Fleetwood says 4 standing out
Junior safety Kyle Fleetwood of Stone Mountain (Ga.) Stephenson now has an impressive total of 14 offers. On Tuesday night, he claimed to have no leaders but said four programs were standing out because "they've been showing me the most interest so far."
"I've narrowed it down somewhat, but it's not a top anything," Fleetwood said. "I like Vanderbilt, I like South Carolina, I like Louisville and I like LSU as well."

Here's what he said about each of the four …
Vanderbilt: "It seems like a great school academically. It seems like an awesome school to be at. And it seems like they're trying to turn around the program."
South Carolina: "I've been there and I thought it was a great place, a great city. I'm going there this Sunday. My family hasn't visited yet. This is so my parents can see the campus. It's a great football atmosphere and a great school. My parents wanted to see what I was talking about."
Louisville: "They've been showing a lot of interest. I hear a lot about [head coach Charlie] Strong. I hear a lot of good things. They have a great coaching staff. I want to be able to see it for myself."
LSU: "They've got great tradition. They're excellent in football. It's definitely a good school to get down to and visit to see what they're all about."
In addition to South Carolina, Fleetwood already has been to Alabama, Georgia, South Florida and Vanderbilt. According to Fleetwood, he's planning on making a return trip to Vanderbilt and might also try to check out Louisville and LSU this summer.
For now, he seems to be in no hurry to make a commitment.
"I have no date set," Fleetwood said.
