It's probably more definite as a student than an athlete.

Rivals.com is reporting that DB Tim Hayter from Trinity Valley CC has also signed letter of intent with Lamar.

Thats a good start. Get some kids who have experience with the balance of college life with sports plus some the promising high school students and Lamar will be headed in the right direction. The better talent you bring first helps bring in more later.

Many players "consider" colleges they would like to play for. Don't be fooled by this. What's important are the colleges that actually "made an offer" to a particular prospect. Big, big difference.

Did I say he was offered? I know the difference, but rivals actually lists the schools that players say they are recruited by, that means sent information, contacted by coaches etc. If you look at his profile he has an offer from Illinois State and interest from SH and Baylor. This is from the guy's mouth or the coaches. Of course he could of made this up... but i'm just typing what I see.

He had offers from Illinois St. and SHSU.
