you don't officially visit a school if you are not interested.
I agree with this.
Not necessarily....Not all kids that are visiting a school are interested in going to that specific school. Lots of kids just what to take a fun trip to somewhere they haven't seen. Their pretty much treated like royalty, and usually have a blast where ever they go. Who wouldn't want to go on all of their all expense paid trips.
Some of them have never been out of their state before or have never even been on an airplane. Their interested all right... in having fun. Remember Dillion Baxter last year wearing his USC gear just about the whole time up here on his visit.
I agree with this. Free food, parties, girls, BB games or FB games, maybe warm weather. I mean really, who wouldn't take those trips?
I remember when June Jones was at Hawaii, he had strict standards in who they recruited and brought in for visits since they would have had tons of players who would taken a free visit to Hawaii without even strongly considering to play there.
Sounds like it is down to USC and Oregon. Looking through green colored glasses, I think it sounds like he is still favoring the ducks though. He is announcing on Jan 29th according to his twitter feed.

It will be announced at Autzen press conference tomorrow afternoon!

He's saying he's having a signing party, which doesn't sound at all like a commitment date. A little odd. Let's hope all the Oregon fans talking sh@t about USC don't influence him at all. Sometimes fans can just be idiots online.
Honestly, Devon is starting to annoy me...I really wanted this kid early on in the process, but I'm starting to get sick of his games he's playing with us when earlier he was making comments about being ALL Oregon and talking to current players like he's a Duck but yet now he still says he's wide open and we aren't leading...this kid better be as good as advertised or else he's wasted a lot of our time during this process...

How has he wasted your time? He's just a kid that is enjoying the recruiting process. I don't think that everyone would do it exactly like he is but I don't think he is doing anything unusual or malicious.

Completely agree. Best thing is to not follow recruits on Twitter or Facebook and then take things personally when things don't turn in Oregon's direction.
Anyone see Wall's post about how Eugene sucks because it rains all the time. Kid sounds brainwashed. I honestly think weather, as crazy as it sounds, does play a difference in Cal/UO recruits.
Look at Blackmon's fairly recent tweet:
@D_BLACK12: Man I need ya honesty, how much does it rain in oregon?
