GAMBRILLS, MD - I just got back from Quince Orchard's scrimmage down at Arundel high school and had the chance to talk with
Travis Hawkins who told me he narrowed his list and the date when he plans to commit.
The 5-foot-10, 180-pound Hawkins said he trimmed his list of prospective schools down to five last week with Maryland, Penn State, Georgia, Tennessee and Oregon all making the cut.
Hawkins said he has an official visit to Georgia set for Sept. 27, when the Bulldogs play Alabama. Hawkins added the he plans to visit Penn State on Oct. 18 when the Nittany Lions play Michigan.
Hawkins played multiple positions for the Cougars last season and totaled over 1,100 yards of offense. The last time high school football fans saw Hawkins in pads; he racked up 117 yards receiving in the Class 4A title game, including the go-ahead touchdown.
Since that game, the nation has been buzzing about when the senior will commit. Hawkins said he plans on committing by Nov. 3, after he has finished the last of his official visits.
Hawkins held over 20 offers at the time he narrowed his list, with schools like Oklahoma, Ohio State and Florida missing the final five.
