SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Nifae Lealao Jr. kept everyone guessing right up until the very end.
Lealao Jr., a four-star defensive lineman with Capital Christian (Sacramento, Calif.), bypassed the four college caps - Hawaii, Stanford, Utah and Cal - in front of him on a table and instead pulled a Vanderbilt cap out of a bag while announcing his college choice during an emotional ceremony at his school Wednesday morning.
Lealao Jr. had previously committed to Stanford before decommitting last week.
