Wake in the lead for Lamar

Hillsborough running back Lindsey Lamar.

Michigan is the latest to offer a scholarship.

Wake Forest has taken the lead in the fight for his services.

Lamar, whom SuperPrep rates as the state's 63rd-best senior prospect, now lists Wake Forest, Michigan and USF as his top three at the moment. Here's what he had to say about each ...

Wake Forest: "They like small, fast, backs. And I like the fact it's a private school. That means they'll be less people in the classroom."

Michigan: "I like the coach up there and everything about him."

USF: "It's home. I went to a camp there one time, and I liked the way they practiced."

Lamar hopes to take official visits to each school. He already has one planned for Iowa State in October. Additionally, he is weighing scholarship offers for track from Georgia and UCLA (He's a sprint standout, too).

"I want to go somewhere I can do both," Lamar said.
