2015 University School running back Jordan Scarlett is coming off a season in which he had big roles in some of his school’s key games and is going to be looked to this year in big situations.
“I knew it was gonna come eventually, but I’m ready for it and I’m ready to be able to put the team on my back. I’ll do it any day.”
University school is considered by many to be the favorite to make it back to the state championship and Scarlett is just focusing on keeping everyone heads level.
“It feels good, but we gotta stay humble and hungry. That’s what we did last year and we came out victorious, hopefully our family comes together this year and we can do it again.”
Recruiting wise, the 5’10 200 pound runner has quite the list of schools after him with almost every school in the nation sending mail.
“Some Florida schools are sticking out right now, I’d have to say FSU, UM, Florida and UCF.”
The University school product is listening to all schools, but has intentions to stay close to home.
“I want to stay close to home.”
Florida is a school Scarlett has yet to visit but has still heard plenty of good things from his teammates who did get the chance to see it.
“My friends all say the campus is beautiful and they love the coaches and how the offense is ran. I just can’t wait to go see it for myself.”
The Seminoles are another school that really intrigues the top ranked running back and has stayed in contact with them for a while.
“I talk to the coaches a lot, I contact them every week or so. He just shows me a lot of love and I can’t wait to see them too.”
Miami is the hometown school that Scarlett does like, but it seems as if the Hurricanes aren’t following back with as much interest.
“I have a lot of people who went out to UM and they said it’s a nice place to be, but sometimes UM I have to say they don’t really show that much love when I call they don’t answer the phone and when I go out to the campus. They’re a good school and I’ll always love UM.”
Many would wonder if the Hurricanes were to increase their recruiting efforts with Scarlett, would them being late compared to other schools affect the way he looks at them.
“Oh no, it wouldn’t make any difference I would look at them the same way I look at everybody when I make my decision.”
Besides locations Scarlett has a few other factors that will play into his decision.
“Education, playing time and how the family atmosphere is at the school.”
