McCoy names leader
"I've got four official visits set up now," Washington D.C. St. John's College linebacker Rico McCoy said. "Right now I have Tennessee, Ohio State, Michigan, and Pitt set up."
"I think Ohio State is Dec. 3. Pitt is Dec. 10. I think Tennessee is Dec. 17. I'm not sure when Michigan is. I can't remember the exact dates. My dad has those."

"I'm looking at Miami too. They'll most likely be my fifth visit. I just haven't set a date yet. It's those five."
Asked who his favorite is, McCoy said, "Leading the way is Ohio State. Then it's probably Tennessee and Michigan."
"Ohio State has a lot of good things about them. I like coach Fickell. I like the situation there. I like the depth chart. It seems like a good place to be."
Asked about Tennessee and Michigan, McCoy said, "Coach Fulmer is a real good guy. It seems like a nice program there. The two linebackers, Simon and Barnett, it would be good to go there after those guys. The SEC is big-time football."
"Michigan is like Ohio State as far as tradition. It's Big Ten football. There's a lot of history behind the school."
The 6-foot-2 and 210 pound McCoy made 120 tackles including five sacks during his junior season. McCoy is averaging 11 tackles per game this season through four games. He is the No. 15 outside linebacker prospect in the Rivals.com player rankings and the No. 1 prospect in the District of Columbia.
