A Sea Of Red

Is this a mistake or is he coming as a preferred walk-on?

Excitement, relief part of signing

The other Cypress Bay students to sign national letters-of-intent included Lindsey Bragg (soccer, University of North Carolina at Asheville); Krista Clyde (softball, Santa Fe Community College); Iker Ibanez (soccer, Nova Southeastern); Aly Hassan (soccer, Nova Southeastern); Anthony Jackson (football, Pittsburgh); Danny Thompson (football, Georgetown); and Chase Harrington (football, Liberty University).

I googled that and saw that myself this morning. I have a friend on the coaching staff at Cypress Bay and called him. He told me that Coach Skalaski (or is it Skalasky?)was in their school in January and talked to Chase about a preferred walk on opportunity because Liberty had so few scholarships this year. He said he visited Liberty. He is a giant kid, 6'8" 280lbs. My friend said he has a ton of potentlal and he is turning down some other scholarship opportunities to walk on. Very religious family and the parents liked the attention Liberty showed.

That's what I was hoping to hear. I'm guessing we have several preferred walk-ons coming this year.

Thanks for checking with his coach.

Absolutely.

If that's true, wow. 6'8/280 lbs? Yikes. That's a big boy.

how impressive is it that a kid with that kind of potential would go that route at LU!

about as impressive as the fact it takes two of you to make one of him!
