BG has returned to Ohio for its latest football verbal.  This one is Joey Formani of Lakewood St. Ed's, a 5'11'' 205 RB who also had offers from Akron and Youngstown State.  24/7 rates him as a 2-star player.  His teammate Brian Kilbane is also a commit.

The Northeast Ohio Sports Insiders ranked him as the high school player of the year in northeast Ohio.  Here's part of what they said

The Eagles season ended on Friday night in the third round of the playoffs to Massillon, but all season long Formani was the go to offensive star for the Eagles, putting up over over 1,500 all-purpose yards. 

Formani put on a show in an Eagles win over Cincinnati Winton Woods back on September 28th, scoring six touchdowns, including a 98-yard kickoff return late in the first half of the victory, again showing his versatility not only in the run game put on special teams.

He was also all-district "athlete" and was first-team all-state.  (Kilbane was as well).

Welcome to the Falcons, Joey.

That makes 31 young men who have at some point in the last year tweeted their commitment to BG...and I have not seen where anyone has been lost...though that is certainly possible.  A couple of things to remember...sometimes you lose guys right at the end, and sometimes players are recruited as PWOs but that's not revealed in their tweeting.

We will know all we need to know on Wednesday.
