They won't actually commit, or be confirmed as commits until the 13th, and more likely the 14th or 15th.

Umm, I think the whole Hawaii screwed us over debacle had a ton to do that, it wasn't that we were afraid to play them, just so we're clear.

I can't remember anyone doing that in recent memory. In any event you're still not going to hear about it til Sunday night at the earliest.

Agreed, I think the most likely committs to come will be Winston (He said he was basically just waiting for his visit to verbal), after him, any of the other 3 LBs could sign on (Taylor Hill, DeAndre Jones, and maybe Mike Balogun, the JUCO MLB)

Taylor Hill
Does he have any visits planned for other schools after his visit to MSU? If he doesnt then that would make for a possible commit.

Why does it have to be a "thunder and lightening" backfield? Anderson is in the mold of Ringer as well. Why not two fast/quick guys being rotated at tailback? The only heavier guy you have mentioned is Leggett.

Maurice Graham signed his LOI to go to Marshall today. My guess: he couldn't get into MSU or ASU, the other two schools he visited.

Yes, just like the Trevor Anderson that hasn't practiced all year. What's your point?

Yeah. We pretty much knew that he couldn't get into MSU due to the NOW strict transfer rules, I didn't realize that Arizona State was as bad for that though.

Too bad, he could have really helped fill the gaping hole at the end of the line. Let's hope that some of the un-named recruits that are coming in this weekend play TE. Koger anyone???

I linked to scout because scout shows visit dates without being a premium member, and I didn't feel like explaining. Do a little GD digging. It's not like it's hard to find.

I wasn't who asked. If you are going to waste time linking something. why not just simply say "No other visits"

Scout also says that he still has a verbal for WVU, thats just bad policy to think that kid will automatically stay.

Yep and that should be what is important. And back to the point, it is looking good as of right now for us to get a commitment from Taylor Hill based on him having no other planned visits (as of right now) and that first article on his page on Scout, saying he is taking the visit seriously and "looking to settle down"....

no one said they have to run a "thunder and lightening" backfield - it is just a good option to have
