Five official visitors among recruits expected for UCF-ECU

Five official visitors, including four-star linebacker Eriq Gilyard, will be on the UCF campus this weekend taking in Saturday night's homecoming game against East Carolina.

Gilyard has been a longtime top defensive target for the Knights. He recently trimmed his list to a final two - UCF and NC State - and will announce his commitment on Sunday, Oct. 22. He has already taken an official visit to see the Wolfpack.

Accompanying Gilyard on an official visit is teammate Chamarri Conner, a safety who committed to Virginia Tech last November.

Rounding out the officials are three prior UCF commits: Offensive lineman Devin Jordan, defensive end Demetreius Mayes and cornerback Avery Thornton.

Prospects expected to attend the game on an unofficial visit include current commits of Florida State, Louisville, Oregon and Cincinnati.

Here's a full look at the expected visitors.
