I think he's certainly the guy as far as who ends up as the quarterback of this class for a couple of reasons.

For starters, the Arkansas legacy aspect of things is hard to ignore, and if the staff can land him then it sets up a massively-talented in-state group in 2024. He's also being targeted by a trio of SEC-West foes in LSU, Mississippi State and Ole Miss, and letting his kind of talent leave the border doesn't seem to be in Sam Pittman's M.O.

If, however, you get a surefire commitment from a guy like Michael Hawkins or even Mabrey Mettauer then I would be surprised to see them turned away.

As far as a commitment date goes, he told me Friday that he'll be committing in February or March.
