Benn Sets Announcement Date

[irishnd31]

I saw a heading on Irisheyes. com that says "Benn sets decision date. I do not have access to this site to read the article, and was wondering if anyone has access or has heard when his announcement date is. Any feedback is appreciated.

He said he will announce on his birthday.

September 8th.

Top schools are ND, SC and Florida State. He likes Florida State.

“I’ve always liked Florida State. I grew up on Florida State"

Miami and Maryland round out his top 5. He'll visit SC, FSU and Miami. Weis wants to get him back to ND. So far ND is the only school he's visited.

So, is he not as much of a "lock" as everyone seems to think?

I still think they're getting him. He's already made multiple visits to ND as I recall and will probably start as a freshmen in 2007 at Notre Dame.

I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Would make for a good weekend with his commit and the thrashing of PSU.

Naturally, I'm worried about USC. He's really been talking them up lately, which could be legitimate, or an attempt to earn more spotlight. He also has a couple of visits ahead of him to fun places like Miami.

But I like this guy a lot. He is sincerely interested in not following the path of other DC standout athletes, as he mentioned in one of his interviews on Rivals. He's a guy kids can look up to.
