South Pointe football coach Bobby Carroll needs a bigger mailbox and could use a few more telephones.
The phone on his desk and his cell phone, which plays the "Monday Night Football" theme when it rings, were in use at the same time on April 3.

Coaches from around the country have been calling as regular as the tide. They are asking about his junior class, a group of talented rising seniors being recruited by their respective schools.

None is getting more attention than Stephon Gilmore, a 6-foot-1, 190-pound quarterback heading into his senior season who's considered the No. 2 player in South Carolina by several scouting services.

It was hard to miss them. On top of one stack was a smoky plastic envelope that had Gilmore's and South Pointe's names on it. It was easy to see a large Michigan helmet on the letter, which is most likely why the Wolverines use a see-through envelope.

Others were scattered about the table -- Rutgers, Connecticut, Southern Cal, Miami and Illinois. Those schools are inquiring and have yet to make offers. The list of those who have is impressive -- Alabama, Clemson, Colorado, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Maryland, Michigan, N.C. State, Penn State, Tennessee, Virginia and South Carolina.

Much more at link. Michigan and Virginia have just offered.
