North Carolina transfer linebacker Eugene Asante has narrowed his focus to two schools, and a decision will come sooner than later.

Asante, who entered the transfer portal in December, will choose either Auburn or Maryland and do so before Thursday.

“It will be one of those two schools,” Asante said. “I’ve visited both of those schools. I took an official visit to Auburn in December and an unofficial visit to Maryland.”

Asante ‘cant go wrong’ with choice

Asante recorded 23 tackles in seven games during the 2021 season. He has two years of eligibility remaining and plans to enroll immediately at either Auburn or Maryland.

“They are both great schools,” Asante said. “I can’t go wrong with either of them.”

Asante, originally from Chantilly, Va., was the No. 236 overall recruit in the 2019 class, No. 26 linebacker and No. 7 overall in Virginia, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally-weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
