At this poing Wheat has one scholarship offer on the table.
"Michigan State offered," he said. "They were the first one. There's a few others in the works, but Michigan State is the only one that's come through officially."
When asked who his favorite is between the Spartans, Wolverines, and Buckeyes, Wheat said, "That's hard to say, but maybe Michigan."
Wheat will be in Columbus in May.

Wheat has been to the state schools on his list for spring activities.
"I've been going to Michigan and Michigan State for spring practices," Wheat said. "I'll go to their spring games. And I'll probably go to their football camps."
