”I was at Florida State, Miami, and I went down to Georgia Tech a lot.
On his relationship with Georgia...

On his relationship with Stacy Searels and Phil Rauscher...
“Coach Phil came to see me yesterday at practice, so it's definitely been a mix of both. I mean, they pretty much have everybody on board recruiting me and trying to get me. I’m still hearing the love from them.”
On his Georgia official visit...
“I have it for that June 4th weekend, but any other opportunities I can try to come up there before then I will try to make it out. I have Miami on May 29th and then LSU on June 12th before going to Tennessee on the 19th.”
On his friendship with Georgia commit Kelsey Adams...
“They like big offensive linemen. They’ve got Kelsey Adams. That's my guy for sure. We spend a lot of time together. We see each other on a lot of visits so we’ve so definitely had talks about doing it, especially when I seen them committing. He definitely tried to sell me too as well.
On his commitment date...
“I do plan to shut this down in about two months on the 1st of July. That’s when I’ll commit.
On what it will take to land his commitment...
“Honestly, relationships are pretty big. Being able to go out to a college where I'm going to be for the next three or four years, it has to benefit me and my family as well. That’s definitely the biggest thing in this process.”
