Whenever there is late-second drama you can probably assume he'll choose USC.

I was thinking Michigan State or Ohio State, but UM isn't dead in a ditch yet, it ain't over. Florida is still very much in it. Think any of the four could be it.

Honestly would be surprised if it was USC. His mother completely blew Carroll off on the USC visit and went on a shopping spree and Ronald didn't really connect with any of the other recruits. Could it happen? Yeah, but I don't think USC is really that in this.

I hope the kid is listening to the right people, and not someone like Jim Brown who could ruin him for life.

I think Jim got a bad rap on the #13 thing. Brown's mistake was speaking publicly based solely on what Clarett was saying. Once he got to know him and the situation more he changed his tune. At the end 13 didn't listen to what he told he told him either.

Doesn't sound like Rojo situation is like 13's. It seems people have Rojo best intentions at heart (even thought they differ on what that is) where Clarett's people only had their interest at heart.

I do know this though, that Ronald didn't want anything to do with Johnelle. Johnelle was seen as a joke by most high school coaches. IF MSU lands Johnson it's because of Dantonio. Had Johnelle still been in the picture Ronald would've never even visited MSU let alone potentially wind up there.

The point of the "hiding the letters" that is being put on the coaches is that they wanted HIM to go to Michigan because they favor Michigan. Not that it's true or false, but the reasoning behind it is that RoJo is a stud and they want their studs to go to Michigan.

Sending other players to MSU means nothing because they aren't as good as RoJo is supposed to be.

Again, his coaches didn't hide anything or try and steer him. Annese isn't like that for one, and quite frankly they didn't need to hide anything or steer him anywhere. Johnson was sold on Michigan from early on.

Well you don't know that the coaches didn't do anything for certain, and nobody is ever sold on anything in recruiting.
