DEL.ICIO.USThomson safety Eubanks closing in on first offer

Middle Tennessee State will likely extend a scholarship offer to Thomson senior safety Darius Eubanks in September.
Eubanks, who has seen some action at the receiver position for the Bulldogs but is primarily being recruited as a safety, has the potential to wind up with several offers this fall.
“I think Middle Tennessee State will be the first team to offer,” predicted Eubanks, a member of the AJC’s Georgia Top 150.
“They’ll probably have coaches coming to our first couple of games.”
Eubanks, who intercepted six passes last year, was forced to move from safety to cornerback during the midpoint of the 2007 season when injuries struck the Thomson secondary.
“I only got to play five games at safety before folks started getting hurt in the defensive backfield,” said Eubanks, who is an academic qualifier. “Now, a lot of schools have said they want to come see me play a few games and make sure I’m the real deal and not a fluke from last year. Then they’ll offer.”
Realizing it’s a longshot to receive an offer from an ACC or SEC program entering his senior season, Eubanks says he’ll still likely attend one of Georgia’s first two home games.
“I still get letters from Georgia every other day,” he said.
“I’m also hearing from Wake Forest, North Carolina, N.C. State and Alabama.”
