Westlake LB Dearco Nolan favors Ole Miss, North Carolina

One of the reasons Westlake linebacker/defensive end Dearco Nolan is leaning toward Mississippi is the way the Rebels play defense.

Nolan was impressed with Ole Miss’s second-half defense in Saturday’s 24-20 loss at Alabama, during which the Rebels came back from a 24-3 halftime deficit.

“They’re hard-nosed,” said the 6-foot-3, 235-pound Nolan, who ran a 4.49-second 40 at the Auburn camp, the second-fastest time among DE’s. “A lot of people say they have the one of the best defenses in the country.”

Nolan also likes North Carolina, which also has offered a scholarship. “They’re a real up-and-coming program,” he said.

Nolan also has offers from Iowa State, West Virginia, Miami-Ohio and Middle Tennessee. He said several other programs have started looking at him, and he thinks he may have a double-digit number of offers by season’s end. In seven games, he has nine sacks and an interception.

“A lot of people are taking notice,” he said. “I’m a play-maker. I always seem to be making plays.”
