Tigers to land in state 2016 OL?

Could the rich get richer? On the verge of signing an epic offensive line class the Tiger staff is already looking ahead to the next class. Apparently Dabo was recently in the low country to check in on Fort Dorchester OL John Simpson (6'4 290). Simpson is widely regarded as a 4* prospect by most services and is one the states top prospects. He was recently on campus for the CU vs. scar game and said, “It was a good show, I must admit,” he said. “But I don’t really know how to explain it. It was a great day. I didn’t expect for it to go how it went. I was expecting it to be real close.”
Simpson is currently weighing his options but is trying to make plans to attend Junior Days at several places and we're in the mix. "Right now, I know I’m going to Georgia. I haven’t made my mind up if I’m going to Carolina or Clemson, because they’re both on the same day, so I know I’m going to Georgia. I’m going to Wake Forest and I might go to Tennessee.”
24/7 has him as the #257 prospect and the #26th best OL. http://247sports.com/Player/John-Simpson-75843
Rivals has Simpson as a 4* recruit, #248 overall, #7 at his position, and the states #4 prospect.

As most of you know, we recently signed 4* OL prospect Sean Pollard of South Pines, NC. According to Rivals, Sean is rated as the 4th best offensive guard and the #191 prospect overall. (Info on Pollard: http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Sean-Pollard-157096;_ylt=Avpf5N19CeYntC0f4XRFBUFHPZB4 ) Signing big John Simpson could certainly help secure what is already a stellar OL in the making.

Pollard is a good player and a good kid. He would make a fine addition to our Fort Dorchester tradition (Byron Maxwell) and another great get in-state .

Bry, I never got an answer to my serious question.
Do you own a bakery or do you just bake for the heck of it? If so, can you teach me to make a mean red velvet or a coffee cake/streussel?

It's something I do on the side. I always made meals for friends/ family who were sick or in the hospital. I began to notice that folks always ate the desserts and pastries first. So I finally asked and they always said the same thing. Never thought I was that good at it. But every time I get invited to a party or function I get asked to make desserts ect. Two and two makes four and years later I just became known as the baker. Kind of a weird thing. Odd what having a sweet tooth and good taste can do for ya. I'll see if I can find ya a recipe for the said struesel. If I do, I'll tmail it to you.

That's awesome. I've always been pretty decent over a sautee pan or with one of mama's casserole recipes, but never could bake werf a chit. I wish I could. I'd save a lot more money on late night trips to Harris Teeter to get something for my munchies.

Fingers crossed. It's a big seller with the kids plus we make them in single serving sizes. Unfortunately Valentines Day is coming up so that sucks. Gonna be mass producing those stupid chocolate covered cherries and strawberries. FML.
