MotSaG Chat with Jamel Dean

I recently had the chance to chat with Jamel Dean a 6’1″ 180 lbs CB from Cocoa, Florida. The young man who was offered by Ohio State back in the Spring came to Friday Night Lights and showed everyone why he was given an offer. He has not been ranked by any site yet but the class of 2015 athlete will surely be ranked sooner rather than later. He already has offers from OSU, Florida, Miami, and Miss St. He is competing on the summer camp circuit and building a name for himself. Here is what he had to tell me when we were able to chat after his trip ended to OSU.
