Will try and post social media reactions and information from today's camp and visits at Tech.
Unranked Guard but lots of people impressed with his tape.

She is a kicker from the 757, unranked but kicking sites have her as a middle of the pack kicker.

Very cool thanks for posting What uni combo is Payoute wearing?
Reading through more, looks like a lot of special teams kickers and punters were there and some preferred walk on spots were offered out also.
Shepps has a damn boot on her. It'll be interesting to see where she lands.
Pritchard picked up SU, UT and VT offers this week. An article from the VT perspective and from the UT perspective.
A note on schedule:
I can probably understand this quote, but still, it's a little troubling:
Finally, my favorite note about Pritchard, on his Hudl page his self description reads:
Question is this a 2 day camp? I am seeing a lot of Tweets about guys on campus today.
How do you properly embed a tweet?
Switch twitter to desktop mode, then click share, embed.
top right carrot, click that, there's an option for embed tweet. Copy that link and post it
There should be an up arrow inside a half box, click it and open in a browser. Then once it opens on a web page you click the down arrow in the upper right corner and click embe, that brings up another webpage where you copy the link.
I do that and it looks like this
If you are on a phone you don't need to go to the desktop version. Click on the tweet while on the mobile site, click on the down arrow in the top right, click embed tweet and it should bring up a new page, scroll down to where it says copy code click that, it should automatically copy it all and then you can paste it here.
According to Watkins at 247 Payoute committed today.
Holy crap Seriously? thats 2 top 5 VA Recruits!
110% COMMITTED 🦃🔸#HokieNation #Exitlight pic.twitter.com/B7ESzt5DM4— Jaden Payoute 1️⃣ (@JJPayoute_1) June 10, 2018 " target="_blank">
Hey I did it sort of
Damn right you did!
Anyone with any info on this? We are the only ones with Warmer on 247.
Only one CB from a while back for SC as well.
I know, I know, the numbers always work out. But how many WRs can we take? Already have Payoute and Bowick. Robinson, (please) is a slot, Hazel is another target.
Numbers aren't going to work out this time. Not sure we can afford more than 3 wr's in Payoute, Robinson, and Bowick with guys like Carter and Mike S potentially slotting there as well.
So Pinckney isn't a take for us now?
Not sure honestly since this Payoute thing developed so quickly. I just don't see how we take 3 wr's and 4 athletes in a class of 15 or so. It's a shame if we can't because there still some really talented players left on the board in Pinckney, Hazel, and Hellams
LA do you know if AA leaving the program opens a new Scholarship for this class or are we holding that for the next class? Or do I not quite understand how it works?
Would open up for this class
Looks like Pinckney has moved (slightly) ahead of Robinson in ranking. Looks like Robinson lost a star, anyone know why? Jacoby is definitely bigger and if he picks us, might now be the better take if we had to choose between them? I dunno, hate being so tight on schollys when we actually get some momentum...
Robinson is regarded as one of FUs top targets. He wants to commit, he gets in.
Espn updated robinson's Ranking and it dropped him down a point.
His big announcement was his top 4... Michigan, Bama, Georgia and the good guys...
Hard to believe he wouldn't be a take for us with that final four, but I do understand the number crunch this year.
The turkey is bigger than the Iguana and the tasmanian devil, and first in line. I feel like he knows where he is going, but the jun part is very cryptic.

Thats who I actually thought committed, but it was Payoute..not disappointed but Vance Vice is going to have a MONSTROUS oline to work with. I hope we start running the ball more to help protect our young defense.
I like this kid.
pair with
Tweeted less than 30 minutes apart, very close to after the Kelly commitment
If we land Kelly, Payoute, Simonds, Jones, and Pinckney in a 2 week span that would be quite the about face from the prior 2 weeks.
Yeah not gonna happen haha.
Interesting. Do you think we don't have a shot with any of them or just that they all won't be making a decision that soon? I have speculated that Simonds has been the silent commit. It seems like we have about a 50/50 shot with Adarious Jones though I will admit I'm not sure who we are prioritizing on the DL. It's hard to tell what to think about Pinckney with our number crunch but it seems bizarre he wouldn't have a committable offer from us yet has one from Bama, UGA, or Michigan.
I reread your post and I think I misread it the first time. I thought you meant we would land them all over the next two weeks, which obviously will not happen. I think right now we are the likely landing spot for all of those guys if they were to announce today. I also think that Pinckney will get squeezed out unless we lose a current WR/ATH commit like Bowick or Carter.
I know nothing about Jahad Carter... Where do the coaches like him?
Is there still smoke around Bowick to ND? Did his visit there happen yet?
This is the #1 WR for 2020
The thought of plucking a 5* right out of PSU's pocket is what dreams are made of. Lets get it done!
