Football Lands Two Verbals

You can tell when a commit is coming because Sammy Lawanson does a BOOM tweet.  He can't mention the name but usually a name follows on Twitter a while later.  Using that foolproof method, there may still be a verbal hanging out there, but here is what we have seen.

With great excitement and pride, I am so extremely happy to announce that I have committed to BGSU next year. #AyZiggy #TalonsUp #BGbound

— Winn Sharp (@WinnSharp) June 29, 2023

The first is Winn Sharp.  He's a local, from Whitehouse and playing for Anthony Wayne, a consistently successful program.  BG has Bryce Boyer from that program as well.  He's a WR.  He had a PWO offer from UC, along with offers from Navy, Indiana State, Bucknell, Colgate, Valpo, SEMO.

He's 6'4" and played both ways for the Generals but projects to a WR at BG.  

Here is what Prep Redzone reported about Winn.

Sharp might be the best under the radar 2024 I saw this offseason seen this summer who’s still on the board. I had the opportunity to see Sharp perform at the University of Cincinnati football camp. His testing numbers were really, really good as he ran a 4.49 40, and broad jumped 10’6. The speed and explosiveness translated to his routes on and air and the 1v1’s. Reason being is he’s a smooth route runner who also knows how to use route running technique to set up his defenders to create plus separation. When the ball is in the air, Sharp has excellent hands and is a natural pass catcher. Winn’s strong offseason has resulted in an offer from Bowling Green and a PWO offer from Cincinnati. Today Winn committed to Bowling Green!

Sharp is also a strong track athlete and sprinter.

What a blessing to be able to do what I’m doing today!!! Wouldn’t be here without the man above! I’m blessed to be committing to BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY!!!! @Coach_Jackson @CoachLoefflerBG @CoachSB_4theG @coach_them_up1 @CoachStokowski @TrellJones203 @Coach_CA912 pic.twitter.com/1tNDxaE5BY

The other is Dkyah Banks from Georgia. He's 6'6" (according to him) or 6'4" (according to the school) and plays DB--I assume safety.  He is an OLB in HS. He made a couple of visits but I do not see where he had any other offers.  Beyond that, there is not a lot out there on him.

Welcome to the Falcons, Winn and Dkyah.
