Willie Allen has several intriguing offers early in his recruiting process. As he inches closer to 20 offers, Allen has so far received them from LSU, Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Florida State and, most recently, Texas. Kentucky could be a sleeper choice, as he recently was on campus for an unofficial visit, per 247Sports.

Allen has visited LSU several times, and with New Orleans a little more than an hour away, will proximity play a key role in Allen's recruiting? Look for Allen to have an interesting spring.

Bleacher Report Analysis

A long, tall lineman, Allen impresses with his first step off the ball and his lateral movement (24/25) in passing situations. He has good strength (24/25), and he is athletic and coachable. In fact, the idea of him being coachable may be what springboards him to all-conference status early.

Committed to Baylor

Baylor currently has a national top-12 recruiting class for 2016, and offensive tackle Patrick Hudson is a big reason why. The 5-star offensive lineman decommitted from Texas A&M and gave his pledge to the Bears in July, roughly a month after taking an unofficial visit to Waco and seeing the campus.

Hudson is a solid Baylor commit, but he has other offers from Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and LSU. Additionally, he is getting interest from Alabama. Texas A&M is still a team to watch, as well.

Bleacher Report Analysis

Hudson is a lineman who already has college-level size and strength (15/15). He plays with tenacity and aggressiveness, and he lines up every play with the mission of dominating the defenders in front of him. He's a big athlete who overpowers his competition using an explosive first step. Hudson will be a major contributor in college.
