So someone tell me about this Justin Field's recruitment, a quick glance on 247 makes it seem like a two horse race between FSU and UGA.



I'll give it a shot, but Tigerpaw1 could probably detail his recruitment way better than I can.

- Commits to Penn State as a Junior because they were his only major offer.
- Junior film starts to circulate and the big dogs come calling.
- He attends a few camps this past Summer and blows people away with his passing and running skills.
- Decommits from Penn State.
- The Opening rolls around and he puts up the most dominant performance in the camps history.
- Auburn, Florida State, Florida and Georgia emerge as the front-runners for his services.
- He attends the Alabama-Florida State game as a guest of FSU.
- He takes an OV to LSU and the corndogs piss themselves with glee.
- Spends the next two weekends in Athens and dines with Kirby.
- Decides to OV to Alabama this weekend.

Another thing of interest regarding Fields is he plays for Cam Newton's 7 on 7 team and admits he grew up an Auburn fan.

This does not make me optimistic we could land him

I haven't seen any of his stuff yet. I've checked out some Trevor Lawrence even though he's going to Clemson. Gotta check out some Fields.

That pretty much sums it up

I think it's 1.) UGA 2.) FSU 3.) AU right now with us being a long ways away from UGA. That Clemson game might have torpedoed our chances. Unless his recruitment lasts the full season (which is possible but I don't think likely) & AU's offense continues to improve and Fromm cements himself as starter, then maybe. But that's a lot of ifs...

I will say he and his dad are very professional about all of this. I don't think he would visit Bama just cuz. They want him to go somewhere where he can be ready for the NFL. Ya'll have a pretty strong pitch for that and I imagine they are listening
