-- Asked around about QB commit Austin Burton and all I can tell you right now is that BC seems to be unaware of the source of the "rumor" that he could flip to UCLA. Seems like a rogue prediction or a shot in the dark at this point. I cannot say it's not a danger down the road. All I'm saying is there doesn't seem to be anything that's happened that BC's aware of that would have switched the tides in the opposite direction.
It's a situation that they're watching closely and Scot Loeffler is apparently still in regular contact with Burton and his father, who are very shrewd about the sports world and how recruiting works. The concern could simply be that UCLA wants a quarterback and they didn't land Jack Sears, who seemed to be their top priority.
-- BC is working on trying to get guys to come up before the start of the season. Right now I know that Belmont Hill wide receiver Jake Bobo will be visiting on Saturday. He's a Class of 2018 prospect with early offers from BC, Dartmouth, Elon, Rhode Island and Wake Forest. From what I've gathered he's a strong candidate to be a part of the Eagles' next recruiting class. He's 6-foot-4, 175 pounds, so he's got a huge but lean frame that will need to fill out, but they like what he's able to do early. Size at the receiver position is a big recruiting priority right now so he fits that need nicely.
