So, these are the words of Hassan Belton, who says he is coming to BG after being committed to UTEP. He was playing at Butler Community College in Kansas. He's a 6'0 and 210 lb LB.Blessed 🙏🏽🦅 pic.twitter.com/ZejykFKMel— Hassan Belton (@allamerican_5) January 18, 2018
It's a bit of a story. He is from South Carolina, where he was all-state twice. He was a 2-star recruit on 247, 3-star with Rivals. He then went to Western Carolina, where he played for one season, making 11 tackles. Then, for the 2016 season he transferred as a walk-on to South Carolina, where he sat out under NCAA transfer rules.
So, for 2017 he went to Butler Community College, which is in Kansas. This is a highly ranked program. Belton had a very productive season. He made 67 tackles, with 3.5 sacks and 14.5 TFL, 2 forced fumbles, 2 recovered fumbles, a pick and 5 pass break ups.
Clearly, he comes at a position of need, where BG already has one JUCO LB who is a January enrollee. In his tweet, Belton says he is enrolling in January as well, although the semester started 10 days ago.
Welcome to the Falcons, Hassan.
