Two more student-athletes have committed to Boise State today. 6-3, 255-pound guard Steven Baggett has committed to the Broncos according to several sources. The Broncos' immovable force of the future is from Arlington Martin High School in Arlington, Texas and is one of four student athletes from the team to give a verbal to a major college football team.
The other commit is a running back from Texas, long rumored to be coming to Boise. In fact, word that another running back is going to be in town next weekend and is close to committing may have encouraged him to commit. He is in Boise as I write this. Blue Through and Through has word that according to his Twitter account, Devan Demas, a 5-9, 165-pound super back from Cypress Creek High School in Houston, Texas has given his verbal commitment to Boise State head coach Chris Petersen.
I can say this much--getting this running back is a major coup for Boise State. Demas ran for 1,850 yards and 26 touchdowns as a junior; he's a friend of current Bronco D.J. Harper. Demas chose Boise State over offers from Utah, Indiana, Air Force, Rice, Wake Forest, Iowa State and UTEP and over interest from Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Houston, Arkansas and Baylor.
This makes four recruits in this class from Texas. The class has boomed to 7 this week with more rumored to be committing shortly.
Welcome to Boise, Devan and Steven!
