Moreno Valley running back Jenkins up to four offers

| | Comments (0)

Here is a story from rivals.com on Moreno Valley running back Daniel Jenkins:

Moreno Valley Rancho Verde running back Daniel Jenkins is a two time all-league selection and last season he rushed for over 1,000 yards. Now colleges are taking note as he has four offers and more could be on the way.

Jenkins feels that he has the ability to score every time he touches the ball.
One of those schools that could offer soon is Syracuse University. The Orange have already offered one prospect from Ranch Verde Richard Spencer and that is one reason Jenkins likes the idea of Syracuse.

"Syracuse, they are interested. I have talked to them several times and I stay in contact with Coach White. They have already offered my best friend Richard Spencer and I would be pretty excited if they offered."

Jenkins, 5-foot-9, 171 pounds also went on to talk about what he thinks about when the Orange are on his mind.

"The first word that comes to my mind is tradition and it is a prominent school. Jim Brown went there and he is one of my favorite players of all time. It is just a good school and good environment with great fan support."

When it comes to having a top five Jenkins is not ready to list his favorites just yet. For Orange fans however they do stand apart from other schools looking at Jenkins.

"Syracuse is one of the top schools, if I had a top five they would be in it."

A visit from coast to coast is sometimes tough to figure out, but an Orange offer could get Jenkins on campus pretty quick.

"If Syracuse does end up offering then I will definitely have them in my official visits."

The location of a school will not be a big factor in making a decision, but if Jenkins can go to school with Spencer he thinks that would be fine.

"Location is not going to be a problem," Jenkins said. "It is a plus that my best friend Spencer has already been offered by them. We have always kind of wanted to go to the same college and play ball since we were young. That would be a plus because it is good to know someone that you trust going with you."

Right now Jenkins and Spencer only hold one common offer, but Jenkins thinks that more schools will be taking a look at the two of them.

"We share a Nevada offer and a lot of other schools that have offered me are looking at him also."

As it stands right now with four offers in hand Jenkins thinks there could be a chance he picks one more up this weekend.

"I will be at the UCLA camp this weekend and I might get an offer from them."

A decision is not expected soon, but Jenkins admits if the feeling is right he could pick a school earlier than he plans.

"If a situation presents itself I could make an early decision, but I think I will make a decision sometime before the season is over."
