Falcons Land Football Verbal

 BG has a new football verbal, and its one of the most recruited guys we have landed in the past few years.

He is DeShaun Lanier, a 3-star WR from Chippewa Valley, which is in the north Detroit Suburbs between Sterling Heights and Lake St. Clair.

He's 5'11 and 165 pounds, and is an all-state WR.  He had 24 offers, according to 247.  That includes Indiana, Louisville, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Penn State, Pitt and WVU...CMU, KSU, UMass, NIU, UT and WMU...App. State, East Carolina, Marshall, ODU and Troy...and Howard, EKU.

A highly sought-after young man.  He was first-team, D1 all-state, one of two underclassmen on the offensive team.  He is fast and athletic and a "nightmare" for defenses.

This is a significant recruiting win for the Falcons.  He projects to be an impact player in the MAC at a position that BG has not recruited well at.
