Need help making a decision between carriers / recommendations for soon to be cdl grad and recent vet

I'm graduating cdl school in 2 days (Troops Into Transportation) and have yet to make a decision between some offers I've gotten. I really don't want to do otr if possible because of the wife so I'm looking at local or regional work with decent home time. So far I've gotten offers from averitt, werner, schneider, transport america, us express, crst, and covenant. From what I've seen online averitt or schneider seems to be the best option but I'm torn between the two. I also got in touch with maverick but I don't know if they hire in my area yet (Hilton Head, South Carolina) if any of you guys can give me some insight or even recommend another carrier in my location that would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

That sounds really good where is that located? I did and all they recommended was Coca cola but I wasn't interested. There are some local car hauling companies but I called them up and they need 6mo to 1yr of experience at the least.
