For Highland Springs (Va.) four-star defensive lineman Kelvin Gilliam, recruiting has not slowed despite the fact that players can’t take visits due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now at 28 offers, he’s heard from plenty of coaches. He said it’s been good to hear more from his potential landing spots, as he prepares to release a list of his favorite schools.

“Mainly, it’s just affected my visits,” Gilliam said. “I had visits to Penn State, Oklahoma and South Carolina, so that messed everything up. I’ve still been frequently talking to coaches.
