He discussed his finalists.

Oregon- Has been my dream school since elementary. I would always stay up to watch them.

USC- Would just love to live in Cali especially with their group of coaches away from home.

Michigan- Their defense is very aggressive, which is the defense I see myself playing in. Their db coach and others coaches are recruiting me very hard, if not the hardest, and I see they are building a solid 24 class right now.

Ohio State- I grew up watching them with my family and the db coach is recruiting me hard. He’s making it feel like home and they are doing something special with the 24 class now.

Penn State- They are really developing players.

Florida State- They are far from home and can see myself playing there.

Louisville – My dad grew up there for a couple years and their coaches talk to me a lot since they offered.

Tennessee- Great atmosphere and they have a different vibe. Their coaches show a lot of love.

Kentucky- One of the first schools to offer me and give me a chance.

Pitt –  Coaches recruiting me a lot.

Oklahoma –  Their defensive scheme fits me.

Notre Dame- Their head coach and db coach grew up in the same city as me, and I feel we have a strong connection.
