Son of slain NFL great, Steve McNair, has been offered scholarships from the University of Tulsa, West Virginia, Mississippi State, and Southern Mississippi according to KTUL. 

Steve McNair, Jr. is currently a wide receiver form Oak Grove High School in Hattiesburg, Miss., and is part of TU’s 2010 class list of recruits.

The elder McNair, 36, was found shot to death on Saturday in his Nashville, Tenn. condominium with Sahel Kazemi, 20, whom he was apparently dating. McNair was killed after being shot four times, while Kazemi died from a single gunshot to the head.

According to KTUL, as a junior McNair’s son caught 58 passes for 962-yards, averaging 16.6 yards per catch and scoring eight touchdowns.

It appears McNair, Jr. has a promising football career ahead of him and it’s a shame his father will not be around to see him play. A memorial for his father is scheduled for Friday in Nashville.
