Oliver Bozeman.
"I think I've got it down to two, but it's not getting
any easier to choose," said Bozeman, a member of the Rivals.com
Florida Top 100 team and the No.
21 dual-theat quarterback in the nation. "Syracuse is still there, but I went on
an official visit to Alcorn State this past weekend, and I really had a good
time. I loved the school. That's where (Steve) McNair played, and they feel like
I'm the same type of quarterback, dual-threat and all.
"They also think I can come in and help them right away.
That's the biggest thing I'm looking at. I've got to decide what I want to do.
Do I want to go to a big program like Syracuse, where I might not get on the
field for a couple of years, or do I want to go a little smaller, like Alcorn
State, who needs me right away?
"I don't want to give people the wrong impression -- I like to compete. I'm not afraid of that. But Syracuse was real up-front with me and told me they've got a couple of quarterbacks there who would be tough competition, and I'd really like to be on the field next year... so I don't know."
Bozeman (6-3, 170, 4.6) threw for 2,400 yards and 27
touchdowns as a senior at Dillard High school. He also rushed for 10 scores.
