The 5-foot-10, 186-pounder eliminated four schools from contention. He also hedged his bets a little bit by stating that the list was his "Top 7 at the moment. I'm also open to new interest."
Bryant, the No. 15 player in Missouri, will visit Northwestern for the first time on June 6. He called receiving an offer from the Wildcats in April "an honor" and said that what stands out the most about the program goes beyond the girdiron.
"I would say the way Northwestern's coaching staff prepares you for life after football," Bryant said. "(Head coach Pat Fitzgerald's) main goal is to make you a better man, on and off the field."
A 5-foot-10, 191-pounder, Bryant averaged 9.9 yards per carry while rushing for 1,072 yards and 21 touchdowns last season. He helped CBC finish with a 15-0 record and the Missouri Class 6 state title.
