noticed that Jabari and Doran Grant are playing on the same White team for the UA game...be awesome if one of them commits to the bucks before the game and persuades the other one to join as well :)

Jabari states he is intending on still visiting this weekend at UF. I see this as a benefit, as it will eliminate the official visit to be used by the new coaching hire at a later date.

Obviously, it shows that he is seriously interested in UF (which I think is evident already), but it just lets one less opportunity for the presumed new-hire to make his case to Mr. Gorman.

Call me a glass half empty type of guy, but I'd be happier if the reporter who got this bit had a gator hat on when he got it......if the guy had an Buckeye had on, that would make sense, and Jabbar is telling him what he wants him to hear....just sayin'

Rivals$--Muschamp makes an impression (Florida)

Jabari says he is very impressed with Florida but cannot name a leader between the Gators and Buckeyes.

He visits UF, is then interviewed by a UF guy, and says he can't name a leader, and you don't see that as a positive for us? I've no idea where he'll end up, but that seems like a positive enough update from my vantage point.

> Monsignor Pace defensive back Jabari Gorman (5-11, 170) cut his list down to Ohio State, Miami and Florida earlier this month before Randy Shannon was fired and Urban Meyer stepped down in Gainesville. He said Wednesday night while Ohio State still leads, the Hurricanes and Gators remain in the hunt. Gorman said he plans to announce his choice at the Under Armour All-American Game on Jan. 5.

"I'm sure I'm going to talk to him soon, talk to him this week and have a meeting so I can get a feel for him," Gorman said of Golden. "I'm hearing great news about him. I like the fact of how he turned Temple's program around. That means the coach knows what he's doing. You want to be around a coach like that."

Gorman said even if he picks a school at the UA game, he will still visit UM in mid-January and could end up changing his mind by National Signing Day.

"Nothing is final until signing day," Gorman said. "I've been feeling OSU. But I've been having doubts about it too. You know how Miami is, they come at you hard. Coach Hill has been on me.

"Stephen Morris is recruiting me as hard as the coaches the do. Me and Stephen have always been real close since my ninth grade year. We always talk. Me and him always used to be together as far as doing the right things on the field. I know what he tells me at Miami is no lies. I can trust him."

Our success rate as been very bad with getting out of state kids that announce at these all-star games. Probably what sammy was getting at and I'm with him, I'm hopeful but I wouldn't get my hopes up for Gorman.

Class of 2011 safety superlatives - ESPN

Best run supporters

What we look for: These players attack the ball carrier downhill, while keeping leverage on the football and disallowing the cutback lane. The best run-support safeties are physical tacklers in limited space and sure open-field tacklers who know how to use the sideline as an extra defender when closing on the football. They need to have the strength of an outside linebacker to maintain outside force and be able to run the alley with sharp angles.

Jabari Gorman (Miami/Monsignor Edward Pace)
Gorman would fit into a "most physical" category as well. He drives hard on the ball with an explosive first step out of his pedal that allows him to get downhill quickly. The 180-pound safety is a collision tackler who can force a turnover on any given hit, but is also reliable in the open field. He is scheduled to make his college decision at the Under Armour All-America Game.
