2015 LB Sherrod Pittman deciding Monday
07/29/13
Monday afternoon update: After working the phones today and speaking with people close to Sherrod and his recruitment, it appears he will pick South Carolina tonight despite Florida being his favorite school and first choice. When he announced Sunday that he was ready to make his decision, I assumed it would be for the Gators like most people. He has visited Gainesville several times and told one of our correspondents at FNL that UF had the edge (see article below). He even wore a Florida shirt to his team meeting this morning.
But I've since been told that he does not have a committable offer from the UF coaches because they are still in the process of evaluating him and their linebacker board for 2015. There's a possibility they could pursue Pittman later on, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him flip to Florida if that becomes the case. But at this time, the staff would not accept his commitment.
