Guys, I just got off the phone a few minutes ago with Jenkins (Ga.) wide receiver Tyrone Scott. He's been committed to Central Michigan since Oct. 27, but he's flirting with a few others, including Cincinnati.

The Bearcats are not new here. They offered back on Sept. 16. But they've stayed at least under the radar since Scott committed to CMU. I get the sense that he's not sold on CMU and a big part is the weather. He told me multiple times how he doesn't like the snow and obviously, they get a ton of snow in Michigan. But when I asked where Scott stands with the Chippewas, he told me, "I mean, those are my guys, at the top of my list. Me and the coaches have built a good relationship." But he also said, "Right now, I’m waiting to see what schools might knock on the door."
As y'all know, Cincy gets a fair amount of snow, even if it's not as much as Michigan. But assistant coach Joker Phillips is probably the biggest reason UC is a possibility here, though assistant coach Gino Guidugli has also been a recruiter here. Phillips made an in-home with Scott on Thursday and Scott told me, "Both show a lot of support, they keep it straight, 100 and straight forward. That was the real good thing about it."
Scott actually visited UC in October for the Central Florida game. He said he liked the vibe and the fan support, even when the game got out of hand.
The only schools in this right now are Central Michigan, UC and Georgia State. Again, Scott doesn't like the cold weather, so I think he's holding out to see if any ACC or even southern AAC or Conference USA schools offer. I'm not sure if they will, but expect him to wait til Feb. Honestly, I don't like UC's chances here. If he gets an offer I mentioned, he'll probably take it. Otherwise, he'll probably stick with C. Mich, but we'll see.
Full story coming.
