Georgia sleeper has two C-USA offers

Lovejoy, Ga., is just one of those schools where there just seems to be an endless supply of prospects. Here in the month of January they have another prospect that has picked up two Conference USA offers. Defensive tackle Jonathan Battle has been on the recruiting radar for a while, but he is just being introduced to the casual recruiting fan.
"I have an offer from Memphis in writing and East Carolina told me that I had an offer and that I could commit, but it's not in writing," Battle said. "I have an official visit scheduled for East Carolina on January 28 and I don't know that I am going to take any other visits."

The 6-foot-3, 285-pound Battle runs the 40-yard dash in 5.1 seconds, He has a 340-pound bench press and 450-pound squat, along with a 25-inch vertical jump.
"I am probably favoring East Carolina a little bit more right now," Battle said. "I feel more comfortable with them and they are recruiting me harder. They had several of their coaches in here just the other night. Memphis only sent one coach to meet with me one time a few weeks ago."
Memphis is recruiting Battle as a defensive lineman while East Carolina wants him as an offensive lineman.
