1) Every high school coach I spoke to who was involved in the Richt camp the last few days raved about how well it was run. They loved the focus and attention of the coaches because they made sure to only have 8-12 schools per day. HS coaches respected that because it started and ended on time and gave Canes coaches the time to interact. Coaches that I talked to said they wished other schools used this format because it was much more under control compared to other places.
2) N'Kosi Perry was at camp yesterday and you can tell how much this staff likes him. Richt was LOCKED on every one of his games. His team was playing during the media session and Richt even positioned himself so that he could watch him during the interview, which I thought was funny. Perry's arm talent is very impressive in person. It's obviously difficult to get a great read on his complete game without pads on, but you can tell he is a gamer. Made some really nice throws on the run and gets nice zip on his throws. Anticipation and footwork aren't perfect yet, but he will be coming into a perfect situation to progress and learn.
3) Couple notes on Columbus kids I heard yesterday - Expect Josh Jobe to play this season at Columbus and then go off to a prep school for his senior year. As I mentioned, this will be his last season playing HS football due to his age. I've been told by people close to him that it's extremely unlikely he would be able to reclassify, so this is the best next option for him. Prep would be good for him because it would ensure his grades are in order before he signs.
4) Also, people at Columbus increasingly believe that Bandy will end up at Miami and flip from Oklahoma. Again, this could take some time, but Miami is doing a tremendous job explaining themselves here and the stage of Bandy being "offended" or whatever you would like to call it have passed. His unofficial visit with CJ Henderson last week was a major positive.
