The ASU loss might have helped JMU land this guy, as the JMU coaches were out recruiting instead of still coaching.
Varina is a Richmond area AAA (largest classification in VA) power. Over a million people in the area, probably about 50-60 high schools considered Richmond area. He's the 3rd rated QB. Might be JMU's biggest committment so far.

"Thorpe (6-2, 205) chose the Dukes over the University of Richmond, Appalachian State, Syracuse and Connecticut. JMU, UR and Appalachian State recruited Thorpe as a quarterback."

This guy sounds a lot like Landers. All the I-A schools wanted him to play DB or some other position than QB.
