After visiting a number of schools and a lot of consideration 2015 Godby (Fla.) offensive linemen Brendan Loftus has narrowed down his choices to 3 schools.
“I’ll be choosing from Miami, FAU and Wisconsin and I’ll be committing tomorrow around 2:20.”
While Loftus is excited to see the recruiting process come to an end, he does admit he will miss the feeling of being recruited.
“I think it will be bitter sweet just because I enjoyed going around all the colleges and meeting the new coaches and the fans on twitter.”
The Hurricanes are a school that made the 6’7 295 pound blocker a priority and got him on campus for an eye opening visit.
“I just liked how it’s such a nice campus for how small the population is at the University of Miami; It’s a prestigious education you can get there and it’s a private school. Another thing I liked about it was the coaches, how they interact with everyone. If you ask a question, they will answer it and they don’t mind taking time out to answer it.”
While Wide Receivers coach Brennan Carroll is the area recruiter for Loftus, he mostly speaks with Offensive Line coach Art Kehoe and Offensive Coordinator James Coley.
“Coach (Art) Kehoe and Coach (James) Coley I’ve been talking to them a lot. (Laughs) Coach
(Art) Kehoe is a great guy, he just knows what he’s talking about. He’s been in this business for a long time and I don’t think he’s going to go anywhere from Miami.”
The FAU Owls have caught the eye of the Godby product as a team on the rise and he has taken notice of their recruiting efforts.
“I like how they’re going after these top recruits, not like myself, but like they had Jordan Scarlett committed there at one time and they’re really bulking up their football program.It would just be cool to be apart of a winning tradition there and start it at the school.”
While he never got a chance to make a visit to Wisconsin, the Badgers are still in consideration with Loftus.
“I like Wisconsin because when coach Bush came down here in the spring he told me a lot of things about it and I often consider them ‘O-Line University’. It’s something I would want to be apart of and be in that brotherhood.”
When asked what all those schools display in common, a family feel was most important.
“All these schools are family oriented, they like doing things as a team and everything as a team. Also just how the coaches interact with the players.”
Loftus will shut down the recruiting process after his commitment tomorrow. As for a preview for tomorrow.
“(laughs) No hints.”
