He narrowed his list down to 12 schools from 31 current offers. However, he said there is still room for other programs to enter the mix.
“Other schools can still be in play,” Rushing said. “This where I am today.”
He has visited all 12 schools except for Michigan and Washington. He was most recently at Oregon this past weekend. The visit went well and he felt like a priority.
Other schools he visited this season include Arizona twice, Notre Dame and Arizona State.
Rushing hopes to continue narrowing down his list over the next few months.
“I am just trying to start moving towards a top 5 by the end of the spring,” Rushing said.
