"I've built a really good relationship with the coaches at USC," said Prater when asked why USC is his top school. "I've been talking to Coach Norton and Coach Carroll and I want to get out there and check it out. I talk to Coach Morton a lot, I talk Coach Norton just about every other day and I just talked to Coach Carroll two days ago."
“I have been watching USC for a longtime and the players that they put out,” Prater told our own Kevin Carden back in early May. “They produce every year, so it’s a really good school and I have to strongly consider them as my choice. I like the big receivers they put out and the way they produce, and get them NFL-ready. That’s another key thing."
