Rouse has had a big boost to his recruitment since his very impressive performance at the Rivals 3 Stripe Camp in New Jersey at the end of April. Offers from Stanford, Nebraska, Notre Dame and Ohio State have rolled in, and Rouse’s recruitment has really changed. With the potential to be a standout left tackle, Rouse has built his recruitment into one that schools from coast to coast need to be watching.

Franks hasn’t been an under-the-radar prospect, but his recruitment got a shot of adrenaline after some impressive camp performances this spring. He has made the most of opportunities at the Rivals 3 Stripe Camp, and Nebraska, Louisville and Pittsburgh have offered since then. Franks isn’t going to speed up his recruitment, so he will take a hard look at the new offers before making any decisions.

Michigan State, Maryland, Florida, South Carolina, Georgia Tech, Boston College, Indiana, Cincinnati and Temple. Those are all the schools that have offered McDaniels since his standout performance at the Rivals adizero Combine in Maryland at the end of March. He went on to impress at the Rivals 3 Stripe Camp in Charlotte, and his offer sheet should continue to get longer as time goes on. McDaniels has a teammate (JaHad Carter) who is committed to Virginia Tech, but McDaniels isn’t ruling any school out at this point.

West is a very intriguing prospect who could play multiple positions. That’s probably why Syracuse, Michigan, Virginia Tech, Boston College, Nebraska and Vanderbilt have offered him since his Mid-April performance at the Rivals 3 Stripe Camp in Charlotte. Michigan, Penn State, and Clemson are three schools to keep an eye on with West down the line.

It’s always news when Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh offers a quarterback, but it’s even bigger news when that offer is the player’s first. That was the case with McQuarrie. In a loaded quarterback group at the New Jersey Rivals 3 Stripe Camp, the expectations for the New Hampshire native weren’t very high but he nearly stole the show. McQuarrie towered over the rest of the quarterbacks and caught everybody’s attention when the ball left his hand. There are many more offers in store for McQuarrie.
