2016 UMass Minutemen football recruiting: 3-star DB Cycoby Burch commits to Minutemen

The Massachusetts Minutemen made a huge splash on the recruiting front yesterday when they earned the verbal commitment of DB Cycoby Burch out of Oak Ridge High in Orlando. Burch, a 3-star safety, was at one point committed to Wisconsin earlier this year and chose the Minutemen over several other offers including West Virginia, Syracuse, North Carolina, and Indiana.

Burch was busy taking in congratulations from all over last night but was kind enough to take a moment to speak to Hustle Belt about his commitment. When we asked him what the biggest factor is his decision was, Burch didn't hesitate: "The coaches and the relationships I have with all of them," he told us.
