“South Carolina was really nice as well, they’ve got some great things going on,” Mickens said. “They are going to be a top team in the SEC coming this year, too. They said they could see me fitting almost perfectly into their scheme. My length is vital as far as their D-end position. They like their D-ends to be a little bit bigger, and they’ll put that weight on when I get there.”
Mickens will visit Georgia on Tuesday and North Carolina Thursday. He’s also planning to visit Tennessee and Duke. He has been to Michigan State, Iowa, Indiana and Purdue. And his offers include Indiana, Cincinnati, Florida State, Southern Cal, Purdue, Michigan State, Rutgers, Iowa, Minnesota, Louisville, Tennessee, Boston College, Penn State, and Kansas.
