Yeah, in a closely-guarded display of dramatic theatre, PB strolls out with Darrell Arthur, mentioning that while it's football signing day, he thought he'd do JT a favor and bring along another signee.

Wouldn't that be nice?

Yes, there should be one, maybe two names tomorrow that haven't been posted here to this point. Neither is a high-profile name of someone who has been committed elsewhere, but at least the "more likely" one was a pseudo-sleeper who was extremely productive at the 4A level. I'll come back with a name if I get actual confirmation today.

Hey, he is the grandson of Doak, which means we are charged by God to give him a scholarship as we are all descendents of athletes within three degrees of consanguinity.

PonyPride,

Are you talking about Kelvin Thompson, since I noticed that his school was 4A in one of the Rivals writeups on him. He would be a great catch!

Again, I don't have confirmation from the players themselves, but I'm now under the impression that we'll get one of the two. Sorry to be vague, but until confirmation, I can't report it. Stay tuned....

Nope. I don't know that he will or won't come, but his is not one of the names I'm hearing. (You're right, on paper at least, Thompson sounds like a talented player. I don't know where he'll end up any more than anyone else does.)

I realize that rivals puts him at a 2 star and 5.3, but no offers should tell you something. Intriguing prospect, but I always judge players by the offers they get, and if he qualifies and doesn't have offers, there is something going on?
