With offers from nearly every elite program in the nation, Vidalia, Ga., prospect Nate McBride is ready to narrow his list down to five. After releasing his list of top choices, Georgia’s top ranked linebacker looks likely to play his college football in either the SEC or Pac-12.

The three Southeastern Conference teams to make his list: Alabama, Auburn and in-state Georgia:

The 6-foot-2, 220-pound linebacker is currently rated as a four-star recruit, the No. 2 inside linebacker, the No. 8 prospect from Georgia and the No. 73 overall prospect in the nation, according to 247Sports Composite Ratings. Other schools to offer McBride include Florida, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Texas A&M, Clemson, Florida State, Miami, Michigan and Notre Dame.
