From the Michigan site...Steven is collecting offers and is looking at anyone who offers. He has unofficially visited ND and Illinois.

I like that Steven supposedly does not spend much time on the Internet seeing what people are saying about him...he is going about this the old fashioned way.

A who's who hopes to corral Caravan's Filer

February 2, 2007
BY TAYLOR BELL
Mount Carmel coach Frank Lenti lovingly refers to linebacker Steve Filer as ''Teddy,'' as in Teddy Bear. The 6-3, 220-pound junior is described as ''mild-mannered'' off the field. He never would be confused with Dick Butkus or Mike Ditka.
''I don't know if he ever had a bad day as far as his personality goes,'' Lenti said.
''I'm goofy off the field,'' Filer said. ''Sometimes I act my age [he'll be 17 in June], but I'm a fun-loving guy. Size doesn't match my personality. It's not how I am. I like to kid around.''
But Filer, perhaps the most recruited player produced at Mount Carmel, more so than NFL stars Donovan McNabb and Simeon Rice, will have to change his persona from nice to nasty as he prepares for his senior season.

By BK...Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Virginia, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Purdue, Minnesota and Wisconsin have all offered.

Once again, the problem of how to define an official offer comes into question...however, this one seems legit as there has been talk of him getting an early offer. Changing the thread title.
