At the moment, the 6-foot-5, 245 pound DL is weighing offers from the best schools in the nation, including Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Miami, LSU, Michigan, Notre Dame and Oklahoma.

According to the 247Sports crystal balls, Wayne is expected to commit to Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes, but a lot can happen before Wayne announces his commitment

Could Dan Lanning and the Ducks make a serious push? It seems possible, depending how the visit to Autzen Stadium and the Oregon campus went.
