ALL GLORY TO GOD????????????????‼️ Here it is…
“First off, I want to thank God for blessing me with the opportunity to be able to live out my dream of playing college football at so many different colleges. I want to thank all of the coaches that have recruited me and for all that they’ve done for me and my family. With that being said, these are my Top 3 schools!”
Soli is the son of former Razorback defensive lineman Junior Soli, who had a standout career for the Hogs in the mid-1990s before he was drafted in the fifth round of the 1996 NFL Draft by the San Diego Chargers with the No. 155 pick.
The Douglasville (Ga.) prospect has been a high target for the Hogs and defensive ends coach Steve Caldwell has been recruiting him. Caldwell visited Douglasville during the spring evaluation period.
Soli made an unofficial trip to Arkansas in the spring and has also been to Clemson, Alabama and Vanderbilt this spring.
His other offers include Notre Dame, Florida, Florida State, Louisville, Wisconsin, Michigan State, Stanford, Kentucky, Virginia Tech, Washington and several others.
Auburn making the newly-released top three is definitely notable considering the Tigers just offered last week.
