Coveted DL Alim McNeill has two officials set up

N.C. State, Florida State, Virginia Tech, Penn State, and Michigan are the five schools standing out to big time defensive lineman Alim McNeill out of Raleigh (N.C.) Sanderson.

McNeill has taken three visits this season. The first was to Atlanta to see Florida State play Alabama at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. He really liked seeing the Florida State defense work against Alabama and thought it was cool for those guys to play in front of a crowd like that. McNeill really likes how Florida State plans to use him.

The second visit of the season for McNeill was to Virginia Tech for the Clemson game. He thought the atmosphere was crazy and loves the coaches and the players there. He wants to be a part of a team like that and it means a lot to him that Virginia Tech was the first school to offer him.

McNeill's third and most recent visit of the season was to N.C. State for the Louisville game. He loved the stadium atmosphere and likes that the coaches are always talking to him about developing him like the guys they have now.

Michigan will host McNeill for an official visit for the Ohio State game and Virginia Tech will host him for a official visit during basketball season in December. McNeill plans on taking his three other official visits as well. He will announce his commitment at the Army All-American Bowl in early January.

McNeill is a pretty good baseball player and Florida State, N.C. State, and Virginia Tech have all told him that he will have the opportunity to play both sports in college.
