Bullock schedules first official

Absegami, N.J. defensive tackle Brandon Bullock still has two teams leading for his services. The 6-foot-3, 305-pounder has scheduled an official visit to one of the two schools for this weekend.

"I'm still favoring Rutgers and Syracuse, but I've scheduled a visit to Syracuse for this Friday," he stated. "They asked me to come up recently and I wanted to take the trip. I want to see how cold it is there. I like the coaching staff and particularly my recruiting coach, Tim Cross is great. He's a really down-to earth guy and gives you good advice."

What does the two-star prospect hope to see on the trip?

"I really want to go and see the facilities," he said. "I also want to see the relationship amongst the players and just check out the atmosphere there. I'm hoping I'll be able to build a better relationship with the coaches a little more too."

Meanwhile, Bullock is still looking into a visit to Rutgers.

"They are right up there with Syracuse," he said. "They are a pretty amazing program and rebuilding. They also have a young team and I like their coaches."

Two other teams are making a push for the Garden State lineman.

"Michigan State and Cincinnati have been in touch," he said. "The coaches at Michigan State are saying they like me as a player, but haven't offered yet. I'm keeping my option open and would consider them."
