No surprise, VT makes the cut:

Louisville and Michigan State are mostly window-dressing here. This feels like a Michigan-VT battle, and I have a hard time judging how seriously he's considering UVa at this point. He plays it pretty coy when I ask him, though it's no secret that they were once the (perhaps even prohibitive) favorite.
It probably comes down to the Hokies really impressing him on a January official visit. There's no question that he loved the Michigan visit, and that the Wolverines will pursue heavily - they've missed on a couple OL targets since that time, and still have a decent need at the position. It won't be about the Hokies showing they want him more (whether or not they do), but rather demonstrating why it's the best fit for him.
