Prospects in the News

–Tionne Gray, DL, St. Louis, Missouri (Hazelwood Central HS), #477 nationally, #42 defensive lineman, and #9 in MO

Three-star St. Louis (MO.) defensive lineman Tionne Gray named his top five schools on Friday afternoon. Those teams are the Colorado Buffaloes, LSU Tigers, Minnesota Golden Gophers, Missouri Tigers, and Oregon Ducks. He is the No. 42 defensive lineman and No. 9 player in Missouri who also plays on the offensive line as a tackle. Gray said that he would take his official visits to all of his top five schools. However, the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine has Missouri as the favorite to land him, with a 79% chance of doing so. The Missouri Tigers are the team to beat right now.

–Ju'Juan Johnson, ATH, Lafayette, Louisiana (Lafayette Christian Academy), #225 nationally, #28 athlete, and #4 in LA

Four-star Lafayette (LA.) athlete Ju'Juan Johnson committed to the Colorado Buffaloes on Saturday afternoon. He is rated the No. 28 athlete in the class and the No. 4 player in Louisiana and chose the Buffaloes over the Florida Gators and LSU Tigers. Johnson was in Boulder last weekend and said he chose the Buffaloes because he wanted to be a part of a foundation and build something. He becomes the fifth recruit for Deion Sanders and a Buffaloe's class that currently ranks No. 12 overall and second in the Pac-12.

–JacQawn McRoy, OT, Pinson, Alabama (Clay-Chalkville HS), #339 overall, #25 offensive tackle, and #21 in AL

Four-star Pinson (AL.) offensive tackle JacQawn McRoy has over 20 offers and has named his top 10 schools. Those schools are the Arkansas Razorbacks, Auburn Tigers, Florida Gators, Georgia Bulldogs, Kentucky Wildcats, LSU Tigers, Miami Hurricanes, Ole Miss Rebels, Oregon Ducks, and Tennessee Volunteers. He is rated the No. 25 offensive tackle in the class and is the No. 21 player in Alabama. McRoy says he plans to take more visits in the spring and then make his five official visits in the summer, hoping to make his commitment before the start of his senior year. The On3 RPM has the Tigers as the current leaders to land him with a 30% chance, followed by the Razorbacks with a 26% chance. Auburn is the team to beat right now.

–Leonard Moore, CB, Round Rock, Texas (Round Rock HS), #410 nationally, #39 cornerback, and #69 in TX

He chose Notre Dame over the Arizona Wildcats, Arizona State Sun Devils, California Golden Bears, Colorado Buffaloes, Duke Blue Devils, Houston Cougars, Kansas State Wildcats, Missouri Tigers, Oregon Ducks, TCU Horned Frogs, and Tulsa Golden Hurricane, among others. Moore is the No. 39 rated cornerback in the class and the No. 69 player in Texas and was in South Bend last weekend for an unofficial visit with the Fighting Irish. He becomes the eighth recruit for Marcus Freeman and a Notre Dame class currently ranked second overall, behind only the defending national champion Georgia Bulldogs
