Virginia Beach, Virginia, Bishop Sullivan four-star linebacker Teradja Mitchell has long been down to Ohio State and Florida State, but took to Twitter on Monday night to set his announcement date. He'll make his decision during a ceremony at his high school on June 2 at 7 p.m.

The 6-foot-2, 243-pound Mitchell has been to Columbus twice in the last six months, and the staff was feeling increasingly confident in their chances following the latest visit in April. A trip to Tallahassee last weekend seemingly has things trending toward the Seminoles at this point in time, though.
“[I'm] still torn between Florida State and Ohio State,” Mitchell recently told Eleven Warriors. “Both schools can develop me into the best person I can be. They both are championship contenders and they have great business programs.”
As mentioned in tonight's edition of The Hurry Up, the same feeling surrounded Brenton Cox's recruitment before he chose the Buckeyes over Georgia last month. Mitchell said the decision will ultimately come down to wherever his heart tells him is the best place.
“I've been praying to God about it and taking my time,” he said.
