Twitter is buzzing with "big news coming".  What do y'all think it is?  Bates? 

Speaking of Bates, I didn't realize what a prized recruit that kid is.  His offer list is equally impressive as Hurd's.

I don't think it is Bates.  Both he and Bill made it pretty clear that it would be a while before that decision is made.

Treyvon Paulk just committed. I wouldn't consider that to be huge news, but hey, a body in pads is a body in pads.

Not yet rated by Rivals, rated 3 stars by Scout. 

Decent offer list at this point. 

We need more than one running back in this class, and with Hurd committed we likely aren't going to get another 5, and likely not a 4 star at that position.  I'm impressed that this kid wasn't scared away by Hurd.

And it looks better when you think about how much some of those teams like to run the football: TCU, Georgia Tech, WVU, Wisconsin . . . all teams that want to run the ball 40+ times a game if they have the personnel to do it.

Apparently Paulk shared time at RB last year with a senior. It'll be interesting to see what kind of numbers he puts up this year.

GVX says that he is a 4 star composite.

Either way, things continue to cook on the recruiting front.

Yep, he played behind the Peyton Barber, who signed with Auburn.
