Is he going on scholarship or walking on? Either way congrats to the young man. Really good football player who has been very underrated for the last two years.

Honestly I don't know for sure , but I do know for a fact he did have scholarship offers on the table . I also know several schools requested information ,& video on him since the season ended .I also know for a fact Marshall came to Fairview high school to talk to him right before Christmas break , but that is all I can say for sure. The radio didn't specify one way or the other just said he verbally committed.

Great either way. I think a lot of people assume that you can just walk on wherever you want and that's just not the case. Still a recruiting process involved there. Would be nice to see him work his way into some playing time.

I'm hearing hes a preferred walk on , which is great that's a D1 school so he most likely had some smaller school offers .. Good luck to him hope I get to watch him play on Saturdays
