Seantrel Henderson (Buffalo Bills)

I cut and pasted this from the interview with Seantrel's parents. Go back a few pages to see it. It probably means nothing but who knows.

sGH: How about the USC visit?

Bree: The city is beautiful. They have a lot of support too. The football program is amazing.

Sean: The biggest thing with USC is they play in LA which is the second largest media market so he'll have a better chance to be known worldwide. They had an up and down this year but they have a great education there and great players and coaches. We spent a lot of time with them.

All-USA football: Henderson, Joyner named players of year

The All-USA high school football team was chosen by USA TODAY's Jim Halley with consultation with high school coaches and recruiting analysts, including Tom Lemming of CBS College Sports and Jeremy Crabtree of Rivals.com.

The offensive player of the year is Seantrel Henderson, an offensive tackle from Cretin-Derham Hall in St. Paul.

...
Offensive player of the year
SEANTREL HENDERSON
Offensive tackle for Cretin-Derham Hall, St. Paul
Ht: 6-8. Wt. 301.
Why him: Led his team to state title and was player of the year on the Associated Press' all-state team. Despite his size, he's remarkably agile and is one of the top basketball players in Minnesota. In the summer, he played on an AAU team with the No. 1 basketball recruit, Harrison Barnes.
Little-known fact: He weighed 7 pounds, 9 ounces even though he was born a month early.
Where next? Plans to announce on signing day Feb. 3. Has had official visits to Florida, Notre Dame, Southern California and Ohio State and unofficial visits to Minnesota and Iowa.
Recent read: "I just starting reading The Blind Side. I saw the movie first."
How did you get into football? "I played Pee Wee for Folwell Park. I just played on the line. I played two years up because I was big."
Football or basketball? "Basketball has always been my favorite sport. If I could play in the NBA, I would pick that over the NFL."
On recruiting: "The hardest part is trying to keep up with recruiting and your other personal things, like school, friends and family. Trying to balance everything out is hard with time management. The best part is when you go on visits and get to do fun things and look at schools."
Favorite musician: Drake (a Canadian rapper).
Best athlete to come out of your school: "Probably (Minnesota Twins catcher) Joe Mauer."

The 6-8, 337-pound offensive tackle has made official recruiting visits to Notre Dame, Southern California, Ohio State and Florida. NCAA rules allow five official visits, and Henderson's fifth visit is yet to be decided among Iowa, Oklahoma, Miami and Minnesota.

He plans to announce his college decision on Feb. 3, which is the first day football recruits can sign letters of intent.

Henderson's father, Sean Henderson, said no college has emerged as a favorite.

"If all trips could be official, he would have taken eight official trips," Sean Henderson said. "It's all about becoming comfortable.

"We want to find what's going to be the best fit for him."

Not overly excited about that being a factor in Dad's mind . . .

not even entire North America really. That position really doesn't get much exposure.

Until you start winning awards. You need exposure to football people not the "entire North America". The NFL scouts are going to know about him. The exposure he would get from USC would be what, better agents?

For Reggie Bush and McKnight it has meant $200,000 apartments and Land Rovers. Not sure about the exposure part, but I would have loved to have this type of living when I was in college.
