Sarell planning offseason visits

Foster Sarell suffered a forearm injury early in the season and has been sidelined ever since, but he could return to action as early as next week.

Recruiting, of course, hasn't slowed down one bit for the four-star offensive tackle from Graham (Wash.) Graham-Kapowsin. Sarell, the top-rated prospect in Washington for the 2017 class, has been hearing from a number of programs and intends to start loading his offseason itinerary to find the perfect fit for his skill set and personality.

The massive 6-foot-6, 315-pound prospect visited Stanford this past summer and already has his sights set on a return trip, among other stops.

Absolutely loved my visit to Stanford! Thank you to all the coaches for showing me a great time! Extremely grateful! pic.twitter.com/4Bot14aXIQ— Foster Sarell (@thebigfozbear) August 14, 2015

IN HIS WORDS: "I'll probably narrow it down in a couple months," Sarell told Rivals.com. "I want to take a couple visits in the spring and summer before making a decision. Right now, we have planned to be at Stanford for junior day. We also want to go to Michigan, and maybe hit Nebraska, Notre Dame and Alabama in the summer.

"Washington is obviously the nearby school and they are recruiting me pretty hard along with the others I mentioned and USC, too. A couple days ago I received 110 letters from Florida State in the mail, so that was pretty crazy. It's early in the process of my junior year, so for me right now it's about building relationships and learning as I go."

WHAT'S NEXT?: Sarell admitted he faces a tough decision because he's built such great relationships with numerous college coaches. In fact, he said he sent Huskies coach Chris Petersen a text message immediately after Washington upset the Trojans in Los Angeles, and does the same with other across the country. Graham-Kapowsin is undefeated heading into the final two weekends of the regular season, so Sarell should get an opportunity to return this year if his recovery stays on track. Then, when the college visits begin, the whole process could unravel quickly. Sarell told Rivals.com if he goes somewhere and it "blows his mind," it's going to be difficult to say no.
