The hopeful onslaught of talented recruits has started with the verbal from Jacobs—more to come!!!!
from Matt Bracken’s blog in the Sun:
Jacobs, a 5-foot-11, 175-pound wide receiver, committed to Maryland on Wednesday. Suitland coach Ed Shields said his former player will start classes in College Park this month.
“This is a hard-working, stand-up kid,” Shields said. “He’s definitely a good athlete and a better person that I think will do very well at Maryland. … He’s going to be exciting and I think the fans are going to like him.”
Jacobs had a big junior season in 2009, teaming with Maryland cornerback Jeremiah Johnson to propel the Rams to a 9-2 season and the Class 4A South semifinals. Early in his senior year, Jacobs, who was once committed to Marshall, tore a meniscus in his knee. After the injury, Shields said Jacobs’ impressive work ethic was on display.
“He worked so hard to come back and to still make himself the player that he was,” Shields said. “He was out there working out when he came back. His brother looked and said, ‘I don’t know how he worked out after that.’ His brother was already on the team, in 10th grade. I think he’s picked it up from Vern.”
