    Rodney Purvis will announce his college choice Friday, according to NewsObserver.com in Raleigh, N.C.

    Purvis is down to N.C. State, Louisville, UConn and VCU, according to the report.

    He has taken officials to UConn, N.C. State and N.C. Central.

    UConn-bound shooting guard Omar Calhoun previously told SNY.tv he has been recruiting Purvis to the Huskies and hopes he joins them.

    “I talk to him from time to time,” Calhoun told SNY.tv. “We have been friends since the seventh and eighth grade. He would be a tremendous addition to the UConn family. With myself, Ryan Boatright and Shabazz Napier, the legacy of UConn basketball will continue to be in full effect.”
