'12 AL DT Justin Shanks

[HSVol]

Considering there are no hints or chatter from the Oracle, no one should get their hopes up but a nice surprise would be welcomed.

 

[TideWarrior]

Prattville (Ala.) High School four-star DT Justin Shanks, who is the No. 10 DT in the country, is scheduled to announce his decision at approximately 4 p.m. The 6-foot-3, 295-pounder is considering Florida State, Tennessee, Alabama and Auburn.

What's your guess, TW?

It looks like FSU will get two top DL players from AL this year. Casher and Shanks.

He got quoted saying ""Its going to be a surprise" whatever that means.



I'm saying FSU or BAMA with Auburn being the dark horse. Who knows Tenn could be the surprise.

Vandy could sneak in here.

A non JUCO highly ranked DT...Danny O'Brien would fit the bill.

One of their DT pledges has grade issues so I can see Shanks going there so that they won't be left with just 1 DT on NSD if Goldman doesn't go there and the guy doesn't qualify

I read that about Stuckley this morning. Shanks is better imo...imo worry about the numbers later. Long way to NSD.

FSU is one of the hottest programs right now and makes sense why so many are jumping on board

Demarco McNeil is his cousin. Demarco is an intern with the S&C program. FWIW.

 

[I4Jay]

My boy told me he hears Shanks is indeed a take and it will be the Noles

 

[Ericvol2096]

Crap.

 

[ORANGE & WHITE]

I appreciate the info Jay but damn that's bad news...

 

[TideWarrior]

I see no surprise in that announcement unless he thinks it will shock people he is leaving the state. But neither instate school seemed to make him a priority.

Florida State: "It's just different down there from any college I've been to. The campus is a lot bigger. There are nice people down there, good people."

Tennessee: "They really need some help at defensive tackle."

Auburn: "It's close to home, a nice place and good people around there."

Alabama: "I've always been a fan of them. I always like to watch them play."

Gist of the article. Definitely didn't tip his hand
