Talented twosome to reschedule visit
Four-star running back Marshawn Lynch (5-11, 195, 4.4) and four star cornerback Virdell Larkins (5-10, 177, 4.5) from Oakland (Calif.) Tech were scheduled to visit UCLA this weekend but will have to cancel their visit the Westwood campus this weekend on November 14th.
The reason given is the fact that Larkins and Lynch have a game on Friday night and the Bruins have a game at 12:30 PM PST. It would be a tight squeeze time wise for the two standouts from Tech.

UCLA will have the talented duo in for a visit after Tech’s season is over.
While many high school teammates and even brothers may say they want to play on the same team in college most of the time the kids go their separate ways on the Division I level.
That won’t be the case with this duo, some lucky school is going to get two for the price of one with Lynch and Larkins. There is no doubt that Larkins and Lynch will end up on the same college team.
The talented duo has already visited Washington State and Oregon enjoying both schools.
When they visited Oregon they met Nike CEO Phil Knight.
The duo claims no leaders at this time, but they may not take another trip once they visit UCLA.
Before last week's game, Lynch had rushed for over 1,000 yards and has scored 22 touchdowns in six games.
Larkins didn’t have his stats on the year but the reports are opposing teams have avoided passing to his side of the field as one would avoid the flu.
