Sherry hearing from schools
Nick Sherry recently de-committed from Colorado and the Petaluma (Calif.) Casa Grande pro-style quarterback is back on the market but doesn't plan to rush a decision.
Instead, he's going to take time to research schools, wait until after the bowl season and then figure out what's best for him.

It's been a difficult time for Sherry, a 6-foot-4, 211-pound three-star quarterback, but the Buffaloes weren't the right fit and now he's moving on to other things.
"Right now we have a couple offers from UNLV and Idaho and I'm talking to Arizona and Washington and Wisconsin," Sherry said.
"They said after their bowl games they'll start recruiting. They don't want to worry about any recruiting during this time because they're getting ready for their bowl games and it's Christmas time."
By mid-January, Sherry expects to have a better understanding of his recruiting situation but if it takes longer he's willing to wait things out.
Since he committed early, many of the programs recruiting him backed away and now Sherry is trying to get involved again with colleges and that takes time.
"I'm going to see what best fits," Sherry said. "If February 2 is when I find out where I'm going then so be it. I'm going to make sure I find somewhere where I can play and have my best experience as a college football player."
Sherry, who threw for 2,623 yards with 25 touchdowns and six interceptions in his senior season, said recently that San Diego State and San Jose State are also involved. It's been a tough time for him but with the new coaching staff at Colorado both sides realized it wasn't going to work out.
Now Sherry is being patient to make sure the second time around works out best for him.
"It's disappointing because I really wanted to go to Colorado and it's a great place but the coaches left and they were the main reason I was going there," Sherry said.
"I had never talked to the other coaches before so I was preparing to go back on the market and to see if those other schools could get back involved."
