<b>Recruiting Buzz:</b> Traditionally, the state of Georgia's football talent has ranked among the nation's best. It could be argued that Florida, California, Texas and Ohio are the only state's where better overall talent exists. Understanding that formula, the Seminoles have historically done well when reaching up to their neighbors to the north. In Eligwe, they believe they have hit a veritable jackpot. The outside linebacker ranks among the country¿s top 10 at his postion and has the combination of size and speed that coaches hope will help him emerge as a standout in future seasons.  Eligwe turned down four SEC schools, including Georgia.
