...has committed to a scholarship offer to play football for Vanderbilt.
Look for our story about it in today's issue.
This is fantastic news, I think. Very impressive.
It's a shame that he isn't still here, but if he was I seriously doubt that he'd get an offer from Vandy. Duke also offered him. That's some serious academic clout in addition to great football-playing ability.

Right now, for his high school, he's playing wingback. He projects as a receiver or d-back I think.

He never played that position when he was here. He was a defensive back and played some receiver in junior high. Also was the quarterback for the junior high varsity as an eighth grader.

No, and I didn't have a chance to find out before deadline on Tuesday. It's called St. James so I'm guessing that that means private...one would assume then that it isn't very big.
Just imagine had he stayed here and had Dylan Campbell stayed here. Just having those two (not even mentioning all of the others who have moved or dropped out) would have made a huge positive impact. No wonder that '04 junior high team was so good.
