Many prospects have been narrowing down their respective school lists recently, and Harrisburg High School (PA) tailback Mikell Simpson is no different. Simpson narrowed his list to 11 schools last week, and looks forward to the ensuing Evaluation period in order to help narrow his list further.

“It’s down to 11,” Simpson said. “They are Michigan State, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Carolina, West Virginia, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Ohio State, Virginia, UCLA and Alabama. Right now they are all even except for the 3 schools (Nebraska, UCLA, Virginia) I mentioned that are recruiting me the hardest. Once September starts, they’ll all be even until I can talk to coaches and see how they are and if I’m comfortable with them. Depending on how the conversations go, I’ll see who I like the best and who I don’t like.”

Simpson plans to have all 5 official visits scheduled by the end of his senior season.

“By the end of my season I’ll have narrowed it down to my 5 official visits,” Simpson said. “As I go, I’ll narrow things down. Then I’ll have my official visits set by the end of the season. I’ll take my visits and then make my decision, but I probably won’t announce it publicly until Signing Day.”
