Yet another football verbal


Yet another verbal for BG and yet another one from the Sunshine State as Signing Day approaches.  This man's name is Blake Lucky, who is from South Fork HS in Stuart FL, which is on the Atlantic Coast side of the state.  Lucky is also another defensive player---a LB.  He's 6'3" and 197 lbs.  He had an offer from Marshall and is a 2-star recruit on Rivals and is not ranked on ESPN.

He was Class 6A all-state as a junior and a senior.  A paywalled story on the paper in Palm Beach says he is an old school player and there are reports that he knocked his 2 front teeth out playing football.  People in BG are going to like that sort of thing.  He has been ridiculously productive throughout this HS career.  He made 467 tackles in 30 games.  In his senior year, he had 10 TFL and 5 sacks to go with it.  He recovered 8 fumbles in his career.

The bias here is always for football players and I love to see players who produce.  His HS career kind of reminds me of Paul Swan, and he turned into a really good player for us.

Welcome to the Falcons, Blake.
