I know you guys want to know more about these recruit right now. But I've got to finish a baseball story after being on the road all day. Please bear with me and I'll have my thoughts on these guys later tonight.

For what it's worth, I've already spoken with Brown and Farrington. Two other sources confirmed the Riley commitment and eventual signing as well.

JP. No problem. Take your time. Just curious.

I know that it is always a good feeling not letting anybody be subjected to having to go to Tech---but why be happy with players that they wanted----oh the goooooood ole days!!!!!

Brandon Riley came in this weekend he was the third recruit with Brown and Farrington. All three really liked the campus and were hosted by La'Ryan, Colby and Raymone. The current players had good comments about the recruits and if they are committing on Wednesday they must of made a good impression for Coach Marlin and UL.

Playin: Riley's name was mentioned on the second page. Just wanted to point that out.

JP what is your opinion or others in the know of the 3 new players compared to the 2 players we had committed earlier. I am curious because the new guys were not offered scholarships but grant-in-aid and I am also curious why. According to rivals they were not offered by other programs.
