I'm not ready to release it yet but these three schools have great programs, great coaching staffs and great football tradition."USC is in there too and I'll be visiting there in January. I just talked to Coach [James] Cregg [Thursday] and I'm really feeling USC a lot right now. That last trip is open and I'm still trying to figure that one out.
