Amazed by the crowd turnout for the spring game. Interacted with the current players and commits. Still says he is wide open with Illinois, Ohio State and USC being his top three in that order. Wants to commit before his senior season.

Should we read into his glowing comments about his visit, or should we be worried that we are not the leader after his visit with us?

If you are serious, the "glowing remarks."
Why anyone would expect him to name the team he is "commited" to as anything other than the "leader" in an interview would be beyond me. |

Official Recruiting Rule #12 states that it is good form to give glowing reports to all schools immediately following a visit.
Official Recruiting Rule #2 states that if you are not the leader immediately following a visit you are out of the running.
Howsomever, Rulle 22b states that if you have verbally committed to a school to which you are not committed in the depths of your heart you shall ignore rules #2, #12, and #17 (having to do with the wearing of jerseys) and take all appropriate actions to conceal your true intent.

He's been to OSU at least 3 or 4 times since his last visit to Illinois, I dont even know when his last visit was. He wants to visit Illinois to make sure that the reasons he committed to them in the first place are still the way he feels and thus, to see if he's still 100% committed still.
When he comes back from his visit to Illinois in two weeks, the reports after that visit I think will be telling b/c then he would have been to both schools within a relatively short period of time and will be able to evaluate thetn. |
