South Dade LB Jeremiah Jean-Baptiste talks UCF commitment

When Jeremiah Jean-Baptiste was on the UCF campus June 2, he was asked if he was on his official visit. He said he wasn’t but with resounding emphasis he also said, “But I’ll be back.”

Well, he didn’t need to return to be sold on the UCF program. The Homestead South Dade linebacker called head coach Josh Heupel on Wednesday to let him know he was ready to commit to the Knights. Soon after that, he also called his main recruiter and UCF cornerbacks coach Corey Bell.

“He was actually very excited and happy. He was the first person I called,” Jean-Baptiste said said of Heupel.
