I don't know why some thought Weinke was the top priority at QB when Charest has been at the top for a while (Look no further than him being the first officially offered). He is a stud. I look for him to commit sooner than that......that's just me though.

And he "will move up considerably" in the next Rivals rankings. I was shocked he was a 2 star in the first place.
