OL Blaine Schafer Update

OL Blaine Schafer visited three schools before Christmas and has been thinking about his college decision. Is he close to making that decision? Will he visit anymore schools?

One 2008 prospect that Rocket Digest has kept you informed with over the last several weeks is offensive lineman Blaine Schafer. Blaine visited Western Michigan earlier in the year, and then Toledo and Bowling Green in December and seemed ready to sort out his options.

Blaine last told Rocket Digest that he had offers from Toledo, Western Michigan, Bowling Green, and Ball State and was considering all four of them. At the time he had not heard back from Ball State yet on an official visit, but wanted to start working on making his college choice.

However, things changed a bit the other day. "Toledo got a third offensive lineman commitment and that is all they were planning on taking," Blaine Schafer told Rocket Digest this evening. "I don't know. We're still talking and trying to figure something out," he added.

With that in mind, Blaine is defenitly looking over his options. When Rocket Digest spoke to Blaine this evening he had just got off the phone with a coach from Ball State. "I just got off the phone with them (Ball State) and we are trying to setup a visit for next weekend," said Blaine.

Blaine says that he is still interested in all four schools; Toledo, Western Michigan, Ball State, and Bowling Green. He mentioned that he will likely make his decision after he gets back from the visit to Ball State.

Stay tuned with Rocket Digest over the coming days for any new developments on Blaine's options with Toledo and the other schools recruiting him. Also be on the lookout for his commitment to one of the four schools very soon.
