I heard he was pretty highly recruited but choice VCU because of a specialty engineering program we have. Any truth to that? Is this guy real smart too?

That's awesome... honestly I haven't seen him since he was like three feet tall- my buddy's family lives in Palmdale (which is in the middle of nowhere a little over an hour away from LA). I do know his brother is super smart (computer whiz) and his mom was the director of film/theater admissions at UCLA for a while (helped my own brother get into UCLA, even though he transferred later). It doesn't surprise me he chose VCU b/c of the engineering program.
