Joe Mixon has been on a recruiting roller coaster this season. After a breakout year for Freedom as a junior, Mixon's performance at the U.S. Army All-American combine launched him into the national spotlight. Today, Joe Mixon announced his final four schools.

In a surprise move, Mixon named the Cal Bears to his list of top programs. Cal Berkeley was Mixon's first official visit and RB Coach Pierre Ingram has been recruiting Mixon for a very long time now.

In no particular order, Mixon named Cal, UCLA, Oklahoma and Wisconsin as his top four choices this morning.

Class of 2015 Freedom offensive lineman Dominic Fredrickson has landed a scholarship offer from the UCLA Bruins. The 6'3 300 bruiser paved the way for superstar running back and Army All-American Joe Mixon to run wild this season for the Falcons. Fredrickson imposes his will on the opponent and plays with a mean streak.

CLA caught up with Dominic to get his thoughts on receiving an offer from a Pac-12 power like UCLA.

Joe Mixon has one official visit remaining. Thus far, Mixon has visited Cal, Washington, Oklahoma and Wisconsin. The 2014 All-American RB will likely take two more unofficials in addition to his last official visit.

Mixon's latest visit to Wisconsin was obviously a great one and the Badgers knocked off No. 16 ranked Northwestern in a classic Big-10 matchup.

In addition to the game, several things stood out to Mixon about his trip to Wisconsin.

After excellent performances at the U.S. Army All-American junior combine in San Antonio, TX, along with the spring 7on7 circuit and The Opening in Oregon, Mixon is arguably the top back in the country.
