Football and MBB Verbals

 As the portal turns, a couple more players coming to BG.

The football player is Reis Stockdale, a WR from Ohio State.  Stockdale was a walk-on at OSU, but did make it to the field, playing 6 games and catching 1 pass.

Prior to that, he was an all-state WR at Little Miami High School in Morrow, OH.  There are gym rat vibes around this guy, which is the kind of guy who can thrive at BG.

The MBB player is Justin Thomas.  Justin has had an interesting career.   This will be his sixth school...Queens, Navarro, Milwaukee, UTSA and Florida State were the others.  That' s quite a journey.  Here's the thing...based on his FSU bio, he has two bachelor's degrees. That takes perseverance when you transfer every year.  

This guy has sleeper/glue guy on him, making like Humphrey played last year. He's 6'7" which is good added length for us on the wing.

First, let's look at Milwaukee, which was comparable competition.

Averaged 7.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 3.0 assists in 33 games played...shot .432 percent (82-of-190) from the field overall, .429 percent (24-of-56) from the 3-point line, and .684 percent (52-of-76) from the free throw line…a starter in 14 games.

I know you saw those 3FG stats.

With the Seminoles, he started 5 games last year and played in 32. He scored 4.8 PPG, had 2.3 RPG and 1.7 APG.  He made 33% from 3FG. That was done in 22 minutes per game.

Reis, Justin...welcome to the Falcons.
