Landry landed on Omar Bradley the Tiger which became more of a distraction and a spectacle than it was worth.

This weekend wasn't the massive recruiting weekend everyone hoped for as LSU had 300 recruits in attendance but, the Tigers got blown out by Alabama making it a more somber mood. Winning a massive game like beating Alabama is massive for recruiting as recruits love to jump on board and ride the momentum of the program. The commitments you really want are the ones that commit when things aren't great which indicates they'll stick around.

Despite Paul Skenes looking the part of a Major Leaguer, the Pirates decided to let him start the season off in the Minor Leagues. Despite the delayed start, Paul Skenes quickly burst onto the scene as one of the best pitchers in baseball never hitting that Rookie wall you often hear about. This week has been an incredible week for Skenes as he goes from Guest Picker on College Gameday to a Finalist for the National League Cy Young Award and the National League Rookie of the Year.

This weekend was far and away LSU's biggest recruiting weekend of the year as the Tigers hosted 300 recruits and their familes. The Tigers had everyone on campus from Bryce Underwood to DJ Pickett to Harlem Berry and to targets like Jahkeem Stewart and Dakorien Moore. The one massive commitment that wasn't on campus was four-star wide receiver commit Derek Meadows. Meadows hasn't been on a recruiting visit to Baton Rouge since committing and he was at Michigan last weekend.

This weekend as Florida State fell to 1-9 on the season, Mike Norvell started his shakeup of the Seminoles Coaching Staff. Mike Norvell fired his offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Alex Atkins, his defensive coordinator Adam Fuller, and his wide receivers coach Ron Dugans. Changes needed to be made at Florida State but, as Florida State's recruiting class has been picked apart it may have not been the best time.
