Last week Pit landed NJ RB Sharrif Harris. Of course, another target in NJ, Evan Rodriguez chose WVU. Just something to note from this article about honoring High School Heismans, about that choice.
It was a special day for Rodriguez and for Harris. Both Heisman honorees also made their college intentions known on the same day – Rodriguez to West Virginia and Harris to the University of Pittsburgh. Incredibly, the two just might have ended up as teammates at Pitt, if it wasn’t for the Pitt coaching staff insisting that Rodriguez play linebacker at the school.
Rodriguez plays and wants to continue playing Safety. I guess they envisioned putting his speed in the linebacking corp like Tommie Campbell.
I’m positive your second comment is the correct one. That kid is 6’3″ and 200 lbs, and still growing. I doubt there are any BCS schools with a 6’4″ or 5″, 225+ LB saftety on their roster. He will play LB or DE at WVU, he just does not know that yet, but RR does!
I thought RR was a very honest man… no?
What’s all this noise about Bo Williams? Does anyone know if he made a decision yet – and was PITT in his final four choices (Scouts.com had a subscription article I couldn’t read).
On the other hand, it could show a committment to being honest with these kids, even at the risk of losing them.
Any word on Bo Williams?
