Still not much apparently happening with football recruiting that is making news. I believe the next dead period for contact with recruits is a week away.

Vaughn Carraway, a CB/WR prospect from the Reading, PA area has Michigan leading for his services, but Pitt is still a factor.

“Pittsburgh is up there too,” said Carraway, who is ranked by Scout.com as the No. 24 prospect on the East Hot 100 team. “They offered me about four weeks ago. I really like the coaches there and the campus is really cool. My cousin, Sam Bryant (safety), went there and he’s said it’s a really cool place to go. I went to their junior day and really liked everything, but I’m not sure if I’ll take an official visit yet.”

Carraway says he wants to make a decision before the start of his season. BC, Tennessee and WVU are also interested in him. Scout.com has him as a 4-star recruit and Pantherlair.com lists him as the 15th best player in Pennsylvania.

He’d be a nice get, but is not a pressing need since he seemed more interested in being a receiver. Heck, unless the players are linemen (O- and D-) or linebackers, my excitement for any prospect is muted.

Rivals.com is spreading out the release of its 5-star rankings and will culminate with its top-100 list after Memorial Day. They’ve released 20-14 and 27-21. So far, only one player is from Pennsylvania: Offensive Tackle Lucas Nix, the brother of Pitt redshirt freshman Nate Nix.
