Ryan Switzer is a Tarheel

  • I thought he was a PSU lock and would commit to PSU after he visited according to PSU fans.

    Switzer Commits

    Multiple sources have confirmed to CarolinaBlue.com that Ryan Switzer has committed to North Carolina.

  • So did we. He said on his visit he wanted to commit but didn't out of respect for his mother since she had never seen the place, so she was coming up March 31st with him to commit. Then he goes to UNC, gets blown away and is gone. Very shocking to our board.

    He did not have a commitable offer anyways, because he is a kid our coaches wanted to see in camp.

    Why

    He's killing it in camps, but those are camps. The competition he plays against is up there with the worst in the country. He also hated when it took Holgorsen so long to offer, and many believe that Holgorsen only offered because of political pressure. Remember, this is a coach that produced Wes Welker, Crabtree and Blackmon. I think he knows a thing or two about WR's.

    I've heard some things about character issues, but I don't know him so I can't judge him on that. He could be a saint for all I know. I wish him well at UNC, PSU or wherever he goes. Hope he has a great college career.

    He had us at EerSports convinced he was going to PSU also.

    Up until we got word he would go to UNC, I felt he was going to PSU and the reason he was announcing tomorrow was that the visit just showed him how much he loved PSU.

    You'll notice there are Mountaineer fans that would kill for this kid but the vast majority saw him as a talented player who just happens to play a position that WVU hasn't had very many issues recruiting the past 10 years or more. So this really isn't a big loss.

    Thought he was going to PSU as well. Recruiting is far from over, so we will see.

    Don't know how long the spot for him will hold at PSU. He certainly had his shot, I hope the void is filled quickly and if he has second doubts, so be it.

    The speculation is that Mom did not want him to go to PSU because of the Sandusky thing. His coach also seemed to push him in a different direction. And him having family in the area helped UNC as well. What can ya do? shrug

    He seemed like a nice kid, and regardless of competition, he certainly has skills. I wish him the best at UNC.

    One thing, if you have never been to both UNC and PSU, the campuses are somewhat similar. The university sits up above the downtown area, which has a main strip with tons of fun stuff to do. If a kid likes one place, he usually likes the other.

    I haven't been to PSU, but I love Chapel Hill. Just a beautiful campus all around, and in a good location.
