Doug Doughty reported about Baron on Friday. See the linky.

UVa chances boosted On McConnell visit - Roanoke.com

Thanks! I rarely read Doughty unless someone links one of his articles.

We know from previous info that Wright, Smith, and Conte are going to prep. Will Taraschke and Baron do the same or are they just going to grayshirt?

Who's your guess for the possible sixth player who may also prep or greyshirt?

That article sure makes them look tight on the scholarships next year. Better make them count.

As the numbers stand right now, that's probably true. But, attrition from transfers, injuries, illness, academics, discipline/legal along with prepping/grayshirting invariably pushes that number into the 20-23 range.

Hearing there may be a pretty big shake up as to who greyshirts/preps right now. The numbers are being cruched and some things have changed but it might be for the best...

I saw on TSL that Conte is enrolling in the summer now, and Tarashke as well (I think he was always planning to)

Very interesting. I'll be looking forward to seeing how that shakes out.

I will find out about Conte. I know his family was pretty happy with the FU program and what they were going to do there.

Great. Fwiw, I actually saw him last weekend and he doesn't look like he needs to wait a year to get in the program. He looks ready to play now!

I have confirmed that Conte and Tarashke are reporting for fall camp and will not prep from the most reliable of sources.

So who will be prepping instead?

I am kind of glad these guys are not prepping. With offensive linemen being an area of need, it is best we get these guys in here and not risk losing them to another school as we have others who have prepped.

+1 Hohum.

Also what's the latest on the whole Rodriguez / Clemson thing? Are they still waiting for the ruling from the NCAA?

From what I understand these guys will not be going to scout team, they will be reporting with the rest of the line.
