All rankings per 247Sports Composite

1. #4 WDE Stephen Herron Jr. - UM Verbal but Wiltfong predicts he will flip to Standford. If he is not firm on his commitment then I hope Brohm is talking to him. After all he goes to Trinity.

2. #13 ATH Milton Wright - Top 5 O$U, Alabama, Purdue, Kentucky, Georgia. Most think O$U but it sounds like we have a shot here.

3. #9 DT Jacob Lacey - ND Verbal

4. #11 OG Bryan Hudson - He says VT is in the lead. Sounds like ND is right up there. Not much talk of Purdue in that discussion.

5. #29 OT Tanner Bowles - Purdue has offered, but I cannot find Purdue in the discussion.

6. #32 SDE JJ Weaver - Back in AUG 2017 he said UofL was his "Top Choice," but since then he has visited Purdue and it seems like we are right there in the running for him.

“Louisville's coaching staff communicates with Weaver on almost a daily basis. So does Purdue's, and Weaver notes that the Boilermaker coaching staff is full of connections to the city of Louisville. Tennessee's new coaching staff is pushing hard for Weaver, and he plans to visit Knoxville next weekend.”

7. #33 WDE Shawnkel Knight-Goff - We offered in JAN 2018. Not much out there. Does anyone know if we have a shot with him?

8. #8 APB Rondale Robinson - Wiltfong says Duke over UK for his recruitment. (He also has Bryce Kirtz going to Duke)

9. WR Demontae Crumes - UofL Verbal

10. #66 RB Aidan Robbins - He had a positive visit back when we hosted UM but I haven't read anything since then indicating where he might be leaning.

These are just my opinions. No inside information.

Even with his Trinity connections. Herron would be absolute long shot. I think he is wanting to go with a Blue Blood. If Brohm could get him, we would definitely have bookends with Karlaftis. Tanner Bowles has blown up recruiting wise in the last couple of months. He has gotten some big time interest from big time programs. I think it would be a long shot with him too.

I think we have a good shot at Weaver, Knight-Goff, and Wright. I don't know anything about Robbins. With Wright, I think our shot depends probably on David Bell. I cannot image that Bell and Wright end up at the same school, since they are similar style receivers. It sounded like a month or so back that we had a chance with Robinson, but it sounds like that has cooled to what you have down from 247Sports.

With the Spring game in a couple of weeks, I am hoping some of these recruits will be there, since our Spring game is earlier than UL for sure. I think it is earlier than UK too, but that one I am not 100% sure on.
