Bryant left equally excited about the Wildcats. 247Sports ranks Bryant as the No. 6 running back in America. Northwestern is going to have a shot to land him. "My visit to Northwestern was amazing," Bryant said. "I really liked their focus on life after football. They also showed me how I fit perfect within their offensive system." The 5-foot-10, 195-pound Bryant got a good feel for the coaches. "The staff is great," he said. "Coach (Dennis) Springer is my recruiting coach and he is a down-to-earth coach. When I got a chance to speak with Coach Fitzgerald I could tell he is very passionate about the game and truly cares for all of his players. He really emphasized character and life after football. "I got to watch film with Coach (Matt) Macpherson and he showed me how similar my high school offense is compared to Northwestern's. I feel that it would be a smooth transition from high school to Northwestern as far as plays go. "After the visit today Northwestern is definitely high on my list." Next up for Bryant is visits to Indiana on June 20, Syracuse on June 23 and UNLV on June 26. "I will make a top five shortly after those visits," Bryant said.
