Re: 2017 Recruiting
Will be interesting to watch UVA's recruiting this year with the new coach. My guess is that Ruffin McNeil will be doing at least some of that recruiting, which is a plus for the Hoos.Bob Green wrote:4* (ESPN300) Safety Damani Neal will announce on April 2nd or 3rd:

Re: 2017 Recruiting
Mike London remains a factor as he is now an assistant coach at Maryland. London is an accomplished recruiter.CameronBornAndBred wrote:Will be interesting to watch UVA's recruiting this year with the new coach.

Re: 2017 Recruiting
According to the Twitterverse, Charlotte Latin cornerback Melvin Rouse has committed to Duke. He is not rated and it appears Duke is his only offer.

Re: 2017 Recruiting
According to some emails I've received, some folks are saying Rouse "committed" prior to Coach Cutcliffe actually offering him a scholarship. A bit of confusion over this one...Bob Green wrote:According to the Twitterverse, Charlotte Latin cornerback Melvin Rouse has committed to Duke. He is not rated and it appears Duke is his only offer.
