The pick: Georgia
Why: "He ain't going to USC. He's gonna pick Georgia. He loves Georgia. I got the insider touch with this."
Why: "I'm going to say Texas. Actually I may change that to LSU because that is his fit. Shoot, Texas or LSU is what I'm saying.
The Pick: Oregon
Why: "Oregon is doing good things out there. It could be Oregon or USC, but I say Oregon closes it out.
The Pick: Miami
Why: "I really can't tell because he has his mind everywhere. I kinda want to say USC, but what are the other options? Actually, I could see him in Miami. He's got that Miami swag."
The pick: Wichita State
Why: "I know too much and I'm not putting him out there like that."

The pick: USC
Why: "I probably say USC because everyone is just going there since coach Lincoln Riley is there."
The pick: Alabama
Why: "'Bama, because it's 'Bama. Just because it's Alabama. It's Nick Saban. I don't think he will pass that one up."
The pick: USC
Why: "I think he will end up at USC just because of the foundation and team they are building over there. This is a total guess though."

The pick: Notre Dame
Why: "Notre Dame. I'm saying Notre Dame because he would just fit in well there. He looks like he would go to Notre Dame."
The pick: Notre Dame
Why: "I feel like that was his first biggest offer. I've been around people who have talked about it and that is just where I feel like he is going to go."
Why: "I feel like he may be looking at Georgia right now. I could also see USC because of the new coaching staff and I feel like he may want to explore and see how that is going."
