The recruiting cycle is currently the most hectic it will be all year as some of the Nation's top recruits close in on their decisions. Every weekend is a massive recruiting weekend as the top programs around the Country host tons of recruits weekly for official visits. With recruits getting another close look at their potential schools, they're making decisions which are shaping the recruiting rankings.
Each fanbase is most concerned about which quarterback recruit will be their programs future cornerstone player. On Wednesday Night, one of the top quarterbacks in the Country made two fanbases feel better while another two will need to look elsewhere.

In narrowing his recruitment down to two programs, Duckworth cancels two of his official visits meaning that Florida State and Ole Miss will need to look elsewhere in this recruiting class.
On3's Industry Recruiting Rankings list Landon Duckworth as the 61st ranked player in the Country, the 6th ranked quarterback in the class, and the 4th ranked player out of Alabama. At one point in time, Landon Duckworth was committed to South Carolina but, since he reopened his recruitment some of the Nation's top programs have made their move.
Recently, On3's Steve Wiltfong predicted that Landon Duckworth would commit to the Gamecocks once again but, Duckworth is yet to announce a decision. Duckworth recently took his official visit to South Carolina and will visit Auburn this weekend which could lead to a decision being made sooner rather than later in favor of one of the two SEC schools.
