I forgot about Deboskie, that was a recent development.
excuses, excuses.:biggrin: The other two are listed with offers and in the database they are listed as RB's. Granted that doesn't mean much, may be offers as DB's for all I know. Good for Darius getting B10 offers, hope he steers clear of AA though.

Scout $

Michigan has NOT offered but Darius does hold offers from Tennessee, Cincinnati, Miami Ohio, West Virginia, Eastern Michigan, Virginia, Northwestern, Illinois, Akron, Indiana, and Air Force.

I don't subscribe to Scout so I can't read what exactly is said there or if there is a more recent update to the situation, but from my understanding a Michigan coach visiting X told Darius they were offering and it was just a matter of the official letter being mailed out.

Michigan gives that impression to a lot of recruits, while officially keeping them on the backburner until needed (ie McGuffie getting away). There are other RBs this year who claim Michigan offers but technically haven't been offered according to their insiders.

From what I understand, Louisville has been Darius' favorite for some time, so I'll be interested to see if he ends up commiting there, and if so how long it takes now that he has an offer.

Ashley, Craig zeroing in

St. Xavier football coach Steve Specht says he thinks RB Darius Ashley and FS Fred Craig will commit to colleges within the next week.

Here is the latest Rivals story on Ashley.

Specht says he believes Louisville has been the leader for Ashley, with Virginia also high on the list. With Craig, Specht said Stanford is high on his list but offers have come from far and wide including UC, Air Force, Duke, Indiana, Louisville, Michigan State, Nebraska, Vanderbilt and West Virginia.

"I'd think they may commit within the week, but with these situations you don't really know," Specht said. "It can change quickly."

Update: Darius Ashley

Cincinnati St. Xavier running back Darius Ashley hasn’t played in a game since spraining an ankle on Aug. 25. His team is ranked as high as No. 1 nationally.
Ashley could return this weekend. But despite not being able to play, The Cincinnati Enquirer high school blog reports that Ashley is nearing a college decision.
The 5-foot-8, 190-pound Ashley has narrowed his list of schools to Louisville and Virginia and will visit the latter this weekend. Ashley told the paper that Louisville has a slight edge for now, but Virginia was the first school to offer him a scholarship.
Ashley ran for 1,600 yards and 28 touchdowns as a sophomore and followed that up last season with 1,500 yards and 20 TDs.
