Wright feeling the pressure
Four-star defensive tackle Marquise Wright is announcing his college decision on Wednesday at 1 p.m. at his school, and the pressure is starting to mount.
The former Pitt commit opened up the recruiting process in the wake of the coaching changes at the Big East school and he has carefully evaluated a good number of schools that started pursuing him again once he decommitted.

The 6-foot-3, 265-pound defensive tackle from Paramus Catholic in New Jersey has narrowed his choices to Rutgers and Michigan State.
"There's a little bit of pressure both ways," he said, indicating that he does not feel as though the people around him are pushing him in one direction or the other.
"Rutgers has distance working for them and I really like Michigan State's campus," he added. "It's going to be one of those two. I'm going to call the school before I make the (announcement)."
Wright is ranked the No. 14 defensive tackle in the nation by Rivals.com.
