Recruiting roundup: Eric Cobb waits on NCAA decision
USC basketball recruit Eric Cobb (6-10) of Jacksonville remains in limbo while the NCAA Clearinghouse reviews his work according to his prep school coach. Nick Myles said earlier this week Cobb is a half-credit short on his grades from his high school and the Clearinghouse is in the process of reviewing his transcripts.
