4-Star OLB Michael Divinity Tweets Top 15 Schools

Justin FergusonMay 15, 2015

Almost every team in the SEC and Big 12—and a few wild cards from other conferences—are in the hunt for 4-star outside linebacker Michael Divinity.

On Thursday night, the Marrero, Louisiana, native tweeted out his top-15 list, which includes 247Sports' Crystal Ball favorites LSU and Texas A&M, plus a few important hashtags and emojis.

Standing at 6'2" and 218 pounds and boasting a time of 4.6 seconds in the 40-yard dash, Divinity has good speed and athleticism for his position. If he continues to gain weight and strength, he could become the prototypical defender that all big-time programs covet.

Divinity is currently rated as the No. 53 overall player and the No. 6 outside linebacker in the class of 2016.

According to NOLA.com's Christopher Dabe, Divinity recorded 74 tackles, 17 tackles for loss, eight sacks, five forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries last season at John Ehret High School.

Divinity is cousins and teammates with 3-star linebacker De'jon Harris, and the two have discussed being a package deal for one lucky school. The two SEC West favorites for Divinity are in the mix, along with the No. 2 team on his unordered list from Thursday night.

"We talked about Oregon, LSU and Texas A&M," Harris told the Oregonian's Andrew Nemec. "Those are the three we talked about."

A move to Oregon would have Divinity following in the footsteps of 2014 athlete Kirk Merritt, the 2014 SPARQ champion from Louisiana who joins the Ducks this season.

Still, LSU remains a commanding favorite for Divinity on 247Sports' Crystal Ball, with 13 of the site's 14 predictions in favor of the Bayou Bengals.

Only time will tell if Oregon, Texas A&M or even one of the 12 other schools on Divinity's list can overtake LSU's reported lead for this prized Louisiana talent.

One thing is for sure—this looks like a recruiting saga to watch this year.
