The Friday news dump is real as it was reported by Brandon Huffman that class of 2021 defensive line target JT Tuimoloau is ready to shut things down, not taking an official visit to Alabama and will consider a group of four schools that includes Ohio State.

Tuimoloau, a five-star out of the state of Washington has not been one to do many interviews so the news of him coming out and changing his plans is a big deal and got us ready to jump out and do a podcast to put things into perspective.

Now, we are not sure where JTT is going. We feel that JTT may not even be sure where he is going. Does this mean that Ohio State, the favorite going into the visits is still the favorite? Does Oregon, the school that received the last visit is the favorite? Or is it Washington? Or USC?

We are not sure, but we talk about it at length as we try and sort things out with you on this recruitment.
