Per a source on the Louisville side of things here is the current situation:

Missouri is conducting an in-home visit with Pettway tonight. Tomorrow night Louisville head coach Scott Satterfield and defensive coordinator Bryan Brown will be in Pettway's living room trying to convince him to come back and take an official visit this weekend before the early signing period. The problem with that is he has scheduled an official visit to FAU. The Owls are not in Pettway's top-five and he is telling the staff that FAU was his first offer and I guess he feels obligated to pay them a visit.

He is also fresh off an official visit to Georgia Tech and I would assume new head coach Geoff Collins will be conducting an in-home visit with him, I just haven't received confirmation on that yet.

I spoke to a source with Tennessee who told me he isn't a take and the Vols aren't recruiting him. So scratch Tennessee.

My reaction:
When Pettway visited Louisville the first time when the head coaching position was vacant I heard rumors that he was a silent commit. I didn't really have enough to report that so instead I made a futurecast in favor of Louisville. After that he took an official visit to Missouri and the feedback I received to three different sources made me change my pick to the Tigers. I maintain that pick right now but with GT and UofL sending their new coaches in I believe things can get crazy.

If signing day was today I'm confident Missouri would be the pick. Fortunately for Louisville signing day is eight days away. If Satterfield and Brown can convince Pettway to cancel his official visit to FAU and get him back to Louisville then things look very good. If he goes on his official to FAU I would stick with Mizzou for my futurecast.
