Traevon Dunbar talks contenders

Boston College – “They’ve been recruiting me since the beginning, which has given me a ton of time to build a relationship with coach (Savon) Huggins. I understand where they are trying to take their program.”

Arkansas – “I have gotten to visit a few times and what they have going on in Fayetteville is next level. They love to run the ball and most importantly my mom loves the staff.”

West Virginia – “I got the chance to visit recently and couldn’t say enough great things about coach (Chad) Scott and the rest of the staff there. It really felt like home and they also love to run the ball.

Penn State – “That’s RBU. In the last couple of years, they’ve produced time and time again some of the best backs in college football. The facilities are some of the best in the county and coach Ja’Juan Sieders and coach Walker made us feel at home when we visited.”

Maryland – “You can’t beat the exposure you’ll get at Maryland and being able to play Coast to coast on a team that runs the ball hard and has taken and developed a lot of guys like me into top talent in the college football world.”

Virginia Tech – “Sandstorm. I’ve always wanted to play in a place where people truly love football. It makes the game more than a game in my eyes and Blacksburg does it as well as any SEC or Big 10 school when it comes to their fans.”
