Does Briggs like any colleges?
"I like Rutgers and UNC," he stated. "My cousin went as a student to Rutgers and I've always wanted to go to UNC.
"I just want a good football program. That's the big thing for me."
Playing for Independence, Briggs is used to winning football games and would like that to continue in college. However, he's open to any school that is recruiting him.
