Falcon Verbal #18

After a long break, there's some news on football recruiting.  The Falcons have a commitment from Bryan Baird of Bellbrook, a veritable tongue-twister of a player.  He is a D-End, and had originally committed to Ball State, but apparently had second thoughts when the coaching changed.  Based on the ESPN.com numbers. Baird is the top ranked player in a class in which each of the top 3 players is a d-lineman.  He is 3-starts and a "76" on the ESPN scale.

Baird is 6'4" and 227 lbs, and started his own website to promote himself.

Based on the stats on his website, he had a HUGE junior season.  I haven't been able to find very much about his senior year, but it is looking like this guy is a pretty good football player.

One last thing...last year, BG got some of its best players in the very last days before signing day, so we'll be keeping a close eye on the recruiting wires over the next few days.
