Marcel Southall had the kind of month every recruit looking to get noticed by college coaches and evaluators hopes for.
If you really want to be specific, the Duncanville, Texas, 2016 prospect had the two weeks every recruit hopes for.
On April 20, the rising defensive lineman picked up his first offer from Texas Tech. From there, he added a second offer. And then a third. Then a fourth.
By May 1, he had five offers, including three from Big 12 stalwarts Texas, Baylor and Oklahoma. And after Tuesday, Southall added his first two SEC offers and another Big 12 offer to put his total at eight: Texas Tech, Illinois, Baylor, Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, Ole Miss and Kansas.
