Marcus Horne (Milwaukee, Wis./Bradley Tech) is one of the top junior prospects in the Badger State. The 5-foot-10, 185-pound running back rushed for 1,384 yards and 15 touchdowns in 2010. He averaged 9.5 yards per carry and scored 13 touchdowns as a sophomore. "Right now I have an offer from North Dakota State," Horne said. "I'm hoping that's going to change soon. I'm hearing from a lot of schools right now. I've received hand-written mail from Mississippi State, Vanderbilt, Indiana, Northwestern and LSU. I'm open right now. I want to see what happens when I go to some camps and combines." Horne is looking at schools that are strong academically. He carries a 3.8 GPA in the classroom. "Northwestern, Stanford, Cal, Northwestern and Vanderbilt are the types of programs I want to take a closer look at."Bales drawing interestA junior prospect to watch will be Alex Bales (Kansas City, Mo./Rockhurst). The 6-3, 200-pound defensive back helped lead the Hawklets to a state title this season and was named second team all-state. "I'm playing basketball right now but football is my first love," Bales said. "Northwestern and Iowa have been in touch with me the most and I'm looking forward to visiting both those schools soon. I'm going to a lot of camps this summer. A lot of schools are going to have to figure out which position will be best for me in their system. I led our team in tackles and receptions. Some schools are saying wide receiver or tight end, while others are telling me safety or linebacker. I don't have any favorites. I'm getting a lot of mail but I feel it's too early to name favorites."Chris Wormley (Toledo, Ohio/Whitmer) is one of the top defensive line prospects in the Buckeye State. The 6-4, 255-pound junior already has several FBS level scholarship offers. "Cincinnati, Michigan, Michigan State, Indiana, Illinois and Ohio State have all offered me a scholarship," Wormley said. "My favorites right now are Michigan, Ohio State, Iowa, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Oregon and Alabama. Those aren't in any order, but those are the schools I'm most interested in visiting or maybe camping at. I haven't thought about when I might make a commitment. I think I want to wait and see what happens after the spring evaluation period." Wormley had 81 tackles and 12 sacks in 2010.Where dreams come trueThe Under-Armour All-American Combine will be held this Sunday at Disney's Wide World of Sports Complex. The Midwest will be well represented and I'm looking forward to checking out the brother tandem of linebacker Jordan Wallace (6-1, 215 pounds) and wide receiver Kevin Davis (5-11, 175 pounds) from Indianapolis (Ind.) Warren Central.Pro-style quarterback Brian Blackburn (Detroit, Mi/Crockett) and his teammate Marquis Thomas, who plays running back, will also be showing their stuff at the combine. South Bend (Ind.) Washington wide receiver Gehrig Dieter holds a scholarship offer from Bowling Green and he says he's looking forward to the football competition drills on Sunday.One of the top junior linebacker prospects in the Buckeye State will be in attendance this weekend in Bryan Cox Jr. (Avon, Ohio/Avon). Cox is the son former NFL linebacker Bryan Cox. Cox will be bringing his teammate Ross Douglas with him. Douglas is a 5-foot-9, 170-pound running back. Akron (Ohio) Archbishop Hoban defensive end LaTroy Lewis will be fun to watch in the one-on-one drills. The 6-4, 250-pounder already holds an offer from Cincinnati. Linebacker Jaylen Prater (Wellston, Ohio/Wellston) also holds an offer from Cincinnati. Running back Will Mahone (Austintown, Ohio/Fitch) has an offer from Toledo. Both Prater and Mahone will be in Orldano this weekend.Clayton (Ohio) Northmont linebacker Kaleb Ringer holds offers from Toledo and Cincinnati while defensive end Diesel Washington will be one of the most sought after prospects in the nation. Washington will prove a tough test for the offensive lineman attending the combine.
