Four visits are set for Broughton

Visits are quickly getting set up for Iowa commitment Braylon Broughton who has been committed to the Hawkeyes for sometime now, but told everyone he'd still be taking some trips.
The 6-foot-6, 240-pound defensive end is even adding new offers from Oklahoma State and Arkansas along with his list that includes the likes of Arizona, Iowa State, Kansas, Minnesota, and TCU. With all of his new options, his visit list is starting to get set up. However, Iowa coaches are coming in for an the first in-home visit to see what the story is.

"Coach Ron Aiken came by the house tonight from Iowa," Broughton said. "Basically, I'm just getting to know him better. We talked about a lot of stuff about life and about football."
"He's real cool though. He's not pressuring me about visits and I just want to see what's out there."
So far his schedule is almost full. He has trips set to Kansas on Dec. 2, Iowa for Dec. 9, Iowa State for Dec. 16 and now Arkansas who just offered has been added to the schedule for Jan. 20.
"My plan is to have my fifth visit be to Baylor, but if I don't do that, it will either be Arizona or Oklahoma State," he said. "I've got more offers now, so there are a lot of options."
Broughton says it won't be so easy for schools to sway him away from his original pick.
"That's hard to say," he said. "I don't know, my comfort level with the coach is really important. I want to be able to trust the guy you know. If we're clicking on a lot of things, then that will be huge in my commitment."
