Perhaps it’s low-hanging fruit with three of Fitzgerald’s four finalists representing in-state programs, but the Miami (Fla.) Columbus two-way star really enjoyed his LSU official visit and the Tigers pulled one of the biggest stunners of the cycle in landing fellow Floridian DJ Pickett last month.
Still, local Miami looks to have made up ground on recent favorite Florida State over the last few weeks. Fitzgerald says FSU is pushing for his commitment hardest ahead of the Aug. 17 decision date.

2. Joshua Moore’s recruitment is far from over.

The recent commitment to Florida picked the Gators after a pair of visits to Gainesville, but the other in-state powers aren’t relenting. In fact, both Florida State and local Miami are in contact with Moore nearly every day.
He also revealed that the on-field product will weigh heavy in the final decision ahead of National Signing Day. The ball remains in Florida’s court.
