"I committed to South Carolina, but I haven't signed. Anything can change. I talked to (Ohio State assistant) coach Heacock on Sunday night. He's supposed to get back to me around the middle of the week. I'll know by then.
"But I probably won't visit because of the controversy. I don't know if I want to take that gamble."
Before committing to South Carolina Sledge had visits scheduled to Ohio State Jan. 21 and Florida Jan. 28. Sledge said he hasn't talked to the Gators since he committed to South Carolina.
The 6-foot-2 and 190 pound Sledge is the No. 27 'athlete' prospect in the Rivals.com player rankings and the No. 48 prospect in the state of Florida. Sledge played wide receiver, cornerback, and safety during his senior season.
