Marcus Gilchrist has seen his stock rise. Heading into June, he has over 10 offers. Clemson, South Carolina, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia Tech, Michigan, Georgia are among the schools that have offered.

Gilchrist is working on trimming his list down, but he is not there yet.

"I want to have my list trim down this summer. With my top five, I want to go see a lot of their games. It is going to be tough, but it is something I have to do."

In the process of narrowing his list, Gilchrist will make some trips this summer.

"All of the schools are showing me a lot of respect. Right now, Clemson, Michigan, Georgia, and Virginia Tech are recruiting me the hardest. I want to visit all of them this summer. It will give me a good chance to see the schools and get a feel for the program."

Gilchrist says the trips he makes in the summer does not rule out or guarantee anything for the fall.

"It is going to be a big decision. There is no way for me to know how I am going to feel about a school until I get there."

Billy Napier is staying in hot pursuit of Gilchrist, and he will likely turn up the heat this summer.
