Reggie McGee thought his college plans were settled, but it changed when Houston dropped him and left him without a school.
Now, McGee is waiting on schools, with the biggest issue being many programs are already filled at outside linebacker.
The 6-foot-1, 210-pound McGee, who played at Our Lady of Good Counsel (Olney, Md.) is hearing from several schools, including Purdue and Ohio.
Im still in the process of talking to coaches and seeing where scholarships are available, and who is going to commit and not going to commit, McGee said. Ive been talking to Purdue a little bit, but thats all it is right now. They said they like my film.
McGee was having discussions with Purdues former staff before he committed to Houston in the summer, but that group was let go at the end of the season.
Its kind of picking back up with them, but nothing is promised, McGee said. They dont know what they can do yet.
At this point, McGee said he is trying to remain upbeat and positive about the situation while awaiting answers.
Im just looking for an opportunity, he said. I am looking for a school with a good sports marketing program. As far football, I feel as though if I get an opportunity, then I could work my way up and compete to get on the field. Im not looking for promises.
