North Gwinnett QB lands first offer

Mike Tamburo, the 6-foot-1, 180-pound left-handed junior quarterback for North Gwinnett, has received his first scholarship offer.

“Tulsa has offered,” Tamburo said late Tuesday. “And Central Florida and South Florida are close to offering.

“And there are a lot of other schools real interested, like Vanderbilt, Texas Tech, Clemson, Oklahoma State, SMU and Alabama. Tennessee, Auburn and South Carolina want me to come to camp.”

Tamburo has visited Central Florida, South Florida and attended Georgia’s spring game during the past 11 days.

Once quarterback Aaron Murray of Plant Senior High in Tampa, Fla. chooses a school, several programs will likely call on Tamburo.

“Everybody has offered Aaron Murray,” Tamburo said. “After that, I’m the next person in line at a lot of schools.”

Tamburo, who is on spring break this week, hopes to visit several campuses in the upcoming days.

“I’m considering going to Texas Tech, SMU, Oklahoma State and Tulsa,” he said. “I may take a flight out there later this week.”
