Two New Football Verbals

BG has netted two more verbal commits for football over the past couple of days.

The first has a name that is too perfect.  After four years of rooting for Boo Boo Gates, BG was looking at a name deficit...until NOW.  The first verbal is BoBo Jones....just take two letters out and you are ready to roll.  BoBo is also a safety (I know, right?) from Xenia, OH.

There isn't a huge amount of info about Mr. Jones...here is his stat line from his junior year.  I'm guessing BG saw him play at a camp and decided he had the stuff to be FalconFast.

The other is Brandon Harris of Cleveland Shaw.  BG is really working the Cleveland area hard...something that will be very popular with big parts of the fan base.  Harris is a WR/LB.  He's 6'3" and 205.  This article says he was recruited as an "athlete" to BGSU...which means he could go a number of places.  With that size, he'd be dangerous in any position.

Cleveland.com on his junior year:

Harris caught 39 passes for 468 yards and four touchdowns as a junior for the Cardinals.
Welcome to the Falcons, Brandon and BoBo.
