Dont forget about NC linebacker Morris

With a teammate like running back Daronte McNeil, linebacker Colby Morris out of Elizabeth City (N.C.) Northeastern is getting overlooked by most college coaches early in the recruiting process. The 6-foot-2, 225-pounder still holds one scholarship offer and is beginning to see his interest pick up.

"He's got an offer from East Carolina right now," Northeastern head coach Antonio Moore said. "He's also getting looks from North Carolina, Wake Forest, North Carolina, State, Boston College, Virginia, Virginia Tech and a bunch of others.

"At the moment I don't think he has any favorites. He's just waiting out the process trying to see who else is going to show him interest."

Morris had an impressive junior year that saw him account for 122 tackles, five sacks and three interceptions.

"He was our leading tackler on the team last year beating out (Virginia Tech commit) Devven Sutton," Moore stated. "He has great instincts for a linebacker and his effort on the field is always for the team. He also is very smart and has tremendous vision and sees everything on the field. Colby knows where to be and what to do on every play."

Last season Morris earned all-conference honors.

This summer the linebacker prospect is planning on heading to camps at East Carolina, North Carolina State, North Carolina and Virginia.
