I'm pretty sure that having JR Reed be successful in the NFL right away is one of the reasons that one of the top Safeties in the country, Walter McFadden, has just now considering visiting USF:

Of course, seeing how he'd probably get playing time right away and having one of the best Business schools in the nation doesn't hurt our chances either.  

"I've been to Florida about three times," McFadden said. "I am going to be up there on January 28th for an official visit."

Florida should be his last visit, although he may take one more.

"Just Florida so far," he said. "I may take a visit to USF, but not sure."

Academics are important to him. He's quite serious about getting a college degree, but academics are just a part of what it will take to land him.

"I want to see if I can come in right away and play, that is a big factor," he said. "Every school has a good business program and every school is going to make sure I get that (degree) and study hard and all of that.

"Right now I am knocking it down to if I'm going to play, am I going to enjoy it? Is it like a family? Does everyone on the team get along with each other? What does a team do as a team, as a family? That is how it was done with my team."

The Sporting News gives Anthony Henry some love too this past week. No online version to post but it was a nice blurb about him flourising on any other team.
