BG has its newest football verbal...Matt Kordas of Lincoln-Way East in Frankfort, IL.  Frankfort is in NE IL and is south of the lake.  He's 6'0" and 180 pounds and is a Safety.  247 gives him 2-stars, and he has FBS offers from Army, EMU, BG and Kent, and then 12 FCS offers, including perennial power North Dakota State.

He's done a lot of research for me...see above...his team won a state title in the largest division in Illinois and he's a clearly productive player who is recognized in his area. (He was first-team all-area and all-conference).

You gotta like 6 picks...that seems like a lot in a HS season.

His father Greg played at Arizona State and his uncle played at Notre Dame.    Also, this story details that he was making big plays throughout their playoff run, including in the title game, which was a shutout.

Last note:  BG was the first to offer and that made an impression.

Welcome to the Falcons, Matt.
