"Iowa is sending a lot of letters, so they are probably recruiting the hardest. If I don't get an offer from a school in Florida, I'll probably commit to Texas."
If he could choose his official visits today, they would go to:
Oklahoma: "They are a winning school. It's reasonably close to home, and it's a nice school."
Texas: "My coach says they're program is the top one in the nation."
Florida State: "It's in Florida."
Florida: "It's in Florida."
Miami: "That's my favorite school. I've always been a Hurricane fan and it's in Florida too."
Skinny: His dream schools would be Miami, followed by Florida and Florida State, or any school in Florida.
"Florida football is said to be a step faster than anywhere else in the nation, including skill-wise, and the thought of living there is a plus. I would even go to Central Florida or Southern Florida, just to go to school in Florida."
"If I don't get an offer from a school in Florida, I'll probably commit to Texas."
He said of his strong points: "My speed and athleticism would be my strong points."
He described himself as "a play-maker in the big games".
He compared his style of play to Jevon Kearse of the Tennessee Titans.
