The ESPN Watch List offensive tackle from Nashville Montgomery Bell said coaches from South Carolina visited his school and offered him a scholarship this week. The 6-foot-6, 280-pound junior has scholarship offers from five other SEC schools: Kentucky, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt and Tennessee.
Bars said he's willing to stay in the south to play college football. That would be a departure for his family. He has one brother that plays at Penn State and another that plays at Michigan. Alex has offers from both schools as well as a handful of others. He frequently visited the two campuses last fall.
