"A lot of schools are recruiting me," Worthington said. "I have 15 or 16 offers."
"LSU, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Boston College, Syracuse, Penn State, Ohio State, Buffalo, Connecticut, Maryland, and Pitt have offered."
"It's really hard to say who I like best. I like Penn State. They're close. I like Tennessee. Ohio State does a lot of good things with their players. Alabama is great. I like Virginia Tech, and Maryland and Pitt."
"The depth chart, playing time, and graduation rate will be big things to me."
