"I'm looking at USC, Washington, Cal, Texas A&M, UCLA, Arizona, and Tennessee and Ohio State if I leave the West," four star running back Hershel Dennis said. "All of them except Ohio State and Tennessee have offered me. USC and Washington are neck and neck for the lead. Arizona and Washington called me. I talked to them. Some others called but I wasn't home. I've got one trip set up so far, Washington December 14th. If I get a chance I think I'd like to take a trip to Ohio State. I like how they run their offense."

Dennis (5'11 190 4.4), from Long Beach Poly (CA), has his first game this Friday. During his junior season he rushed for 2104 yards and scored 32 times. He averaged 10 yards a carry.
