"Lets get the fireworks out," Virginia head coach Al Groh told one of the two verbal commitments his program received earlier today. It has been a great week for Virginia football 2010 class recruiting, with three rising senior prospects pledging to the Hoos. Today, Bayside (Virginia Beach, VA) linebacker Henry Coley and Deep Run (Glen Allen, VA) offensive lineman Conner Davis became the seventh and eighth commitments of UVa's 2010 class.
The story is the same every year: by the time I finish writing the Summer Reading column on the offensive line, my eyes are exhausted from watching games from the past year or two and my fingers are sore from typing. This year, I have no doubt the story will be repeated … and perhaps, your eyes will be tired, too, by the time you find the end of this column. So let's get right to the discussion.
Under previous head coach Dave Leitao, the University of Virginia had extended a scholarship offer to 6-5, 155-pound guard Brian Richardson. The new staff has yet to follow suit, but interest is there. Richardson, a standout rising senior out of Greenfield (Wilson, N.C.), met with the new staff the Sunday after the NBAPA Top 100 Camp to discuss his standing with UVa.
In viewing the NBAPA Top 100 Camp earlier this month, I had the opportunity to get a first-hand glimpse at some of the nation's elite prospects as Division I teams across the land try to form their rosters for years to come. I took down a ton of notes on players from point guard to center in an effort to familiarize myself and Sabre EDGE subscribers with some of the recruits' skills.
6-6, 230-pound outside linebacker/defensive end prospect Kareem Martin, an outstanding athlete who excels on the gridiron and the basketball court, has become one of the most highly recruited defensive prospects in the state of North Carolina's 2010 class. Roanoke Rapids head coach Russell Weinstein updated the latest on his star prospect, who totaled 121 tackles including five sacks in 2008.
