Final four for four star RB set
LenDale White of Littleton (Colo.) Chatfield is planning on giving one of four coaches a little late Christmas present. That present - his commitment.
"I'm going to announce my decision the day after Christmas," White, the four star running back and No. 2 player in the state of Colorado, said. "We're going to have a little media gathering and do the announcement."

Between now and then, White does have a lot of thinking to do.
After taking visits to USC, Pittsburgh, Texas and Michigan, White said he's now ready to sit down and think about a decision.
"I've decided to not take the fifth visit," White said. "I could have gone to Kansas State, Oklahoma or Oregon, but I'm comfortable in my heart with my four schools."
And all of them appear to be on equal footing at this point.
Michigan was the last to get an official visit from White this past weekend and he said he came away very impressed.
"I got to see them start their bowl preparation," White said.
"I also spent a good deal of time with coach (Lloyd) Carr. We talked about life and not just football. That's good to have a coach that you can open up to and talk to the other stuff about."
But White was also quick to point out that he feels really comfortable with the other head coaches of the schools that he's visited.
"I'm just worn out right now," he said. "All the schools in my top four, I feel really good about. I could see myself playing at each and every one of them.
"I'm going to let them come in and make their in-home visits and then sit down and do a lot of thinking. I'm going to search my heart and that's where I will find my answer."
