Channing Tindall
LB Channing Tindall of Spring Valley has been one of the state’s biggest climbers in recruiting circles this year, and he’s not done yet.
Wednesday night he picked up another big commitment from Virginia Tech. Last weekend he earned an invitation to The Opening in July where he will compete against some of the best prospects in the country.
“I was left speechless,” Tindall said of earning is place at The Opening at the trials in Atlanta. “It’s amazing to know how my hard work has finally paid off and I’m seeing success in my future. It let’s me know I’m going down the right track and I need to keep grinding and do what I do best. I was able to close ground pretty well and break down. I think that’s one main reason I got invited.”
Tindall has been involved with his track team this spring and that’s taken up a lot of his time and limited his visiting opportunities. He did get to USC for a practice recently and had planned to return for the spring game Saturday but he won’t be able to make it. He wants to see several schools this summer like Notre Dame, Penn State, Florida, Georgia and NC State.
Tindall said he he hears from USC every day with contact from Will Muschamp and Coleman Hutzler.
“They’re whole thing is building a culture and strong foundation in South Carolina,” he said. “They talk about how Sindarius Thornwell and PJ Dozier stayed how and how they’ve made it to the Final Four. Standing up for your hometown.”
Tindall has been favoring USC and he said that has not changed. He’s also growing fond of Florida, Auburn and Georgia.
“I have to get down to the other schools because I haven’t seen them really practice,” he said. “I’ve been to South Carolina’s practice before and I’ve gotten to interact with the coaches and look exactly how they coach their team. I haven’t done that with the rest of the schools so I’m trying to get there and learn everybody before I really make a decision.”
Tindall said Alabama also is in touch with him. He’s not hearing from Clemson at this point after drawing earlier interest from the Tigers. He’d like to make his decision before his senior season.
