Read on another site or perhaps a twitter account that he is trying to generate excitement or drama for his choice tomorrow. Includes Missouri, Pitt, VT amongst others. Not much drama for most believe he has been signed, sealed and delivered to VT.

VT coach is probably trying to whore the kid out.
VT's HC is a tool, his sideline was a joke.
I wish I could say...
I'm guessing he'll look to the grad transfer market to maybe help plug a hole or 2.
Definitely a sleazy, crazy system. Schools are hypocrites, coaches at the blue bloods are dirtbags for overselling to stack the deck ... but the kids and their parents (or "handlers") bear some responsibility too. In this age in particular it is pretty easy for these guys to know the score of how many are stacked up against them at a certain place vs another and to be realistic at their odds of standing out. I guess there's a confidence/ego thing (and let's face it, a payola thing too for many *cough* Foster *cough*). "I don't care if there's 10 other 5 star guys at my position, I'm baddest ass on the field" and that's cool, you want a player to have confidence ... but it's a fine line vs. delusion.
That said it's always struck a little sad that year in and out, our best selling point for recruits is "chance to play immediately." One can always kind of finish that thought in one's head with a quote by Nick Marmo...

I don't wish him anything. Each recruit will succeed or fail on their merits. Recruits for the most part decide based on many factors. Some just don't make sense or seem logical. But it is on Pitt to recruit and land players who fit the need.
