Message: [QUOTE="PhatOrange, post: 1075721, member: 229"] Henderson to decide July 4 and he says it's btw Syracuse and Buttgers. He makes some interesting comments about Syracuse. He also says he has an idea of where he's going. [B]Syracuse:[/B] "It's a little bit closer to home. The head coach is from Ohio -- Painesville, Ohio. That's a plus. My position coach was my recruiting coach. He's the one who called me and offered me. He came to see me like twice in a week just working out, so that's a plus. I know they are graduating like five linebackers this year, so that's a plus. It's a top marketing school, so that's a plus. I like their dome, so that's a plus. Their dorm rooms are really nice, maybe even better than Rutgers. It was really nice. And another plus is they have a lot of commitments. I know they have two (New) Jersey guys, so that's kind of big. When I saw (Daiquan Kelly) pick Syracuse and not going to Rutgers, that was big. That could play a factor in my decision. I really like the position coach, I like him a lot. We have a real good relationship, so that's a huge plus. And they were like my fourth offer, so that was a plus." On the Big 10 / ACC When comparing the two conferences his two finalists play in, he had this to say: "The Big Ten, I want to get back at those teams that didn't offer me, so that's kind of where I stand at with that," he said. "And the ACC is cool. I'll be able to travel, play in North Carolina – go to Atlanta and play – play in warm weather all the time. That would be kind of cool. They play in the dome, so it wouldn't be that cold. The only cold games I would have to play are Pitt and Boston College, so that's kind of cool."

Clearly his size holds him back from the big 10 offers, but he cranked out 225 20 times. Kid is jacked and likes to hit, will fly around the field and make plays. We project him at SAM. Might be a good fit here. [/QUOTE]
