I think we can get Cam Robinson and Marlon Humphrey, but the rest are unknown right now. Lorenzo Carter is all over the map, Da'Shawn Hand needs to visit again this summer and an official this fall to judge his interest, Leonard Fournette has too much pressure from his home state and honestly would start from the get-go at LSU, and Matt Elam may get caught in the numbers crunch and just stay in-state with UK.Thanks for the link. I hope we get big Cam too. Looking at 247's top 10 we have really good shots at 6 of the top 10.
#1 Robinson
#2 Fournette
#4 Carter
#6 Hand
#7 Humphrey (lock)
#10 Elam
Elam will always have a spot.I think we can get Cam Robinson and Marlon Humphrey, but the rest are unknown right now.

We'll get Humphrey and the odds are good we get Robinson (though by no means guaranteed), but I think you are right on the others. Might get one or two of that group, but it's all really speculative at best.I think we can get Cam Robinson and Marlon Humphrey, but the rest are unknown right now.

Is Matt Elam our top target for the defensive line, or the most probable to sign with us...We'll get Humphrey and the odds are good we get Robinson (though by no means guaranteed), but I think you are right on the others. Might get one or two of that group, but it's all really speculative at best.
Regarding Elam, however, I don't think he'll get caught in the numbers crunch unless he really disappoints this fall. The staff has been very high on him, even if the self-proclaimed experts have viewed him in a mediocre light from time-to-time. If he keeps performing like he has in the past, and avoids off-field/academic issues, I imagine the staff holds a spot for him all the way until NSD.
My gosh, I hope so. Can't imagine any situation we would not take him.Elam will always have a spot.
Good to hear. Who you hearing the positive news from?Been hearing some positive news regarding Robinson. Never believe it until the ink dries, but there are good vibes.
The ink dries in January. He is an EEBeen hearing some positive news regarding Robinson. Never believe it until the ink dries, but there are good vibes.
Don't get me excited!!Been hearing some positive news regarding Robinson. Never believe it until the ink dries, but there are good vibes.
Elam I feel is a perfect fit at nose with his size.Elam will always have a spot.
For some reason, I seem to recall they've talked and have mentioned in passing it'd be nice if they got to play together at the college level but I don't think they've had serious discussions about it. Of course, I'm no expert and could be wrong.I know it might not mean much, but does anyone know if he and Fournette are friends?
I have a few sources.Good to hear. Who you hearing the positive news from?
