New OL

[Class of 61]

Rivals and Scout are reporting that Austin Labus, 6' 6", 270 OL from Portage, Mich. has verballed to BG... This makes at least TWELVE known verbals so far, according to my counts. Have we ever had this many verbals this early in the year? I know a lot of kids can verbal now, hoping that some "big time" offer will float their way, but these seem to be listed as FIRM Verbals, at least for now.

Class of 61, you're right. This might be unprecedented. We have the right formula for it: great facilities, a winning program with momentum, coaching stability and an aggressive, organized staff that knows what the hell they're doing.
