Jaeden Jackson – Connecticut vs. UCF

“I had a great time at UCF today. That place was rocking, and atmosphere is different. They call it the Bounce House and it bounces. It’s different there; I love it. Coach David Shumate (dir. of player personnel) made the visit happen along with coach Cole Heard (asst. dir. of recruiting). I got to chat with coach Travis Williams, the DC. He told me he is responsible of my recruiting area and he's got me on his radar. He also told me it's good I can play defensive end and as an inside defensive lineman, that makes me be able to be moved around. It was a great visit and I love their stadium.”

Robbie Roper – Charleston Southern vs. Georgia

“Amazing electric game day atmosphere. Love the fans. They have a crazy fanbase. Some of the fans knew who I was. During the fourth quarter, they had “The Red Sea.” I had a great time. I talked to coach Kirby Smart and Coach Dell McGee (RB) and other coaches after the game. I LOVED IT!”

Bryce Hudson – Charleston Southern vs. Georgia

“Georgia was first class from the moment we arrived on campus for the visit. Coach (Matt) Luke is a very easy person to talk with. He’s personable and seems genuinely interested in his players. The atmosphere was electric, as it was my first time at Sanford Stadium, especially when JD scored. I hope to be invited back soon. I had a great time.”

AJ Hoffler – Michigan State vs. Ohio State

“I loved the game day environment I got from there as soon as I walked into the stadium. It felt like home, and this is the first place I can say that for. And getting to know coach (Larry) Johnson (DL) in person was awesome. He’s a great dude with high energy and definitely knows what he is talking about!”

Sammy Brown – Michigan State vs. Ohio State

“It was really good to get up to Ohio State and be able to meet all the coaches in person. Watching the game, the linebackers, as well as everyone else, just played on a different level; and it shows. They’re playing fast and disciplined, and that’s a direct result of very good coaching from coach (Al) Washington and others.”

Kyeaure Magloire – Wofford vs. North Carolina

“From the start of the visit, UNC told me what they’re looking for in a recruit and showed me what wonders they have to offer. During the blowout, the crowd exploded numerous times and carried out their game day traditions with much energy. Not to mention the beautiful area that is Chapel Hill. All in all, a great visit! I also got the chance to meet and speak with the Dre Bly (CB), which of course was an experience in itself!”
