Kelly not ready for decision
Jeremy Kelly has talked a lot with his brother, Jermaine, about playing at Washington, what the program is like and what he thinks about the Huskies.

The 2015 athlete from Los Angeles Salesian saw it for himself recently at Washington's camp and he absolutely loved everything about the program.
Kelly is not ready to commit yet but Washington is definitely in great shape in his recruitment especially after the three-star worked out on campus.
"I can definitely see why my brother chose to go to Washington," Kelly said. "The coaches are different but if he wasn't going to go to Washington he was going to Boise State and I can see why.
"Coach (Jimmy) Lake and coach (Brent) Pease and coach (Chris) Petersen they're all great coaches and I can see why he wanted to play for them. Seattle, the whole area, is really beautiful. Washington has a nice campus and their new stadium is amazing. I can definitely see why he wanted to be there. It's a great environment.
"It's been good. You feel chemistry with those coaches. I went up to the camp and I started playing receiver and then I moved to defense, too. I feel like I did really well. I feel like I was the best receiver and corner at the camp and I don't even play corner."
Washington definitely impressed the Los Angeles Salesian standout but no commitment is near. Kelly said he still wants to look at every school recruiting him and he was also impressed by trips to Oregon and Cal.
"I'm still looking at everybody," Kelly said. "I want to play out the season and I want to take a couple more visits. I just don't want to commit to Washington and say I saw enough. I want to take my visits and actually see what else is out there.
"I don't want to be the guy who goes to Washington just because my brother goes there. I want to be my own person sometimes and take visits to see what else is out there."
Trips to Oregon and Cal definitely went well for Kelly, who said he probably will not camp at USC or UCLA this week.
"Cal was really nice," Kelly said. "That's a really nice campus. I was thinking about majoring in business or communications and Cal is ranked at the top in both of those. I feel like their program is on the rise. They got a lot of good people this year.
"Everybody pretty much knows the facilities and the campus is amazing at Oregon. It seems like a dream, every kid's dream of where they want to play. It's much more than just the uniforms. The overall way they take care of their players and their tradition, you can see why they win a lot of games."
