Today's the big day, everyone. I'll be opening an open thread closer to decision time, but in case you somehow weren't aware of this fact: Nick Faust is announcing his college choice today on ESPNU's Recruiting Insider at 5:00 (which means the actual announcement will be coming closer to 5:28).
Faust has been considered a Maryland lean for the past several months, with assistant coach Bino Ranson's hire potentially being a nail in the coffin. He's also considering Villanova and FSU, but the other schools have consistently come and gone from his list. If you're wondering, Villanova fans think he's Maryland-bound.
Faust is ranked four stars and in the top 50 players in the country across all three major services. ESPN has him at #25 in the country overall, which would make him Maryland's highest rated commitment since Mike Jones (so...eh).
The anticipation is mounting.
