Russo scheduled his announcement on Saturday morning, and it seemed like a very strong possibility he would choose the Scarlet Knights. Now, anxious Scarlet Knight fans fearing Russo would say "UConn" or "Temple" can rest easy. Russo is a Scarlet Knight, and is poised to be a leader of the 2016 class.
Russo has barely been able to contain his excitement this weekend, and it is clear this young man is thrilled to be in this position.
