DB Troy Pride of Greer was offered by Ole Miss Wednesday. The former Virginia Tech commitment also has offers from Tennessee, NC State, Notre Dame and North Carolina as well as Marshall, Appalachian State and Mercer. He’s not heard much from Clemson and he’s had no interaction with USC.
Pride has visited Notre Dame officially and is looking at Tennessee, North Carolina and Virginia Tech for other possible official visits. “I haven’t really thought about it too much,” said the Shrine Bowl selection who is still involved with the playoffs. “There’s no favorite. I’m evaluating the entire offer list and making sure I make the right decision for my life.”
Clemson defensive backs coach Mike Reed talked with Pride last weekend and he was expecting to hear more from his this week but as of Wednesday he had not. As for USC, Pride would be interested in hearing from the new coach once he’s in place if he decides to look him up.
“I do want to see what they are going to do” he said. “The fact that they have a new guy coming in it’s going to be interesting to see how they are going to progress. I’ll be interested depending on who it is. Or even if they come at me before they get a head coach, that will be fine.”
Pride is not graduating early so he’s not going to rush into another decision. “If I feel a place is suitable for me and my entire family is behind me with it, then a decision could come, but I’m not going to really rush a decision.
Pride is still hearing from Virginia Tech and his Hokie recruiter was at his practice Tuesday.
