Ok it appears he is announcing his decision @ Crenshaw High.
Thomas said he plans to announce his choice at 5 p.m. tomorrow at Crenshaw High (there had been reports he would make the announcement at the ESPN Zone at L.A. Live).

I'll try to keep this to less than 90,000 characters... If Biggins is correct, I'll pull a red velvet cheesecake out and celebrate... I may need some green beer to wash it down with!

On second thought, a commit of this magnitude, to go along with what Oregon is already looking to sign, deserves something more along the lines of 18-25 year old Jameson's.

RE: The pic of Thomas with Snoop Dogg's son, this explanation was posted in an what appeared to be open discussion on 247.

"I come in peace from the SC board. Thought you may want to see the pic.

I'm the one that originally posted the pic. A friend of mine is in the music entertainment industry and has worked with Snoop's son. He is friends with Cordell on facebook, and he posted that pic today. My friend is also an USC alumni and follows recruiting, and emailed me the pic.

*The pic was posted today, but it was taken on Sunday night or Monday afternoon.

Either way, sounds like at the very best it will be a huge up-hill battle for our coaches and Mamba is all Duck as of now."

I'm actually starting to believe this. Kind of a weird feeling. Are the days of being used by kids like Pryor and Bryce Brown officially over?

Makes a billion times more sense especially if he's going to eb wearing a green hat.

He also committed to USC. Until he's signs don't really believe much of what I hear. It's just fun to read the rumors.

There was a 97.5% guarantee of getting Tajh Boyd before too. ;)

From ESPN Message boards

http://boards.espn.go.com/boards/mb/mb? ... aa&id=2483

"He is a counselor/mentor and knows Black Mamba. He doesn't follow recruiting but I told him about the rumors yesterday morning and asked if he could find out more from the horse's mouth himself. He pulled DT aside yesterday and asked him about the rumors. DT told him that it is a done deal. Oregon is going to get him the ball immediately in a Reggie Bush fashion and that is too hard to pass up. I was born, raised, and live in Pasadena, CA and work at Compton Centennial High School and always pull for the hometown teams, but make no mistake I am a die hard Florida State fan so I have no vested interest to lie. Sorry Trojan fans but the hometown legend is headed to Eugene. "
