Hirschi junior running back A’Marion Peterson, one of the top-ranked players in the state at his position, released his top six schools yesterday.
A three-star prospect and nationally ranked running back, Peterson was ranked nationally according to ranking composites like 247’s or Rivals.
Recently ranked by us during our review of 2023 running backs, Peterson was able to crack our top ten list easily at the NO. 8 spot.
The list of talent in the 2023 class of running backs is loaded but Peterson is by far one of the biggest, fastest, and most likely to score anytime the rock is in his hand.
Since our posting of the top running back rankings, Peterson’s recruitment has skyrocketed and seen promising returns in the form of scholarship offers.
Our rankings article was posted back in early January, at the time, Peterson only at 8 division I offers. Since then in a matter of less than 60 days. Peterson had nearly doubled his scholarship offers to 16 total.
The latest to offer? The University of Texas. Prior offers include Houston, Cincinnati, UTSA, Oklahoma State, Missouri, USC & TCU.
Last night the announcement came. Peterson had narrowed down his list to just six schools. At the top of the list was Baylor, followed by USC, Cincinnati, Texas Tech, Missouri and the sixth was full of question marks, a mystery yet to be released.
