Asked JC in another thread, but interested in your thoughts if any...

Davon Durant is an ILB rated #5 in state and graded 90. I've never heard of him (not that that means anything), and there's no information on the system. Is it a grade issue, exposure issue or just under the radar? Is he someone USC is evaluating? It seems he's more highly regarded (or graded) than Turner and we need ILBs.

Devaris Brunson - similar questions above though I understand no SC offer given our OLB board. Surprised he doesn't have other offers absent grades being an issue though as our state's top 10 normally have 2-5 major offers by this time of year.

Mike Williams and Michael Hill - thoughts on timeframe and status?

Carl Lawson - Were we ever in on him or was he Auburn all the way? Assuming they have the shaky season it seems upcoming to them, if he were to open it up would we be interested or are we filled up at DE and the only others we are considering are the NJ boys?

Vonn Bell - article says SEC or Texas - no interest in SC, as he's only a state away. I would think more so than Tennessee anyway.

Elite 11 - Have the Elite 11 selections been made as I saw it says Goff was invited. Do we know who all it is (and does it include Mitch, Olson and/or the kid from PA?

Larenz Bryant - It looks as if he's not far off of 5 star status, and would be a huge pickup. It seems we've been a leader or close for awhile, though he was just offered by 'Bama. How do you see this shaking out, and is there a timeframe for when? Anything in particular working for/against us?
