Falcon Verbal #9/11

The summer chugs along, hope you are enjoying as we anxiously await the start of camp and then a new (truly) 2014-15 season.

BG football has a new verbal...#9 or #11, depending on how you count the guys from Australia, who are not listed on any of the recruiting sites--except this one.

This young man is Robert Jackson, Jr. of Bishop McNamara HS in Forestville, MD--a town just inside the DC beltway (and the home of Kevin Durant).

Not too much info on Jackson.  He is 5'10 and 161 pounds, and plays CB.  He was highly productive...averaging 10 tackles per game (5.1 of them solo), with 2 sacks, 1 INT and 1 FR.  Their team was 5-5 and 2-5 in their conference.   He was honorable mention all-conference in his league as a junior.    It would appear that we saw him at the OSU camp and went from there.  So far, 7 of our 9 (or 11) players are defensive players.

Welcome to the Falcons, Robert.
