a critical down"

Henderson's top school: MSU, Ole

MSU: "They are showing me a lot more
interest now than they were. Coach Melvin Smith came by the week before Spring
practice started. He wanted to see me do some agility drills and things like that.
I am starting to hear a lot more from MSU than I was."
Ole Miss:
"They are about the same as they have always been. They are still on
top. I am going to their 3 Day Camp in June, and I am hoping to get an offer from
them after that camp, at least I hope so. It has been kind of quiet around here
lately, as far as Ole Miss goes. Hopefully they will pick it back up."
Alabama:
"There is not any one thing about Alabama. It is just a school I am interested
in. I am going to go to their 4 Day camp in June so they can get a good look at
me."
