There are always concerns about any school, but timing alone (this is speculation on my part since I have not talked yet to any coaches closer to this recruitment) suggests that UK is the clear leader. It is one thing to cut your list, schedule official visits. etc. It is another to all of a sudden schedule just one official visit out of the blue, especially when UK and Cal are in hot pursuit.
But isn’t this exactly what happened? He stated a few days ago he would cut his list then scheduled a visit to the best offer out there.
If he ends up not scheduling any more visits, then yeah, he’s UK bound. But as of now, he very well could just be starting the “schedule official visits” part of your two scenarios.
Having said that, I think that UK offer might be too good to pass up.
Also, the timing of the OV is critical to me. Cal doesn’t have to get him in before August since he knows we can’t have him on an OV until then. (If he sees us as his main competition) Then he takes the first weekend of August to make sure we STILL can’t jump ahead of him. Its a giant chess match at times.
