With around 40 written scholarship offers, Good Counsel (Wheaton, MD) linebacker Akeem Hebron has established himself as one of the top prospects in the country. Unfortunately for most of those schools, it appears he has focused his recruitment to a select number of schools.

“Basically, Florida and Georgia are my top two schools,” said Hebron, who has family in the state of Georgia. “I think Georgia and Florida stand out because I have good relationships with the coaches. I talk to each of them pretty much every week. I really like the assistant coaches from both schools. And I like coach [Urban] Meyer’s personality. He’s aggressive and I like that in a coach.
