I know @CoralSpringsCat and @Hungry Jack were discussing on a separate thread, but thought this was interesting enough to merit its own post.
Looks like a very good fit on paper — self-reported 4.2 GPA, local, projectable OT traits on tape (seems pretty thick in the lower half).
He’s scheduled for an OV to West Virginia this weekend. WVU offered in October so likely has a bit of a head start on us in relationship-building. However, the differences between NU and WVU are pretty stark (especially for a high-academic local guy). I’d expect Lucas to take an OV to NU the weekend of 12/16-12/17 so that he can sign when the early period opens on 12/20. Going just on conjecture, seems like a much better fit for NU than WVU.
Perhaps more interesting than the player is that an OL offer went out with Anderson’s future very much in question. Does that mean Anderson is sticking around? Or just that it makes sense to offer/recruit a local guy to backfill VanSickle’s spot? I don’t think anyone really knows (even inside the building).
