An Auburn mod from On3 has put in a Texas prediction for '26 five-star S Zelus Hicks of Carrollton, GA.

There are rumors out there that he's making an early decision because he will be reclassifying to 2025 and graduating early.

I wonder what the statistics say about players who commit to a school during their Junior year actually ending up at that school.

I'm definitely not a fan of a kid committing a year before he signs, but it's right on time in Hicks' case if he's going to be a 2025 recruit.

OKay then.
I like this.

I mean it does not hurt if hes 2026.
Its just a HS kid so young is going in awfully early. Some are very mature. I think the majority are just not to the stage where they can reason very well.

Finebaum has totally nutty call in people.
Its like a psychiatric hot line.

[pgardn]

I wonder how many of these freshman start.
Wingo does not start and is ranked awfully high?
He is freakishly good. By the end of the season its possible he is our best receiver.
