I think he's actually under consideration as a LB for us. Part of the lack of discussion I think stems from the fact that he'll be taking a mission directly out of high school--it's a lot harder to get super excited about a guy you won't get to see for two years (at best; obviously he might not come at all).
He'll be a very solid pickup for whomever; I believe he's visited us the most, so I'd guess we're the favorite here. Would give us our sixth Rivals four-star should he commit. For contrast, here's how many 4 and 5 stars (Rivals) we've gotten in previous years of the Harbaugh/Shaw era:
2007: 1
2008: 2
2009: 8
2010: 5
2011: 7
2012: 13
Pretty remarkable that with (hypothetically) seven commits we'd be already matching the 2009-11 trend.
