Football Nabs RB Verbal


Mar'Kel Porter has committed to BG.  He's a RB, 6'1" and 220, from Lancaster, Texas.  Lancaster is in the southern part of the DFW Metroplex.

Mar'Kel is a '24 player who had offers from Grambling, Texas State and Toledo, according to 247.  There is mention elsewhere of a Purdue offer.

Porter had 24 carries as a junior at 5.5 yards per carry and 3 TDs.  Lancaster's top 2 RBs last year both went P5 (Nebraska and Arizona State) so he didn't have much chance to shine.  

That's big for a back.  The only comparable back on our current roster to that is Jaison Patterson.  He is reported to run a 4.5.

Welcome to the Falcons, Mar'Kel.
