Appears to be a Gates recruit.

Man, Gates is making his presence felt like right now.

I forgot we were recruiting this guy

This one was a long shot at best based on local media and conversation with the locals.

Welp. Not sure if Fred will take a look. Has had an underwhelming freshman year.

Folks were thrilled to get him.  No word on what suspension was for but will ask a couple folks that may know.
