Too many to name...about 20 offers and 20 more actively involved. I believe, he's to cut his list to 6 schools shortly. U should expect to see UK, Florida, and USC as 3 of them...

Really? USC is on probation.

From what I've heard he also likes Louisville's head coach, and really liked Michigan. IMO it's a 2 team battle between Chuck Smith at Kentucky and Flordia at this time. I've heard Alabama's Saban has gotten interested in Lamar lately.

Yeah. USC and UK were his favorite teams growing up. Plus, I think, they'll be off probation his Sophomore year.

Alabama has showed more interest lately, but has yet to offer...
I think he would fit great with Coach Strong at UofL and thats coming from a UofL fan lol. The last great LB coming from this state was Micah Johnson and you seen what Chuck Smith and UK did with him. Coach Strong has a list of LB's he's put in the NFL and he can be a starter from day 1 at UofL

Good point... 3 year starter and one of UK's all-time leading tacklers is a huge disappointment for the only 4* LB Chuck Smith has ever had to work with. Sucks that he is on the verge of making the Dolphins' squad as well.
Meanwhile Strong has put a bunch of 4* and 5* in the NFL, and had an equal ammount who either never saw the field, let alone sniffed the NFL.
