Scout.com > Football Recruiting Basil Close to Decision Story URL: http://recruiting.scout.com/2/833891.html Matt Alkire SuperPrep.com Jan 27, 2009 Two-star defensive end Tahir Basil has picked up a few more scholarships since we last spoke with him and they are definitely on varying levels of competition. We talked to the Philadelphia, Pa., product about his future and where he sees things shaping up at this moment. Roman Catholic High School defensive end Tahir Basil is holding offers from Lehigh, Lafayette, IUP and Delaware State and plans to make a few more visits before he comes to a final decision. The 6-foot-1, 242-pound pass rusher sounds like he has his mind made up, but we’ll see about that after his next visits. “I feel really comfortable at Delaware State and they are definitely my leader right now. All I have to do now is visit Lafayette and I’m going to make my decision after that visit if I can. It really comes down to how my visit at Lafayette goes and what my family and I decide when we sit down.” Basil finished his senior season with 65 tackles and six sacks.
