As one of the nation’s premier pass-rushers in the 2016 class, 5-star defensive end Shavar Manuel’s recruitment is sure to be one that captures plenty of attention in the coming months.
According to Josh Newberg of Noles247, the 6’4”, 290-pounder from IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, named a top three that included Auburn, Florida and LSU.
In Newberg’s report, Manuel also mentioned Clemson and Florida State as schools that are still in the running for his commitment.
This news is a stark departure from the theory of Manuel being a heavy lean to the Seminoles that was in place for most of the offseason.
