Football Update, including a portal commit

So a couple things.

First, in my list of players who were transferring, I failed to mention that Willie Jones has entered the portal. He is DB from Chicago who came to BG with a number of reported MAC offers.  He played in 1 game in 2 years and has decided to move on.

Best of luck to him in the future.

BG also has a verbal commit on the DL.

The young man's name is Chace Davis. He is a grad transfer with two years.

He is from Whittier, CA, which is in the general LA area.  In addition of having the world's largest cemetery, Whittier was home to President Richard Nixon.

He played one year at East Los Angeles CC, where he was all conference and recorded 25 tackles, five tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks and a forced fumble.

He went from there to UTSA, where he played 4 games and made 4 tackles.

They reported him at 6'4" and 280 pounds.  FWIW, he says on twitter he is trying to get lighter and has lost 25 pounds.

He was a 3-star recruit out of HS with offers from Akron, FAU and Arkansas State.

Welcome to the Falcons, Chace.
