Let's hope the reporting is accurate as it brings much needed good news.

so why did he call JJ and Reinebold to confirm? And why was he still taking visits?

no BIG CONGRATULATIONS are in order-they sealed the deal on one of the best rising prospects in the State. There wasn't much competition when he committed. This is the type of deals that have to be closed
Now if we can just get McNeal on the field next year-I think we might give some Defensive Coordinators some heartburn with the speed and athleticism we can put on the field:
Emanuel Sanders
Aldrick Robinson
Darrius Johnson
(pick one)
Shawnbray McNeal

This is good news. Now let's get Porter. What city is NIU in anyway?

Being a little cynical. As I mentioned several times before, I had every confidence this staff was going to fend off last minute rush jobs from others. I went by Reinbold's reputation and Jones' selling the future of the program.
He's a great looking prospect. Hope he lives up to the publicity when he arrives. Of course, we thought De'Von Bailey was all that. Look how that turned out.
P.S.
And I'm behind. Who is this Porter kid? I really don't know. I'll do a check on rivals.

he would tie Johnson as our second highest rated high school recruit. Hasn't lost a game in two years at Destrahan in Louisiana. Still a little small reportedly at 6-0, 200 but tremendous speed-fast enough to run an interception back 97 yards in the 4th Quarter to clinch the Lousiana High School State Championship. Porter is his teammate-had about 6 Interceptions this year and ran 5 Kicks back for TDs.

Thanks. I also read up on Porter's teammate Parker. His list is all over the place. He's committed to Tulsa but it's soft. His interest in SMU is low but he's visiting?
Did he come here because he wanted a weekend getaway?

there's a free report on him on Scout. We are very much in the picture. About at least 4 of these kids are going to have to bear down to qualify. Welcome to Big Time College Football. Think the McConnico kid also needs some work-and there are reportedly others.
