Favorite Schools: He is hearing from "Michigan, Washington, Stanford, UCLA, Texas, Texas Tech, TCU, Wisconsin, Clemson, Texas A&M, Syracuse, Boston College and Miami" of Florida.
He would like to make his official visits to:
Michigan - "I'm a long time fan of theirs."
Stanford - "They are neck and neck with Michigan. They have a nice campus, academic strength and a good law school."
Texas - "They are probably third on the list really, because they have a lot of talent and Larry Dibbles said they have a nice campus."
Washington - "The produce good offensive linemen and they have a good running offense, as well as a good law school."
UCLA - "They stress academics and produce well rounded players."
Texas Tech - "They are sixth and probably wouldn't get a visit, but they are a longshot that needs consideration."
Skinny: "Ofa Mohetau will probably be my biggest challenge on defense, while Xavier Lawson-Kennedy will my toughest opponent, when I'm playing center. My sports hero is my track coach Michael Carter, who played for the 49ers in the early to mid-eighties."
