His mom went with him to on the official visit to UF this weekend. An the fact that he doesn't seem better that USCe dropped him until they had a few decommits an now he is cool with them bodes well for Miami making a run at him this late in the game considering he is a reported cane fan. Now it is just up to staff to see if they actually make a move for him. His states this year are very impressive for a CB, which is why he made 8A All State first team.

Fenton sees a place in USC's defense
Defensive back Rashad Fenton (6-0 180) of Miami is an old name in a new spot on South Carolina's board.
Gamecocks secondary coach Grady Brown offered Fenton last summer, but when he picked up some early commitments for his group, Brown seemed to move on from Fenton. But then, a couple of decommitments from defensive backs later, Brown re-established the lines of communication with Fenton and will bring him in for an official visit Jan. 23.
"We were talking a lot during the summer and we fell off during the year," Fenton said. "After the end of the year, things started kicking back up. It's a very strong feeling (for USC). That's why I'm going to visit. I just wouldn't waste a visit on any type of school. That's one of the schools I'm really thinking about right now."
Fenton played corner in high school but said Brown sees him as a free safety.
"He said I can play the ball very well and that would be a great spot for me since their type of defense allows the free safety to just kind of roam the field," Fenton said. "The free safety spot is something I think about too going up there. It seems like the right scheme for me up there at South Carolina."
Fenton will visit Florida this weekend, USC the next weekend and Louisville on Jan. 30. He's also considering Auburn. He doesn't have a favorite going into his visits. He said his mother will go with him to Gainesville, and he'll take the other visits solo.
This season Fenton had 50 tackles, 5 interceptions and returned 6 punts and kicks for touchdowns.
