Marlon Mack Has Committed To Louisville...Or South Florida

Hours after The Courier-Journal's Steve Jones reported that three-star running back Marlon Mack had committed to Louisville following an in-house visit from Cardinal coaches, Mike Singer of Rivals.com is also reporting that Mack has committed...to South Florida.

It was reported that Marlon Mack committed to Louisville today, but he committed to USF.

At this time, Jones is not backing away from his original story.

As of now, I'm sticking with my report that Marlon Mack committed to U of L during a visit with him tonight. That absolutely happened.

Mack, who had previously committed to UCLA and recently picked up a scholarship offer from Michigan, would be a huge get for the Petrino staff just nine days before national signing day.

As always, recruiting is creepy.

UPDATE:

And now, of course, this:
