You mean he's not going to Florida. (Ducking from the rocks thrown by Ilko).

 

Good luck Zee, we can't wait to see you lined up with the two other youngins, Brad Harris and Josh Gontarek.

Lacrosse first!

Looks like Devin Williams, OL from Massillon, OH committed to us in September. Massillon is a football factory, with huge crowds. His level of competition is top, top, top. He's a bit undersized, but if they can toss 30 lbs on him...he could be a good one.

Looks pretty athletic, dare I say a bit Moss-esque as a WR. Seems a bit under recruited, likely because his team was pretty bad. He comes from T.C. Williams...yes, THAT T.C. William ("Remember the Titans") Some insane highlights regarding his vertical. Seems a bit bigger than the 6'1 they list him at in the services. A couple do have him at 6'3 185, with a 4.5 40yd time. That's pretty impressive, though not FBS speed.

 

He's also listed as a FS, though I doubt he will be playing on the defensive side of the ball.

The Troy Record Blog posted four commits yesterday, some of which we already knew about:

http://sportsontherecord.blogspot.com/2014/12/ualbany-football-recruit-updates-great.html

 

Looks like we offered:

 

RJ Edwards ATHL/OLB, NJ 6'1 225lb

 

http://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/index.ssf/2014/03/njcom_top_50_football_recruit_profiles_no_41_rj_edwards.html

 

http://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/index.ssf/2014/05/football_recruiting_njcom_top_50_recruit_updates_may_9.html

 

No word that I can find on Eric McAllister C, 6'1 275, Pittsburgh. We've got heavy competition: UNH, JMU, Montana, Charlestton Southern, Wagner, and Wofford.

No new word on John Petrishen, DB 6'3 190, Pittsburgh: This guy has offers from all over the place

 

No new word on Miles Brown DL 6' 260, Washington D.C. Wofford has offered as well. Sounds like he wants to play FBS.

Looks like Chuck Davis, DB, 5'10 170lb, VA is leaning FBS:

Looks like Cortrelle Simpson, WR, 5'10 175lb, MD has a verbal to Temple:

Also received a commitment from Neven Sussman as per his twitter account.

 

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/recruiting-insider/wp/2014/10/23/sherwood-qb-neven-sussman-gets-first-offers/

 

Says he was coming for a visit...... did he verbal yet?

If so, add another QB in the competition.

[Dane96]

Looks like Bryan Glover has verballed to Eastern Michigan. He's undersized for FBS at 6'2 205 (LB) and Eastern Michigan is FBS in name only. Frankly, Albany would give them a game...right now.

 

He would have torn it up in FCS. Maybe he changes his mind...

 

Looks like we've offered Altoona's Eli Mencer, a 6'2 205lb RB / FS, He runs a sub 4.48...and is a North-South runner. But he also hits a ton as a safety. Interested to see what position he's being offered to play.

[Dane4ever]

"Post graduate"? Is he a HS senior, or a graduating college senior with 1 year of eligibility left?
