Scout.com: Golson Will Take His Time
Golson Will Take His Time
?I don?t plan to make my decision too early,? Golson said. ?I?ll probably make it sometime next summer when I feel like I?m mature enough to make that decision.?
Golson, a 6-foot, 165-pound quarterback from Myrtle Beach (S.C.), adds that while UNC is his leader, he hasn?t eliminated anyone from contention.
?North Carolina is in the lead, but there?s a whole bunch of schools out there that I?m very interested in: Georgia, Florida, Texas, South Carolina, Clemson,? Golson said.
Golson says he?s closing in on double-digit scholarship offers.
Growing up a big Tar Heel fan is the foundation of Golson?s feelings towards UNC. The opportunity to play both football and basketball in Carolina Blue makes the situation all the more enticing for Golson.
On Saturday, Myrtle Beach (S.C.) failed to repeat as NCHSAA Clas
s AAA Champions. The Seahawks, who had only lost to nationally ranked Duncan (S.C.) Byrnes prior to Saturday, were defeated by Clinton, 35-26.
?I felt like we didn?t play that complete game [Saturday],? Golson said.
?We came out kind of sluggish. It just took us too long to get going on offense. We knew the defense couldn?t hold that long. So we knew we had to keep scoring with them, but we didn?t do that tonight.?
Golson scored touchdowns on a seven-yard run and passes of 20 and 16 yards. He ended the game with 279 yards on 17-of-33 passes and 16 yards on five rushes.
During the game ? especially late ? Golson showed off a cannon of an arm. ?It?s just that desire to win,? Golson said. ?It doesn?t really seem that far when I throw it. That desire to win just takes over

Golson the best on the best
Golson's strong arm, sharp mind put Myrtle Beach on top
By Josh Hoke - [email protected]
Everett Golson was working without a safety net in 2009, but it didn't stop the upward progression of his career.
Over his first two years, the Myrtle Beach junior had become accustomed to receiver Jamere Valentine making a big play whenever the quarterback and the Seahawks needed it. The big, physical receiver was seemingly always open when Golson needed him, helping him emerge as one of the nation's top signal-callers.
But with Valentine playing at Georgia Southern, Golson, the Toast of the Coast Offensive Player of the Year, had to learn how to trust his younger receivers last fall.
By Janet Blackmon Morgan [email protected] - Everett Golson completed 63 percent (224-of-356) of his passes for 3,529 yards, 47 touchdowns and just three interceptions this season in leading the Seahawks back to the Class AAA championship game.
Myrtle Beach's Golson makes All-State team
Myrtle Beach junior quarterback Everett Golson was named to the South Carolina All-State High School Football Team released Tuesday by The Associated Press.
There was only one team named for offense, defense and special teams and Golson was the lone quarterback. He was one of only four juniors to make the team. The rest of the selections made from nominations from state AP members were seniors.
Golson completed 224-of-356 pass attempts for 3,529 yards and 47 touchdowns with three interceptions this season. He also rushed for 199 yards and five scores in leading Myrtle Beach to a 13-2 record and a Class AAA runner-up finish. The Seahawks lost 35-26 to Clinton in the state championship game.
"He really did a great job this year of spreading the wealth," Seahawks coach Mickey Wilson said. "Jamere was a great receiver and our go-to guy. He was usually our main read on every play. This year Everett did a great job of letting the offense work by making his reads and spreading the ball out to everybody.
"Going into the season all of our receivers were young kids. I think it forced him to make the offense work and go through his reads on every play. There were a lot of times he went to his third and fourth options."
Golson had another sterling campaign for the Seahawks, leading them to the Class AAA state championship game for the second straight year. He completed 63 percent (224-of-356) of his passes for 3,529 yards, 47 touchdowns and just three interceptions.
The Seahawks did have a 1,000-yard receiver in Donte Sumpter, but they relied on a much more collective effort from their receivers this season. Sumpter, Dallas Goodman, Jaquan Wilson, Steven Cobb, Jerrod Jackson and Morgan Byrd all took turns as top targets, making it much more difficult for opponents to focus their efforts on one side of the formation.
"I really depended on [Valentine] a lot," Golson said. "With him gone, I didn't have anybody I could always [fall back on]. This year I tried to do a better job of utilizing all my receivers.
"I feel like I matured a lot as I got to know my receivers better. I had to show a lot of leadership."

Golson will announce his college choice today at 3:45 at his school. He's expected to commit to Butch Davis and North Carolina.

Wow. Huge pick up for N.Carolina. Heck of a building block for Butch Davis.
Good luck to Everett at NC.

Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Appears there's a little "softness" to Everett's verbal to UNC. He will take an official to Notre Dame on Nov. 13th and possibly a trip to Clemson as well. With what is happening in Chapel Hill this year and the fact Roy Williams is busy recruiting point guards, I think Everett is understanding the big picture and is re-evaluating whether or not Chapel Hill is the right fit for him.

Spoke with Everett's coach last night and he mentioned a trip to Clemson and Knoxville is also in the works. He also stated Everett was going to graduate early and early enroll to get a jump start on college. This confused me a bit considering he would give up playing his senior year of hoops by doing this. Anyway, he will be back on the field tonight for the first round of play-offs and looked real sharp all week during practice. Maybe this time off lit a bigger fire under him, if that's possible.
