Marist's Jamel Howard Jr. will be making a college decision soon after reopening his recruitment in November.The defensive line prospect will announce his decision on Feb. 1, National Signing Day, and is considering Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and LSU. Howard felt like he needed to go through the process again and has enjoyed learning more about different schools.'I enjoyed it a lot,' Howard said. 'It's something that I needed.'Howard originally committed to Wisconsin in June but reopened his recruitment after the Badgers fired head coach Paul Chryst and decided not to name defensive coordinator and interim head coach Jim Leonhard as their new permanent head coach.
