Yulee, Florida sits one little town over in the very northeast corner of the state from the little town of Fernandina Beach where I live. The first time I visited Yulee High School was Friday, September 28th, 2012. I was there to see Hornets’ senior running back Derrick Henry. ESPN U was there as well, televising his duel with now-Gator running back Kelvin Taylor.
Earlier that day, Henry had made public his verbal commitment to Alabama.
