5) Oregon - the Beer is Great and get a bunch of Nike stuff
4) Arizona State, its full of dumb blonde co-eds
3) Boston College - Boston might be the best city in the country
2) Tulane - Who wouldn't want to hang out in New Orleans
1) Iowa- Most fun I've ever had in a college town (not including the 4 years I spent in Knoxville)
Clearly would commit to UT but that wasn't the question

3. Alabama
4. Auburn
5. FSU
LET THE BIDDING BEGIN!! IMO the 5 shadiest programs who are consistently in the top 10 in recruiting. I want to know what I can get from each of these schools
Particularly Auburn and Alabama. Someday we will here what really happened w/ the Brent Calloway situation last year.

Hawaii, Miami, UCLA, Colorado, and Rutgers.
Rutgers for the shopping in the area! Colorado for scenery and I am an outdoors kinds girl. The other 3 because of location.

I would definitely never take a visit to UT. I've been there, and I know how amazing it is. Therefore, I'd go (in no particular order):
Oregon - Would love to see that part of the country
Hawaii - Do I really need to say why?
Miami - Come on, its south beach
Virginia Tech - Always been a fan. Would like to see their facilities and meet coach Beamer
San Jose State - I think a trip to San Fran would be cool
Then on NSD, I'd have all 5 hats on a table, wearing my button down shirt and tie. I would the proceed to unbutton my shirt revealing a Black UT jersey.
GO VOLS!!

3. Oregon... Have you seen their cheerleading squad???
4. USC... No comment why
5. Miami...

I only have two...
1.) Tennessee (life long fan)...
2.) The "U" (would be one hell of a party weekend)
3.) LSU (Again, i think this would be a fun place to visit as a 17/18 year old
4.) Ole Miss (The girls, and the reasons mentioned above)
5.) USC (I hate Lane, but the guy puts on one hell of a show for recruits, would probably be a blast)....

1. Hawaii...who wouldn't
2. Oregon...load up on Nike gear and be interested to see the Northwest
3. Miami ....South Beach!
4. UNLV....Vegas!
5. Maryland...load up on Under Armour gear!
Unofficials to SEC schools, I can drive to almost all them in 8hrs or less.
Like Wes, I reserve the right to change mine.

If I were a 5 star player, I would visit Georgia, Bama, LSU, Ole Miss, and Tennessee. Only SEC schools for me... after all, I am a 5 star!

I was a hoop head in HS so mine is for the round ball.
Pepperdine (Nuff Said)
Appy St (Miss the mountains)
Memphis (Beal street, Redevous, and just so they would think they had a chance at a Vol fan from East Tennessee)
St Johns (NY NY and I was a big Chris Mullen fan)
Kentucky (Just so I could try to catch Cal cheating)
Then commit to UT at halftime of a Syracuse game. (still my favorite part of Tobias' recruitment)
