Is that what they do now? Or is your son buddies with him? Things have come a long way in 6 years. We had to sit in front of a desktop PC and hit refresh every two seconds.

That was fun and stressful though. He had his PSU and USCe (with big scholie) acceptances in the bag by Dec 12. Then we had to wait until something like March 27 at 5:00pm to find out the rest.

He was rotating between JMU, NCSU, Clemson and VT. Within about 30 seconds all of them popped up, but VT was the last one. Whoop!

I'm excited for you and your son.
