DEL.ICIO.USSW DeKalb WR Mitchell impressed after official visit
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Categories
Before the weekend, Southwest DeKalb receiver Jacoby Mitchell was unsure how he would react to the small-college-town atmosphere of Western Carolina.
But his official visit to the Cullowhee, N.C., school, which he took with three of his SWD teammates this past weekend, really caught his eye, especially the improvements to the football program.
“I was really impressed by Western,” Mitchell said in a text message Sunday. “It was real laid-back and a place I can really focus on my craft and on athletics. The campus has a new football facility (which) has new astro turf and they’re getting a new jumbo tron.”
Mitchell is intrigued by Western’s spread offense, but said he’s still “trying to weigh out my options once I take the four other visits (which has yet to be determined).”
The 6-foot-1, 190-pounder also has offers from Delaware, Furman, Georgia Southern, Eastern Michigan, Bowling Green, Alabama-Birmingham, Middle Tennessee and Akron.
