Another Northwestern talent, Eli Rogers, loves The U

Junior ESPNU 150 Watch List prospect Eli Rogers (Miami/Northwestern) has a written offer from Central Florida and is receiving interest from Miami-FL, Florida State, Florida and Florida International, ESPN affiliate Web site InsideTheU.com reports.

To no one's surprise, he favors the hometown Hurricanes, "I love the University of Miami. I like their offense, but I would like for them to spread the ball around more just because I am a receiver and you can never give receivers the ball enough. I like their system though and I feel like I can play in that system."

Rogers has caught 32 passes for 503 yards and 10 touchdowns this fall.

Vols lead for JUCO lineman John Cullen after visit

Fullerton College (Calif.) offensive lineman John Cullen updated ESPN affiliate Web site OUInsider.com on the current status of his recruitment.

"Right now my No. 1 school is Tennessee," he said. "It is the first school that I have visited. I have taken unofficial visits to UCLA and San Diego State, but Tennessee was my first official and I really enjoyed it. I have never seen SEC Football before in person, and I have never seen a stadium like that."

Cullen, who is holding 14-15 total scholarship offers, also lists Auburn, Oklahoma, Miami-FL, Kansas State and Utah as his other top schools.

"The main thing is do I have a chance to play at that school? And I am looking to get out of California, so distance is not a factor at all. And I want to play in a pro style offense. That is the type of offense that I have played in since high school, and the type of offense that we run at Fullerton," added Cullen.
