Douglas said he learned of the offer during a conversation with Tennessee defensive coordinator*John Jancek.
I was excited to have an SEC offer, said Douglas, who also claims offers from Florida State, West Virginia, Illinois, Kansas, Central Florida and Utah State.
He just was saying he would love for me to come in and play for them, because they need (defensive backs). He was saying they like my size, my break on the ball, me being physical, and I can come down and tackle.
The 6-foot-3, 202-pound Douglas said he already has talked with the Vols about trying to make it to Tennessee in the coming weeks.
(Jancek) was talking about me coming down there for the Orange Carpet Day (on June 21), I believe, said Douglas, who plans to graduate from Garden City in December and enroll at the college of his choice in January. He wanted me to come down there. He said he was going to let me know (more about it).
I mean, I want to visit there.
Douglas said hes hoping to visit a handful of schools this summer, including Florida State, Tennessee, Central Florida and probably West Virginia, before narrowing his list of college choices to a handful of teams.
You only get five (official visits), so I dont know which schools I want to visit, he said. I was thinking about using all unofficials during the summer, and then I can go on an official so I can see a game, see the atmosphere and stuff.
I think after I start going on my unofficials in the summer, I think Ill start narrowing it down some. After I go on the unofficials, Im probably going to have it at least down to five by the end of the summer. And then Im going to go on those five official visits, and then Im going to see from there.
For now, he said hes open to going wherever, and he said theres not really anyone standing out among the teams currently pursuing him.
He insisted that geography wont be a major factor in his decision.
