Wednesday, February 3, 2016 will be one of the biggest days in the lives of many high school athletes across the country. This past weekend many high profile football recruits took their final official visits before the big day and some coaches were lucky enough to gain some commitments to bolster their programs. The following four Packers announced their college declarations over the weekend.
Chase Parrish, Navy
Last week, Parrish announced he received an offer from the Naval Academy and went up for a visit over the weekend. Saturday night, via twitter, the high school star gunslinger announced his intentions. According to 247Sports, he joins a class of 33 future cadets ready to carry on the Midshipmen tradition.

Kiel Pollard, South Carolina
After being committed to Arkansas since the end of September, the electric wideout announced his plans to flip to the University of South Carolina. Pollard is joining a Gamecock program that has received a spark in recruiting thanks to new coach Will Muschamp and his staff.
