"I have nine offers right now," said Racean Thomas. "I know I have offers from Alabama, LSU, Auburn, Arkansas, Florida and UCLA. I'd say the schools coming after me the hardest are Alabama and Auburn.
"I really don't have any plans yet for this month. I may go down to LSU or somewhere else. I only camped at Alabama and Auburn last month."
Thomas prefers staying close to home when considering his options. He doesn't plan to drag out the recruiting process.
"The schools standing out to me are pretty much the ones who are in range of my home," he said. "I want my family to be able to come to my games. I don't think I will wait until signing day to make a decision. It will just depend on how I feel and once I really like a certain school."
Thomas discussed several important factors which will play a role in determining his college choice.
"Obviously being close to home is important," he said. "I want to go somewhere I have a good relationship with the coaches. I want to go somewhere with a good environment.
"Right now depth chart is not a concern for me. I know I have a lot of work to do myself. You never know though. It might become a bigger part once I become a senior."
