Two New Falcon Football Verbals...

After a long down period, BG has two new football verbals.  This brings the total to 13 (so far as we know) and Coach apparently has said we might end up with 14, so we're possibly getting close.

Both players are from Florida RBs.

The highest ranked one is a RB named Eric Harrell.  He is a 3-star recruit on espn.com, who shows him as our second best recruit to date.  He plays for Dr. Phillips in Orlando  (WR Chris Gallon is also a Dr. Phillips product).  That's the state's #1 team.  Harrell scored 3 TDs in a recent state playoff game and 2 TDs in the next game.

He reportedly had offers from Kansas and FIU.  The ESPN report on him is pretty positive, stating that he can run inside and out and catch the ball as well.  Its possible he ends up at BG because he's only 5'8" and 190 but from the description it seems like he could be really good player for us.

The other player is also a RB from Orlando, named Brandon English (He attends Evans).  He committed to BG even though he has yet to visit the school.  BG showed him a lot of love, and Clawson and Ruggerio are expected down there soon.

English has also been a productive runner.
As a senior, English had 975 yards and 18 rushing touchdowns on 155 carries and caught nine passes for another 221 yards and two touchdowns.
He reportedly had offers from Temple, UCF, UMass and Middle Tennessee among others.

Eric, Brandon....Welcome to the Falcons!!
