- In terms of running back recruiting, Vanderbilt is expected to be in Little Rock, Arkansas to evaluate 3-star RB Damarea Crockett today. The 212-pound back told VandySports.com that Vanderbilt is one of his favorites along with Arizona State and Boise State, and he hopes to visit Vanderbilt next month. The Arkansas back recently had a strong showing at a NIKE camp, as he is a freakish athlete for a 212-pound running back.
Junior Highlights
- Vanderbilt target Peyton Aucoin has visited Vanderbilt and Texas the past two weekends. Following those visits, Aucoin said that Texas and Vanderbilt currently lead for his services, but he is also open to other schools. Aucoin is becoming one of Vanderbilt's top tight end targets, and he likes what the SEC school has to offer.
At Vanderbilt: "I liked the staff, and they told me how important I was to them and how I could make a difference," said Aucoin.
- 3-star wide receiver Eric Kumah recently put out a Top 8 and Vanderbilt was included. Others schools making the cut include Kentucky, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Maryland, Pitt, Virginia, and Virginia Tech. Vanderbilt offered the 6-foot-3 Virginia receiver earlier this month.
- Recently offered running back Tre Miller plans to visit Vanderbilt this summer. The physical 215-pound back has developed a good relationship with Vanderbilt defensive line coach Frank Maile, and he likes the idea of playing in the SEC. When asked about his fit into the Vanderbilt offense, this was his response.
"I have good speed and power. I can either out run you or run you over," said Smith.
- Vanderbilt will continue to evaluate Harriman's Treyton Peters. The under the radar offensive lineman has offers from Middle Tennessee, Georgia Southern, Western Kentucky, and Memphis. Along with Vanderbilt, Kentucky and Wake Forest are showing heavy interest.
- After recently picking up an offer from Northwestern, Ikenna Okeke said that Tennessee, Vanderbilt, and Louisville are the schools that stick out to him. He plans to narrow down his list of schools this summer. The Smyrna safety told VandySports.com that Vanderbilt would definitely make the cut.
- Vanderbilt offered 4-star athlete David Long last week. Several schools are recruiting him as a defensive back, but Vanderbilt likes him at wide receiver.
On his Vanderbilt offer: "They have a good engineering program and offer a good education that is matched with the ability to play in a great conference like the SEC."
- An outside linebacker prospect to watch is Virginia's Christian Brooks. Brooks has offers from Miami, Nevada, Virginia, and others. The 6-foot-5 athlete is the former prep teammate of Vanderbilt signee Justin Skule, and the Commodores are close to offering as well.
Junior Highlights
