UNLV recruiting update: Jamaal Neal shines again

UNLV commit Jamaal Neal had another monster game for Los Angeles’ South Gate High School, rushing for 162 yards and four touchdowns and reeling in four receptions for 62 yards and a score Friday to help the Rams to a 48-41 win over South East.

The 6-foot-1-inch, 225-pound Neal, a two-star H-back/fullback, is one of seven recruits who have verbally committed to the Rebels’ 2017 recruiting class.

Johnny Balderas, a 6-1 cornerback from Liberty High School in Bakersfield, California, is the latest player to commit to UNLV. Balderas, who committed to the Rebels on Oct. 19, had an interception and broke up a pass in Friday’s 33-27 win over Bakersfield’s Garces Memorial.
