9:30 A.M. — Swinimer To Swim at WVU

Granted Nick Swinimer signing with West Virginia swimmer isn't the most exciting news known to man, but we're always happy when a kid signs a Division I scholarship, even if he only gets 20 percent of it (we don't know the actual amount).

We're guessing since WVU didn't go into detail about Swinimer that he's not an elite recruit. But signing 21 swimmers is a little much in a single recruiting class, isn't it? I know that it's both genders, but this may break the record of Steve Spurrier signing 31 (we're still sure the actual number, but we know it was a lot) football recruits, knowing he could grayshirt some and the others wouldn't qualify.

Here's to Swinimer qualifying. In the pool and academically.
