AJ Henning (5-foot-10, 183 pounds), a four star-ranked Lincoln-Way East senior, wrapped up his spring track season last weekend at the IHSA state finals and has now turned his attention towards his upcoming team camp and recruiting process.
"My first official visit will be this coming weekend to Georgia," according to Henning. "I'm then going to make an official visit to Notre Dame on June 8 and my last visit will be to Michigan on June 22."
Henning will take his official visits and --for now-- is planning to come up with a college choice shortly after his visits.
"I'm either going to make a possible decision after those three visits. If I don't come away ready to make a decision, then I'll wait."
Warren Township’s senior three star-ranked defensive tackle Willis Singleton Jr. (6-foot-2, 290 pounds) has drawn some last minute spring evaluation Power Five scholarship offers over the past few days.
"I'm in the middle of taking my finals earlier this week," Singleton Jr. said. "All of a sudden my phone starts blowing up with texts from the coaches from Michigan State and then Missouri. Next thing I know Michigan State offered me and a day or so later Missouri also offers. It's been fun and also really crazy so far this week."
Singleton Jr. has four visits already planned for this summer including taking his first official visit to Cincinnati on June 8.
"This coming weekend I'll be visiting Louisville but that will be an unofficial visit. The following weekend I'll be visiting Illinois on June 7 and that will also be an unofficial visit. I'm going to Cincinnati for an official visit on June 8. On Father’s Day weekend I'm visiting Iowa State and that will also be an unofficial visit. Michigan State and Missouri haven't mentioned anything yet about any visits but if I feel like I want to take a few more visits I will try to fit those in as well."
Nazareth Academy’s senior three star-ranked defensive tackle CJ West (6-foot-3, 285 pounds), who gave Minnesota a verbal commitment back in March, has since decommitted from the Gophers and has reopened his recruiting process.
"It was just a personal decision that I felt I needed to make," West said when asked why he decided to decommit from Minnesota. "I really never had a chance to go and see what any other school had to offer."
West, who is still in touch with Minnesota and who is still considering the Gophers, has also been in contact with more coaches over the past few weeks.
"I've been in contact with the coaches from Texas, Michigan State, Iowa State and Illinois. A lot of the schools who originally recruited me all backed off after I committed so hopefully those schools will pick things back up with me this summer."
Providence Catholic’s senior offensive guard recruit Jake Renfro (6-foot-3, 295 pounds) was also able to add a Power Five offer earlier this week from Syracuse.
"Syracuse was in school a few weeks ago and seems very interested," according to Renfro. "I was hoping they would offer and getting that offer {Wednesday} was a big surprise."
Renfro, who has set up his first official visit to Cincinnati on June 14 is also very interested in Syracuse.
"I know that Syracuse plays in a great conference and that they have some great rivalry games against top programs like Clemson. Syracuse also has a great coaching staff and they also just have a lot to offer. I've heard nothing but really good things about the school and the football program from other people since they offered me. I haven't been able to visit Syracuse just yet but I'm planning to get out to visit Syracuse soon."
