OL Xavier Nixon (6-7 270) of Fayetteville, NC plans to trim his long list of offers down to ten or five by the end of next week. Clemson and USC are among Nixon's offers, but he said neither is guaranteed a spot on his final list. "I'm not sure on either one making the cut," Nixon said. But between the two, Clemson appears to have the better chance. "I've been around Clemson a lot more than South Carolina," he said. "They've been around a lot longer. I talked to coach (Brad) Scott about two days ago. He came by the school." Nixon said by Thursday or Friday of next week, he'll know the schools he plans to focus on in the next phase of his decision making process. "I'm looking at where I can get a degree, have early playing time and win a championship," Nixon said. Last weekend he made visits to LSU, Auburn and Florida. He hasn't planned any other visits but he wants to make one to Miami. Nixon has over 40 offers representing most of the top programs in the country.
