Fort Lauderdale's Jahmal Edrine Chooses FAU Over ACC and SEC Schools

In what has been the busiest June recruiting week in FAU football history, the Owls added their fifth commitment on Friday, when wide receiver Jahmal Edrine announced his decision to join what has been termed by some as The Willie Wagon.

Just 24 hours before Edrine had announced that his final consideration had come down to three schools: Vanderbilt, Wake Forest, and FAU.

He also had NC State, wake Forest, Western Kentucky, Charlotte, and FIU courting his services.

But when it all was said and done, Edrine was all-in on FAU.

Head coach Willie Taggart, recruiting coordinator/outside linebackers coach Raymond Woodie, wide receivers/co-offensive coordinator Drew Mehringer, and safeties coach Lance Guidry all played a significant role in landing the local prospect over ACC and SEC offers.
