Four-star running back and the No. 286 overall recruit in the On300 George Pettaway of Suffolk (Va.) Nansemond-Suffolk Academy will announce his commitment Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. EST on CBS Sports HQ.
Pettaway will choose between finalists Florida, North Carolina, Oregon and Penn State.

“I would say I am about 75-80-percent sure of the school I am committing to,” Pettaway told Simmons last week. “Communication with the four schools will remain the same and I will just make sure of my decision. I do not plan to take anymore visits before my commitment.”
