Just a few hours after he is introduced today as Rutgers’ new football coach at a 1:30 press conference broadcast on SNY, Kyle Flood will learn whether he gets to coach Darius Hamilton.
The 6-foot-4 Hamilton, the son of former Giants great Keith Hamilton, is ranked the No. 2 strongside defensive end in the Class of 2012 by Rivals.
He will announce for either Rutgers or Miami. National Signing Day is Wednesday.
Asked if Hamilton had already decided in his own mind, Don Bosco coach Greg Toal told SNY.tv, “I got no idea, to be honest with you.”
OK, so it’s not the original lineup, but Axl Rose will still be leading the charge when the Gunners play three concerts at small clubs in New York City next month.
Original members Duff McKagan, Izzy Stradlin, Slash, Dizzy Reed and Matt Sorum are no longer in the band which will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April.
Amile Jefferson will hold off on announcing his college choice until after his season ends, which could be early next week.
“He’s trying to finish up these last few high school games and then he’s going to make a decision,” Malcolm Musgrove, Jefferson’s father, told SNY.tv Monday evening.
“He has three more games and then the playoffs. His season could be over next Tuesday.”
SNY.tv reported that a source close to Jefferson’s recruitment said the 6-foot-7 Philly Friends Central forward would likely choose between Duke or N.C. State, and that he was leaning “60/40” to Duke.
