'07 GA ATH Vance Cuff (Georgia signee)

He grew up a big Florida fan, so i wonder if an offer from them would change his mind about who is favorite is? There is a good story on him over at the Florida scout site on the front page.

In that same article he says that if Florida offered, that would put them as his leader. He also says he thinks he will get an offer from them.

Cuff catching recruiters eyes

MOULTRIE — Vance Cuff had a fine junior season for the Colquitt County High football team, using his speed and versatility at cornerback, wide receiver running back and on special teams.

And while he played somewhat in the shadow of teammates Orion Ponder and Dontrell Johnson, both of whom received honorable mention on the All-State team, Cuff has now become perhaps the Packers most sought-after player.

An impressive performance at the combine in Gainesville, Fla., in May and a 4.35 clocking in the 40 have opened the eyes of a number of the nation’s top programs. He has three scholarship offers already.

Florida got to see Cuff up close and personal at the combine and was impressed. And Cuff told GatorCounty.com that he has been a Florida fan since he was a youngster.

And while the Gators appear to have the inside track, Cuff also is considering Ohio State, Georgia, Mississippi State and Auburn, where he was impressive when he took part in a team camp there last month.

Colquitt County has not had a football player sign out of high school with a Division I school since Nate French went to Auburn in 1998. Brian Jordan played four years as the snapper at Georgia, but earned his scholarship as a walk-on.

Ponder, Johnson, B.J. Baker and Derek Illian also are likely to be scholarship candidates by next February’s national signing day.

And while Cuff and Johnson will give the Packers at least two outstanding backs, watch out for the play of the Coffee High secondary.

The Trojans have four players —Quam Hancock, Kareem Burch, Stacy Williams and Rashad McCrae — who are considered having Division I potential.

He is a very good player. You can tell that he has good speed in his film. I can see why he has offers from Ohio State, Auburn and Georgia. I believe he just earned an offer from Florida recently as well so things look good there. I think the Florida staff would want to bring in Cuff, Black, Scott and Turene as the CB recruits.

Correct, I also heard that he earned an offer at FNL from Florida.

Should be interesting to see where he ends up. I think it depends on how hard OSU keeps after him, because there have been recent developments with corners that could be considered high on our board...

He is ours if we have an offer out there. He LOVES the Buckeyes, and already considers himself a Buckeye.

But is the interest mutual?

I would love to have Cuff in this class. Hes a 4* talent with 4.35 speed and it shows on his film, however you would have to think the staff has some corners higher on the board that are still in play...

By Dave Biddle...Cuff says Ohio State is his current leader because of the CBs they turn out and the coaches. Georgia is closing in as his #2 choice and he is also still looking at Auburn and Tennessee. He has offers from Ohio State, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina and Illinois.

A very interesting, very pro-OSU article from BN's best reporter. I still have a hard time believing that Vance will leave the south (and I agree with SNG11 that the Buckeye interest may not be entirely mutual), but if he schedules an official visit, then he should be considered a legitimate possibility. One to keep an eye on....
