Heaps' decision to be announced Thursday

Jake Heaps, widely regarded as the No. 1 prep quarterback in the country, is announcing Thursday his decision about where he will play college football.

Heaps, who is LDS, has received scholarship offers from 26 schools — Alabama, ASU, BYU, Cal, Colorado, Duke, Florida State, Georgia, Kansas, LSU, Miami, Minnesota, Mississippi St, Nebraska, Notre Dame, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon State, Pitt, Stanford, South Carolina, Tennessee, UCLA, Boise State, UW and WSU.

BYU was included in his Top 5, along with Washington, LSU, Cal and Tennessee. It has been reported that Heaps’ decision was between BYU and Washington.

Heaps has been scheduled to participate in Junior Day at BYU, which is expected to feature many other highly touted recruits. Junior Day begins Friday.

A representative of the Heaps’ family, John Davis, sent an announcement this afternoon about his impending announcement under the headline, “Heaps to announce college selection,” with the subhead that reads, “Expect the Unexpected.”
