Two Additional '26 Verbals for BG....

Both were highly-recruited players.

First, we have S Julian Holt, who is 6'1" and 190 pounds, and played at Edward White HS in Jacksonville.  That's the same HS Jaison Patterson went to--in fact, he and Holt are cousins.

He is a 3-star recruit with offers from App. State, Arkansas State, CMU, Delaware, Georgia State, Louisville, Mercer, ODU, Tulane, Wake Forest and WKU. 

This story lists him as a physical presence and ball hawk in the backfield, something you can always use from your safety.

(Ed White was an astronaut, the first American to walk in space, and died in the Apollo 1 accident.  There are 8 schools named after him, in total.)

The other is Kore Thomas, 6'1" and 275-pound DL, from the First Baptist Academy in Dallas.  He is unranked, but had offers from Arizona State, Arkansas State, Houston, K-State, Nevada, New Mexico, North Texas, Toledo and Tulane.  No idea about the ranking, but it is a good sign when you are getting a player that other teams wanted.

They have won 2 straight state titles in the Texas Private/Parochial Division.  He is a two-time All-State player and was the District Defensive MVP last year. He was offered by BG under the previous regime.

As a Junior, he had 86 tackles, 24 for loss, and 9.5 sacks.

Julian and Kore, welcome to the Falcons.
