Off the market, going to WV. I wonder if Rich Rodriquez jumps ship at the end of the year if he'll stay committed.

We extended an official offer to him yesterday. He says he'll look around before making a final decision.

Josh is officially back on the market. According to Rivals, Jenkins is no longer a WVU "soft verbal". Also B&G no longer lists him as committed to another school. As to Josh's opinion of ND, here it is “Notre Dame, their education is amazing up there,”. Where have we heard that before!

Jenkins is quickly becoming the Joseph Barksdale/ Jeremy Finch prototype for the 2008 recruiting class. He committed to WVU, then de-committed, and now according to B&G and Rivals he is once again a WVU Solid Verbal, Scout still lists him as "soft". I should say so, because he just spent the weekend at OSU and this is the latest comment out of his mouth:

"I'm still committed to West Virginia, but Ohio State is one of my other top choices."

If that is a "Solid Verbal", then Greg Little must have actually signed his LOI with Notre Dame instead of UNC. Jenkins will not be solid for anybody until he signs his LOI next February. In any case, it seems doubtful that ND would be pursuing him at all, because he is a poster child for CW changing his recruiting policy for the 2008 Class.

This is almost funny, and slightly irrelevant because Josh Jenkins will almost certainly never wear an ND uniform, but B&G has once again taken down Jenkins as a WVU commit. B&G had Jenkins listed as a WVU recruit from November until February 15, when they took him off their committed list, only to relist him as a WVU commit on February 28, and now today they de-listed him from WVU again. Maybe they finally read Jenkins quote after visiting OSU the last weekend in February.

"I'm still committed to West Virginia, but Ohio State is one of my other top choices."

Jenkins is now listed as a no commit on B&G, a WVU "Solid verbal" on Rivals, and a WVU "Soft verbal" on Scout. As I said almost funny, but meaningless to ND. It should be interesting to see if Jenkins can outmatch the 2007 champ, Joseph "the University of LSU" Barksdale for the most comical recruiting saga of 2008.
