College Football Recruiting 2012: The Top Uncommitted Recruit at Every Position
Many recruits have made their decision to commit to a school, but there are still good prospects up for grabs.
In a chance to reset the board and just give you an idea of who is still uncommitted and at what position, here are the top uncommitted prospect at each position.
For this, I'm just going to very quickly run through each position and name the top prospect there who remains undecided on his college choice.
These are all talented players, and if your school is looking to fill a certain position, this should be the first guy it kicks the tires on.
CB: Priest Willis
1 of 13Willis is a big corner at 6'2", 200 pounds, and he could easily grow into a safety. I think he prefers to stay on the defensive perimeter, and if he keeps his weight down, he has a chance to do so.
From Arizona, Willis has the loose hips and quick feet to mirror receiver releases off the line. He has the length to press and jam to re-route and can turn and run with anyone. His short-area quickness is so good for a big cover man that Willis can cover slot receivers.
LSU, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Michigan, USC, Arizona, UCLA and Arizona are schools I'm watching for this one.
FS: Vonn Bell
2 of 13Bell is a Tennessee-born safety prospect who plays in Georgia. He is a 6'0", 190-pound back end defender with all the tools to be an impact player at the next level.
Bell has great football instincts, speed, athleticism and ball skills. He comes out of transition quickly to close on the ball and has big hitting ability.
Bell can factor in the box vs. the run due to toughness, strength and ball location skills.
Ohio State, Tennessee and Alabama are my top three choices for him.
SS: Antonio Conner
3 of 13From Mississippi, Conner is a 6'1", 200-pound secondary prospect I like as a strong safety. He can cover tight ends due to his athleticism and speed but can also plug holes in the box vs. the run.
Conner plays with good competitiveness and does all he can to win football games. He knows how to stay disciplined and when to trust his instincts to make a big play.
Look for him to end up at Ole Miss, but don't count out Alabama, LSU or Mississippi State.
OLB: Matthew Thomas
4 of 13Thomas is an elite defensive prospect who comes from the Miami area in Florida. He's a 6'3", 210-pound OLB who can fit in a 3-4 as well as a 4-3.
Thomas has the speed and pursuit quickness to chase as a Will OLB, the athleticism and strength to play Sam OLB and the pass rushing ability to play OLB in a 3-4 defense. His versatility to be deployed in various schemes makes him a wanted man on the recruiting trail.
Florida State, Alabama, Miami, USC, Louisville and Georgia are schools I'd watch out for him.
MLB: Mike Mitchell
5 of 13Mitchell is from Texas and has off-the-charts athleticism, speed and instincts. He's 6'4", 220 pounds, and he plays like a heat-seeking missile on the field.
Mitchell is not shy to insert himself into run alleys, take on blockers with toughness and thump ball carriers. He can get to the edges of an offensive line with good range and quickness to stop perimeter runs and can shuffle and drop quickly into coverage.
I think Florida State, Texas A&M, Ohio State and Oregon are just a few schools to name that may want Mitchell.
DE: Tim Williams
6 of 13At 6'4" and 230 pounds, Williams has great length for the DE position. He can play on either the weak or strong side and hold his own.
He shows a very quick first step, can jump on top of blockers getting out of the stance and can convert speed to power then bend around the pocket to finish quickly on the passer.
Williams flashes anchor strength at runs coming at him and can chase from the backside.
I think he will end up at Miami, LSU, Florida State, USC or Alabama.
DT: Montravius Adams
7 of 13From Georgia, Adams is a 6'3" DT who weighs over 300 pounds. He has the potential to be a dominant interior line defender in college, thanks to great snap quickness and athleticism.
Adams also has good strength when he plays with sound leverage and has gap-penetration ability. He can fight blockers well with quick hands and is a playmaker.
I think Auburn, Clemson, Florida and LSU could be the focal schools right now.
OG: David Dawson
8 of 13From Michigan, Dawson uncommitted from the Michigan State Wolverines last week and is looking at other schools. At 6'4", 285 pounds, he has solid snap quickness, strength and agility.
Dawson plays well in a phone booth, can hit moving targets as a pull or trap blocker and can get to the second level.
I have a feeling that he will end up at Florida before it's all said and done.
OT: Laremy Tunsil
9 of 13Tunsil goes 6'6", 295 pounds on the field and hails from Florida. He's a great athlete and has the potential be a starting LT once he improves his strength.
Tunsil has easy movement in his athleticism, quick feet, agility and balance. He's a dancing bear on left side and can mirror rushers in space.
Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Florida State and Ole Miss are the core five schools that have a chance at getting him, in my opinion.
TE: Ricky Seals-Jones
10 of 13Just for the purpose and circumstances of this list, I'm listing Seals-Jones as a TE. While I realize he likely wants to stay at WR in college, TE could be his destiny because he's already 6'5", 230 pounds as a high school senior.
His athleticism, solid speed, quickness, ball skills, length and strike zone are all remarkable.
Seals-Jones is going to give SEC defenses fits, as he's down to LSU and Texas A&M.
WR: Robert Foster
11 of 13Foster is out of Pennsylvania at 6'2", 190 pounds. Explosive and sudden, he can climb on top of defensive backs quickly, then separate at junction points with smooth athleticism and quickness.
Foster is a dynamic RAC player with running back-like instincts.
I think this race is truly down to Pittsburgh and Alabama.
RB: Alvin Kamara
12 of 13Kamara is moving up my board, as the 5'10", 195-pound senior could be the second coming of Brian Westbrook when the latter was in his hey day with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Kamara doens't have very many weaknesses in his game. He has blazing speed, good vision, instincts, quick feet, deceptive power and receiving ability and can also hold his own as a blitz pick-up guy.
He has a chance to be a special football player, and I think he will sign with either Georgia or Alabama.
QB: Luke Del Rio
13 of 13Del Rio is committed to Oklahoma State, but Greg Biggins of Scout.com is reporting that it sounds like Del Rio is rethinking that commitment.
Del Rio is a 6'2", 195-pound signal caller who plays in Colorado. His father is Jack Del Rio, the former USC and NFL LB who is now the defensive chief for the Denver Broncos.
Luke doesn't have a cannon, but he does have solid arm strength and accuracy. He is also a good decision maker.
He's a QB you can trust to put your offense in the best position to score points.
