Jenkins headed to the Gators?

The North Carolina State Wolfpack is starting to discover the cornucopia of football prospects that is the state of Georgia after snagging their fourth Peach State pledge of the 2012 class. Jarnor Jones of ML King High School announced that he would play defensive back for the Wolfpack next season. He had previously committed to Middle Tennessee State. NC State has also commitments from running back Shad Thornton (Liberty County), defensive back Niles Clark (Lassiter) and wide receiver Charlie Hegedus (Lassiter). ...

Score 44 member Jordan Jenkins, a defensive end from Harris County believed to be the top prospect in the state, returned from his third visit to Gainesville to check out the Gators. Jenkins was on hand in Athens for the Auburn game and reportedly moved the Dawgs up his list, but a third trip to Florida could mean the Gators will land the stud defensive end. ...

In this week’s GPB TV game of the week, more than just Robert Knemdiche will be on display. Grayson has several linemen that have drawn interest including OG Fred Zerblis (Arkansas State) and OT Garrett Gorringe and DE Sebastian Rice (Georgia State). Colquitt County’s center Bryce Giddens has committed to Southern Miss. ...

It is never too early to think about recruiting and Landmark Christian’s Sam Dobbs, though just a freshman, can already start thinking about recruiting. At 6-foot-4, 188-pounds, Dobbs plays all over the field but will likely line up at wide receiver at the next level. Dobbs will play in the 2012 Eastbay Youth All-American Bowl this January in an event that could jumpstart the recruiting process. It is not outrageous for teams to look this early at a prospect as the Georgia Bulldogs have already received a commitment from Apalachee running back Stanley Williams before the 2014 began his sophomore season.
