“The top three, not in any order, Georgia, Missouri and Oklahoma.”
Regarding Missouri: “Dad wants to be close. It’s convenient. It’s an hour or a little under two hours down the road. He’ll play. NIL, all those things, there is a lot of benefits for him staying close.”
Regarding Oklahoma: “Oklahoma is the relationships. He’s got a great relationship with coach (Miguel) Chavis and coach (Todd) Bates, those are the D-line coaches. They’ve done a great job getting to know Will. He responds to them. Knowing Will that’s hard. He responds to them. Relationship-wise I think Oklahoma has done a really good job with Will.
“He does like Venables. They do have a relationship. He talks to him. But for Oklahoma, the biggest piece I’ve seen is the relationship with the D-line coaches.”
Regarding Georgia: “The environment. They’re winners. They’re the best. There is a mystique that comes with that. How they do things. Very organized, very efficient, very hard-working staff. Caoch Chidera (Uzo-Diribe) has done a good job with him, the outside linebackers coach. Really good dude. He’s really worked at getting to know Will as a person. Of course Will has spoken to Kirby Smart. It’s that environment, they produce a lot of pros every year, they’re winners and you can feel it when you’re there. It’s definitely a winning environment.”
