Monday Football Recruiting Recap

The Kentucky Wildcats got a pair of commits from big time wide receivers, one from Kentucky the other from Alabama. Josh Forrest hails from Paducah, Kentucky and always thought he would go to Kentucky playing basketball rather than football. The 6'4 220 pound prospect could play either tight end or wide receiever when he arrives in Lexington. Earlier in the day the Wildcats received great news as Theodore high school's Darien Thomas verbally committed to Kentucky. Thomas, 6'2 191-pounds, also received interest from Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, and LSU. Thomas and Forrest became Kentucky's fifth and sixth commitments of the 2011 recruiting class.

Martay Mattox has decided to end his recruitment and verbally commit playing for the South Carolina Gamecocks. Mattox is projected as a duel-threat quarterback and stands in at 6'1 185-pounds. He said that it was the new academic facility that made his decision to choose South Carolina. He joins wide receiver prospect K.J. Brent as the only two South Carolina commits for the 2011 recruiting class.

The North Carolina State Wolfpack received great news monday when Gainesville (GA) high school prospect Thomas Niles verbally committed to play for head coach Tom O'Brien. Niles is a defensive tackle prospect and currently stands in at 6'2 260-pounds. He also had offers from Central Florida and Tennessee. He is the Wolfpack's second commit for the 2011 recruiting class.
