Two more football verbals




So, I guess I posted the last verbal a little early, as we learned of two more in recent minutes.

The first is the second three-star QB to come BG's way in about a month. The first was Riley Keller of Whitmer. Now, BG has a verbal from Tucker Melton, a 3-star QB from Phenix City, AL. He had offers from Akron, Arkansas State, Troy, South Alabama, Southern Miss, UAB, USTA, along with EKU, Youngstown St and Chattanooga.

He's 6'2" and 220 pounds.  24/7 gives him a 3-star rating.  His twitter profile indicates that he is going to enroll early.  Obviously, he lands at a position of extreme need for BG, even including Keller.

He was a backup his junior year, which makes all this really interesting.  The starter is committed to LSU.  He did get in some games last year and threw 10 TDs, even as a backup.  His coach says he put enough onto film to show he has a strong arm and there was spring practice as well.  He made some big visits, including to Georgia.  The HS team won the state title last year.

The other new verbal is Javonte Kinsey of Jacksonville, FL.  Javonte is also a 3-star recruit with offers from UC, Colorado State, UConn, FIU, South Alabama, Charlotte, East Carolina, FAU, Southern Miss, Troy, USF and UAB.  That's a good list.

He's 6'5" and 200 pounds with a reported 4.5 40, if that's something you might be interested in.  This article here says he goes after ball like a small forward getting a rebound.

That's 3 highly ranked players committed today as BG looks to rebuild it's talent pool.  Welcome to the Falcons, Tucker and Javante.
