Phil Steele on 97.1, Webb talks Newsome rumors (audio)

The audio of college football guru Phil Steele on Valenti and Foster. A lot of stuff you already know but a couple items of note:

* Sees Utah as a major test [agreed] and Steele picks the Utes to take the Mountain West conference.
* Says Michigan is currently a 3 point favorite over Notre Dame in Vegas, but thinks the Irish will be better than folks think.

Elsewhere: Each morning at 7:40am Sam Webb provides his recruiting round-up and started off again with Kevin Newsome. Click here for the clip. Webb is holding firm that there’s no info that leads him to think Newsome isn’t sticking to his commitment. Webb spoke to his parents as recently as yesterday. Newsome’s brother did attended the Va Tech summer camp and Webb advised that coach Frank Beamer did ask his brother about Kevin. [Sidenote: Someone needs to tell Webb what the phrase ‘in lieu of’ means – he says it all the time as if it equates to ‘in light of’].
