IN HIS OWN WORDS...
Saunders on the latest happenings in his recruitment:
"Cockeye and Miami just offered me this week," Saunders said. "The schools I've probably been talking to the most are
Clemson,
Kentucky,
Nebraska, Miami and then
Michigan and a couple of others."
On recent visits:
"I saw Clemson and
Georgia in the spring," Saunders said. "Then I also saw Nebraska and Kentucky in the spring, but that is about it."
On what stood out during his spring visits:
"With Clemson, I mean I just love spending time with coach
(Garrett) Riley because he just got there and I was able to learn more about their offense. Clemson is just an awesome place, I love everything about Clemson. They probably have as strong of an argument as any school does for "QB U." With
Trevor Lawrence,
Deshaun Watson and coach
(Tajh) Boyd who is still on staff. Boyd is a great dude and I love talking to him."
"With Kentucky, it was good to meet with coach
(Liam) Coen," Saunders said. "I've built a great relationship with him."
"Then with Nebraska, the whole coaching staff is just super cool," Saunders said. "I love everything about Nebraska, we will just have to see how it goes."
On upcoming visit plans:
"I'll be going to Clemson on June 1," Saunders said. "Then I think I am going to Miami and
Oregon. Then with the others - I just haven't figured out all of the summer visits yet."
On a commitment timeline:
"I mean, I'd love to get it done before season," Saunders said. "But, if it's not there and I just don't have that feeling yet, then I'm just going to play it through and see what happens after the season. I could drop a top schools list at some point. You know, whenever I know my top schools and then just see how it plays out from there."
