Arizona St. and South Florida.

Despite being an Oklahoma St. commit, Sand Springs, Oklahoma QB, Johnny Deaton has just been offered a scholarship from Kansas St. Deaton passed for 1874 (11 tds) and rushed for 1,665 (19t tds) in leading Charles Page high school last year.

Good news for WVU fans. Quote from Ohio Safety and Gridironstuds.com member Latwan Anderson ” in love with west virginia cant wait to go back I love that place.”

Recruits reported to have been at the University of Florida Spring game on Saturday. Matt Elam, Demar Dorsey, Gerald Christian, Quinton Dunbar, Ted Meline, Ivan McCartney, Gideo Ajagbe, Travis Bell, Richard Ash, James Louis, Brandon Linder, Gio Bernard, Vinnie Mauro, Kembrell Thompkins.

Rumors are that Demar Dorsey has eased off of Gator commit because of the depth in the secondary, playing time concerns and the recent commitment of Jaylen Watkins to Gators.

North Broward Prep High School (Florida) RB and Oregon commit Ethan Grant has been offered a scholarship by Wisconsin.
