The Red and Black kept their recent recruiting momentum rolling Thursday with a commitment from Lownes receiver Xavier Jenkins, Jr. If there's a knock on the Bulldogs' current receiving corps....it's a lack of production behind Terry Godwin. But if there are two criticisms, the other is a lack of size. The Classic City Canines don't have any scholarship wide receivers on campus over 6'2 (though 6'4 JUCO signee Javon Wims will arrive this summer).
The 6'5, 195 pound Jenkins should help remedy that and become an immediate asset in the red zone. Jenkins has only recently started attracting recruiting attention after a junior season that saw him contribute for perennial power Lowndes.
