[Hollywood870]

Steve Witfong, Director of Recruiting @24/7 has him coming to U of A. He's announcing at 10am on the 15th, so we'll know one way or the other I guess.

[ricepig]

He said its down to Ark, Aub, and miss st

Visited MSU this weekend.

[PorkRinds]

Well, Thursday won't be a last minute spot to fill, but I don't hold out much hope for him.

I didn't realize Thursday was when he was signing.

Well, he said he was, lol.

Auburn lock, then...

[Pig in the Pokey]

We're gonna land this fish, boys! We have the playing time. Told you guys that Jonathon Nance scholly will pay off in more ways than 1!

[Hollywood870]

Oh Juco's sign early. So we may get him this week?

JUCO's can start signing on Wednesday.

I hope so. Too bad Hayes is probably going to UGA

Yeah, I think we needed him in a worse way, but I won't turn down an outstanding 4* WR.

[The_Boot_stops_here]

Well this would certainly be a big time pickup

[CallThoseHawgs]

RD just did an article on him and it quotes him saying we are leading http://dlvr.it/MsLr6N

Won't believe it til he commits.

[jjdlc]

Is he an early enrollee?  We have a nice group coming in in January.

[imtad16]

Yes, he will in enroll in January.

[Hollywood870]

This guy has 3 years to play 3. Would be nice. Big time on paper.

[jjdlc]

Doubly nice then.  Keeping my fingers crossed.

No doubt

Requires a subscription to read. Guess it may be free after he commits somewhere.

Seems odd that the LSU offer is not commitable as some are saying. All of the "momentum" seems to be in our favor based on recent comments from the experts. We haven't had a tall wr like him in a while. Would be nice to have him and kolian on the field together next year.

No subscription needed. Just need to make an account on the website which is free.

I have a free account with them. It's still locked.

Same here

[Pig in the Pokey]

i have no account and it is unlocked for me.  just answered the survey question. delete your cookies if you need to.

confirms what i heard from my friend earlier. Here's the most important parts 1) Hogs Lead, also miss st and the barn are the 3 finalists. lsu is out. 2) Martin, 6-4, 225, 4.37

[Pig in the Pokey]

"I jumped 7-2 in the high jump and I'm a big explosive person," Martin said. "I'm 225 pounds and 6-4. I'm good in and out of my breaks. I'm a real smooth route runner. I take the ball at it's highest point and I can run by a lot of DBs." -brandon martin

[Pig in the Pokey]

I am excited because this was my 'pet guy' in this class that looked like a long shot but is a big time guy that we had a chance with. He is cool and he loves Arkansas coaches and he knows where the playing time will be. This guy is Reed with 50 extra pounds on him.

[colbs]

I'll wait till he signs before I get too excited.

[HoneyNuttPetrinoos]

Noticed he posted on twitter that his decision will be life changing and CBB was the only coach who rt it. Hmmm! Seems odd to me.

[songofthesword]

Lsu is loaded at wr and its not a position of need.  Plus they don't want to scare the hs wr they are on off by bringing in a juco

[RedyorNot]

Basically just says Martin is down to us, MSU and Aubbie as of Sunday night after also considering LSU. Said AR is still his #1 school even after visiting MSU, and CBB and Smith are the key reasons why. They keep it real, don't sugar coat things and tell you exactly what you need to do to get in the League. He can also see himself coming in and making a big impact.

Yeah. 24/7 shows we have 15 on campus but 5 of those are either SRs or not on campus (not sure why they are showing Kendrick Edwards) and another 4 of those are Walk-Ons.

[parallaxpig]

another crystal ball for Hogs

[trphog]

Ragnow stays & Martin signs, 2017 could be a pretty special year on offense.

[redleg]

That's true. But if the D doesn't get better, it won't matter much.

Wow!  Way to take a positive and turn it into a negative - randomly.

Strange comment.

elaborate, please...

You want him to link every thread in Hogville?

that's up to him.  I didn't set any stipulations.  Of course, he used the word "lately" so that would seem unnecessary.

"For the most part, Gulf Coast's signees had already made their decisions public. Only receiver Brandon Martin, who signed with LSU out of high school and later briefly committed to Auburn, remained uncommitted. The 6-foot-4 receiver opted to wait and sign Thursday with his family at home in Monroe, Louisiana. He told the Sun Herald he'll sign with Arkansas over finalists LSU, Auburn and Mississippi State.

"I felt like it was the best fit," Martin said. "It's official now; I'm just going to sign tomorrow."
