He recently released a top 10, including multiple high-tier programs, including Tennessee. Take a look at what he had to say about each school.

  • Michigan: “They have a winning culture, their program is elite, and they also get a lot of their players to the next level.”
  • Ohio State: “All around Great program, and many players succeed coming out of Ohio State. Also, I really like Coach Knowles, the defensive coordinator, and the DB coach, Walton, both of whom seem like really solid coaches.”
  • USC: “USC is a top school for me because I really have built a great relationship with all of the coaches there, and I feel like they are building something great with Coach Riley and making the move to go to the Big 10. It’s also close to home, which is always good.”
  • Stanford: “Stanford is a top choice for me because they have not only a great football program, but the education they offer is second to none. I also have a great relationship with most of the coaches on the staff.”
  • Oregon: “Oregon is a top choice for me because I really like the DB coach, Coach Meat. He and I have a good relationship, and I think he is one of the best corner coaches out there.”
  • UCLA: “UCLA is a top school for me because I have a really good relationship with Coach Whit, the defensive back coach. It’s also close to home, and I also like their move to the Big 10.”
  • Alabama: “Alabama is a top school for me because their football program is one of the best in college football. They get a lot of their guys to the next level. I also visited their campus for a camp, and I really liked everything about it. I got to get coached by Coach T-Rob during the camp, and I liked his energy and how intense he was.”
  • Notre Dame: “Notre Dame is a top school for me because their program is very elite, and they have been showing a lot of interest in me for a while now. I have been building a great relationship with Coach Mickens, Coach Freeman, and Coach Golden.”
  • Texas A&M: “Texas A&M is a top school for me because I have visited there a couple of times and really liked what I saw.”
  • Tennessee: “Tennesse is a top school for me because they have been recruiting me very well, and they keep in contact with me a lot. Tennessee also has a very good football program.”
