2018: Football recruiting updates before National Signing Day on 2/7
We're officially a month away from National Signing Day on Wednesday, February 7th and I thought we needed a thread to post recruiting updates and roster news until then. I don't follow every program in CUSA that closely, so I was hoping others would post any updates for their respective programs. I've started with updates for Florida Atlantic.
Florida Atlantic's recruiting updates:
> Carson Lydon (Class of ’17), 3* OLB, Los Angeles Valley College (Van Nuys, CA) and played his freshman year at Virginia Tech will start classes on 1/8.
> Taylor Crabtree, P/K, East Mississippi C.C. (Scooba, MS) will join as a preferred walk-on and start classes on 1/8.
> Jaylen Joyner, 3* WDE, Jones (Orlando, FL) will visit on 1/12. He has 26 offers which include Virginia Tech, NC State, South Carolina, and Wake Forest. Florida Atlantic is currently listed as his favorite.
