Hillsborough High cornerback Terrance Mitchell _ affectionately known in these parts as "T-Rex" _ likes, in order, FSU, Florida, Georgia, South Florida and Tennessee, according to Terriers Coach Earl Garcia. The 5-foot-11, 166-pound Mitchell is No. 32 on The Sentinel's Top 100 state prospects.
I plan to take all of my official visits before I make any decisions," Mitchell said. "I know I am going to take an official to Georgia and Florida State for sure. I don't know about the rest of them yet, I am going to figure that out after the summer. Some of the other schools I am considering are Florida, USF, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Alabama, and North Carolina.
"There is nothing really new. I will (officially) visit Georgia for their game against LSU (10-2). I called FSU today but I didn't reach the coach. I will set up one (visit) to FSU soon. I hope to set up the rest. There are new teams in the mix now. I am starting to like Tennessee, Florida, Alabama and Ole Miss. Those teams showing me a lot more interest as well."
I am still looking at schools like Tennessee, Ole Miss and North Carolina. They are the only schools that have really contacted me.
Fresh off his visit to the University of Georgia, Hillsborough defensive back Terrence Mitchell now is set to check out Knoxville.
Terriers coach Earl Garcia confirmed Tuesday that Mitchell will make an official visit to the University of Tennessee on Halloween weekend.
"If I were a betting man, I'd say his five (finalists) are South Florida, Tennessee obviously, Georgia obviously, the University of North Carolina and Florida State," Garcia said.
Terrence Mitchell of Tampa Hillsborough, one of the nation's top cornerbacks, long has been considered a Florida State lean. But with the recent coaching issues at FSU, other schools are jumping to the top of his list. Many feel Mitchell - nicknamed "T-Rex" - will end up will end up at hometown USF. But keep an eye on Tennessee, as the Vols will get an official visit next weekend when they play host to South Carolina.
North Carolina, Georgia and Florida State also are in the mix, but the Bulls are the team to beat now, with Tennessee making a hard charge. Mitchell already has taken an official visit to Georgia and hopes to take as many officials as he can before deciding.
Fallback? He is rated higher than Wright and some say he is still underrated. He is the #5 CB in the country. I'd rather have him than Wright, and I love Wright. Watch his film. It's one of the most impressive I've seen for a DB. Kid can fly. He hits like he's about 220...
