Cootlumbia radio discussing his decision to play at IMG Academy his senior year. They stated multiple times during the conversation that he is currently committed to USuCk. Mentioned how much trouble the staff may have keeping him committed. I don't see where he has committed to any school. They must still be on pain medication from Saturday night.

He hasn't committed to them. I would say FSU and UF have a better chance at landing him than USCjr. We probably have a better chance the way our DLine has been playing, the fact that our DLine coach just won assistant coach of the year and the way we have been pumping Dlinemen into the NFL in the past few years.

Lit means in fire, live, very animated atmosphere. A lituation is a lit situation.
Im sure he was referring to the crowd noise and atmosphere. But hopefully he wasnt just throwing around the statement All IN. That holds a little more weight.
Do we have any hard commits at IMG already? Maybe that help sway him?

I heard the same thing, and he said several times he was a commitment. These guys really don't keep up with what's going on. Any minute they'll go into a 30 minute discussion about private school league high school football, seriously I've heard it before

If he was a silent commit, then how would these jack legs know? That is why you make a silent commit. So, nobody will know but you and the coaches.

2 things I'd like to know...
1 Who got him to decide to go to IMG?
2 Who's paying the $72K tuition?
Don't give me the BS about corporate sponsorships.
That's 73 LARGE son!

IMG always scholarships about half their roster. They're an odd mix of rich dentist's kids receiving "elite athletic training" - which I suppose they actually are - and 4-and-5-star blue-chip prospects, almost all of whom are scholarshipped.
Elite players from a lot of different sports go through Brandenton. A lot of the old USSF - United States Soccer Federation - kids went through Bradenton, back in the day, like Landon Donovan, and even some current members of the national team like Aron Johanssen went there. Used to be it was the only high-end training for certain sports in the country.

My granddaughter played against IMG several times in Basketball when she for The Rock(another private school). Most of her team was on scholarship from other countries...This is the trend in state of Florida.

Xavier's mom might move to Gainsville. If that happens he's going to be a Gator.
