Yes, I saw him at the visit. I had forgotten his name. The kids called him PA during the visit. There was also a kid with a last name of Bey. Sorry, I don't frequent the recruiting lists, so I don't know all their names. 7 were there on the 18th and 19th:
Bey,
Brent Kerrington,
Jamie Harper,
Daniel Francis,
Donnie Gilray,
Martin Guidry,
and a kid named Jarome (I don't know if it was Ransom)


I do know that my son had a room next to ours in the hotel. All of the recruits were in there playing dominoes during a two hour break we had before dinner. We were supposed to be able to take a nap....NOT!!

The kids all had a great time and had a lot of interaction with each other as well as the coaches.

Is that Francis kid committed or not? No mention of him yet in the Morning News or in the Star Telegram. Is this a mystery to anyone else? What's the deal? Has he committed or not?
