CaneHunt '14: QB Update | Cornwell steals show in Dallas

4/8/13: QB David Cornwell participated in the NFTC and the Elite 11 Regionals in Dallas this past weekend. And he put on a show.

On Saturday, David flashed very strong skills at the Elite 11 regionals at Valley Ranch. For his work, David earned an invite to The Opening. On Sunday, Cornwell displayed his huge physique and matched it with the skills to go with his size. He drew instant comparisons with the Steelers’ Ben Roethlisberger. One talent evaluator made this assessment…

“Big, strong-armed and physically superior to others in this class. Possesses the size and athleticism to surprise you when things break down. In what may be a down year to some degree at QB, it is easy to see why Cornwell is high on most college programs' boards."

CaneHunt '14: ILB Update | Vince Jackson

4/16/13: ESPN Recruiting Nation reported today on ILB Vince Jackson's unofficial visits this past weekend to Alabama and Auburn. While at Alabama, Vince received his offer from Coach Saban. Upon returning home, Jackson had this to say...

"When the Florida native returned home, it was clear the two schools made an impression.

“Those two kind of stand out amongst the schools that I’ve been to,” Jackson said. “I like schools like Alabama, Auburn, Texas A&M and Oregon, but I don’t really have a top group.”

Jackson has also been to both Miami and South Florida and says his next trip will likely be to Florida State."

UPDATES:

4/12/13: Miami offered OLB prospect Tyler Cook from Murieta, California. Tyler is rated 83 and is ranked the #68 OLB by the 24/7Sports Composite. Tyler may be a hidden gem with great size and speed (4.51 reported). That will not last for long. Here’s what 247Sports said about Cook earlier this week…

[247Sports] “One of the hotter prospects in the West in the past few weeks has been Vista Murietta (Calif.) linebacker Tyler Cook.
The talented linebacker comes from an athletic family which has contributed to his talent.
"My parents both played water polo in college and they are both over 6-foot tall," he said "Coaches tell me they love that athletic background. They also love my motor and my passion for the game. Those are some of the key things coaches are telling me."
Cook said he will continue to take more trips this Summer before making a decision on Aug. 8.”

CaneHunt '14: DT Update | UM offers Lamont Gaillard

Status: Offered
Chance: Fair

UPDATES:

4/18/13: Miami offers DT prospect Lamont Gaillard from Fayetteville, NC. Lamont is rated 94 and ranked the #10 DT in the nation by 24/7Sports Composite.

Curiously, Gaillard dropped front runner Florida today. This was out of the blue. Rumors have it he wanted a package deal with one of his HS teammates. Florida said NO. Other rumors have UGA and Miami battling it out. Will either school agree to a package deal. I doubt Coach Golden will go for that condition. I have a funny feeling we have another Collins situation. He wanted his brother in a package. We saw where that went. More drama?

Terry has played QB in HS but most project him at WR. However, not every school. In a ITU interview on Wednesday, he stated
“I know they’re ‘Tight End U’,” Googer said. “They told me what position they see me playing, it’s actually a combination of tight end and receiver. I’m open to it because I tried out tight end at a few different camps I went to this year. They want me, they think I could contribute, and that’s what matters.”

Googer also made a comment that he didn’t have to stay in Georgia, but he didn’t want his parents too far away. More to come…
