Carlton still has two high school seasons left, but despite that, he has received a plethora of offers including Ole Miss, Ohio State, USC, LSU, Kansas State, Nebraska, Baylor, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, and Texas.

Carlton is explosive off the edge and dominates linemen one-on-one. He seemingly lives in the backfield, giving quarterbacks and running backs no time to think. 

In just five games this season, Carlton has made 18 solo tackles and 30 total including eight tackles behind the line. He has also recorded two sacks while averaging six tackles a game.

While there is still a lot of time for Carlton to make a choice, this is one step closer to his final decision. He has a ton of options to choose from, but Ole Miss is still on the edge’s radar.
