When asked about a favorite, he said, "I don't want to think about it right now."
He'd like to assign his official visits to:
Texas: "My dream school: I've always been a long time fan of theirs. I have older friends there and lots of connections with the school."
Rice: "They have good academics. They're interested in me, and I think I would be a good fit in their offense."
TCU: "I have friends there, and I was impressed with the other recruits on my unofficial on an April 13th visit. They were the first visit I ever made."
Oklahoma: "Their reputation speaks for them."
Texas A&M: "Playing in Texas for a Texas university would be an honor."

In one game last year, Adam Brekke emerged as the star of the game. Brekke, an option specialist, led Cy-Falls’ first two touchdown drives in the second half. He finished with 42 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries.
"My running ability, leadership and agility are my advantage, so they would be my strong points."
He described himself as a hard hitting, cerebral type player, while comparing his style of play to Kordell Stewart of Pittsburgh Steelers.
"I would rather stay in the south, but for the right offer, I'd go just about anywhere."
"I'll be looking at academic reputation, location, and more playing time over the ranking of the program as factors in my decision."
