“It was amazing, love it up there,” Russell told On3. “Seen a lot from the QBs like pressure throws and more. They said that they can’t wait to have me behind the center. The coaches were amazing. Great atmosphere.”
Ahead of his senior season, Russell wants his decision finalized. In-state Texas A&M hosted him for a visit this month while Texas is expecting him this weekend, both have quarterbacks already committed. Alabama, Baylor, Houston, Ole Miss, Oregon and Florida will likely host him in the coming months. For official visits, he’s got SMU May 17, Ole Miss April 27 and Florida June 7.
Ahead of the updates according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, Russell ranked as the No. 99 overall prospect and No. 10 quarterback in the country.
