Stills setting up visits
Standout wide receiver Kenny Stills (Carlsbad, Calif./La Costa Canyon) recently set up his first official visit and has his time frame for when he'll be making his commitment as well.
You won't find a bigger personality than Stills and outside of Robert Woods, you won't find a better receiver out West either. On the recruiting front, Stills said he would like to make his college choice in early December and will take all five of his trips during the season.
"I set up my first visit to Florida [Nov. 28] when they play Florida State," Stills said. "I have all the dates in mind right now and have called the schools but Florida was the only school I've gotten a hold of so far.
"I called Oklahoma and Penn State as well and my 4th and 5th trip will be among four schools. I'm looking at either Oregon or Michigan for one visit and LSU or Tennessee for my last. I'll take an unofficial visit to USC and Cal as well because they're close enough that I don't need to take an official visit to either school."
Riley has two in mind
There isn't a more versatile player out West than Dietrich Riley (La Canada, Calif./St. Francis). Riley, a natural safety, has stood out at every camp he has attended this year. He worked out with the running backs, receivers and defensive backs at the SoCal NIKE Camp and lead NIKE Camp RB coach Jake Campbell called him the best back he worked out at any camp this year.
At the USC Rising Stars Camp, he took reps at both safety and corner and has the size, athleticism and talent to play any of the four positions at the college level.
Riley has long been thought to be a heavy USC lean with much speculation that he could even be a 'silent commitment' at this time.
"I like USC but I haven't committed anywhere," Riley said. "There were rumors that I committed to USC and to Tennessee and neither are true. I honestly don't know where people get their information but I had all these people on Facebook asking me about that and it's just not true.
"I want to take all my trips but I don't have any dates set right now. I know I'll visit Notre Dame and Tennessee but I don't know what other schools I'll visit after that."
