Top 5 are Boston College, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Northwestern, and Indiana. Insistent upon taking all 5 visits before deciding. Already went to BC and Notre Dame I believe.

ESPN - Midwest Recruiting Blog

Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema hosted a good group of recruits on official visits last weekend and hoped to capitalize on the recruiting front when it hosted Ohio State in a nationally televised primetime game.

The weekend paid immediate dividends when linebacker Conor O'Neill (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla./St. Thomas Aquinas) committed to the Badgers Monday.
However things don't look anywhere near as promising for Bielema and the Badgers in regard to another defensive player who made an official visit over the weekend, defensive end Davon Custis (Columbus, Ohio/St. Francis DeSales). Custis liked what he saw in Madison, but not enough to put the Badgers at the top of his list.

"I thought Wisconsin was a good school," Custis said. "I thought their football team was great. The facilities are outstanding. I thought the whole situation there -- the football, the town and the academics -- were all very good."

Custis made an official visit to Boston College in September, and though he enjoyed his time in Madison, Boston College remains at the top of his list.
"I just felt like when I visited Boston College I fit in better," Custis said. "I got to know the players more there. I felt like academically Boston College would be a better fit for me."

The 6-foot-5, 220-pound Custis plans to take official visits to Northwestern, Notre Dame and Stanford before selecting a college. He said his trip to Northwestern will be in late December or early January, and Stanford will be sometime in January.

"Boston College and Northwestern are my top two," Custis said.
