Jared Curtis wants to play right away, and Vanderbilt's Clark Lee extension is the big variable.
1. Wiltfong Whiparound: College Football Recruiting and Transfer Portal Podcast focuses on late-November recruiting decisions before the December 3 signing period. 2. Josh Newberg hosts, Steve Wiltfong reports the recruiting intel, and their sources matter because both are tracking live movement on signed and unsigned prospects. 3. The episode asks which programs can close the final weekend of the season with commits, flips, and late momentum. 4. Jared Curtis remains the No. 1 quarterback whose recruitment still depends on whether Clark Lee signs an extension at Vanderbilt. 5. Steve says Curtis and his family keep telling Georgia staffers and commits that he will sign with the Bulldogs on December 3. 6. Vanderbilt's case rests on Diego Pavia's eligibility ending after the season and Curtis wanting to play in year one. 7. Georgia added Penn State linebacker commitment Elijah Littlejohn and is trending for Rivals 300 offensive lineman Tyreek Jemison. 8. Four-star safety Blake Stewart also visited Georgia again, and Steve says Miami, Vanderbilt, and Georgia Tech are still involved. 9. Steve's strongest Georgia prediction was No. 1 running back Savion Hiter, after a visit to Athens changed the momentum from Notre Dame. 10. Oregon's big weekend centered on Chris Henry Jr., who still has ongoing dialogue with Ohio State and Oregon. 11. Steve says people who spent time with Henry Jr. in Eugene feel good about Oregon signing him in nine days. 12. Oregon also wants to keep building a receiver room that already includes Jalen Lot and Messiah Hampton. 13. The Ducks hosted several 2027 visitors, including Rashad Streets, Bodie Sparrow, Caden Henderson, Will Mental, and Sam Nagata. 14. Oregon offered Chandler High quarterback Will Mental after a season with more than 3,500 passing yards, 33 touchdowns, and only four interceptions. 15. Oklahoma is trending for Jonathan Hatton Jr., a back who was once committed to the Sooners before flipping to Texas A&M. 16. Steve says Oklahoma's season, DeMarco Murray's relationship with Hatton, and the chance to be the lead back are all part of the appeal. 17. Virginia Tech's recruiting surge is tied to James Franklin arriving with staffers and former Penn State personnel such as Andy Frank, Brett Arnold, Aeneas Hawkins, Rashad Elby, and Caleb Tyler. 18. Franklin's Blacksburg debut drew a strong response from recruits like Troy Huhn, Rosa B. Lubinidis, Matthew Lamar, Pierce Peterson, Benjamin Izuca, and Thomas Wilder. 19. The tone is fast-moving and source-driven, with Wiltfong giving prediction updates, visitor reactions, and program-by-program breakdowns. 20. College football recruiting followers who track late flips and signing-day drama will get the most from this episode.
