These days, it’s not a surprise to see kids as young as 8th grade garner college interest.
One prospect that has gained interest from programs is 2026 (freshman) RB/DB Jordan Vann. The Fenwick Falcon (OH) is the son of former UC great RB Booker Vann
Vann has seen his recruitment pickup after a stellar start to the 2022 season. He has over 100 receiving yards and nearly 300 yards on the ground with 4 TDs. His average yards per carry is 6.7. Again, this is a freshman on a 5-1 football team that could compete for a state title.
Vann has no offers at this point, but said “I’m getting a little interest. Some colleges are starting to follow me and contact me on social media. UC, Ohio U, Eastern Michigan, Minnesota, Benedictine College. I Still got a lot of work to do.”
Sources within UC’s program, expect to extend a unofficial visit Vann’s way this season. At 6-foot, 180-pounds, Vann likes to be considered an athlete. He is also a prep baseball player for regional power Midland.
The good news for Cincinnati fans, is Vann’s familiarity with UC.
“I’m definitely a big Bearcat fan, when I was little my Dad would take me to the games and even to camp higher ground. It was always cool meeting his old teammates. UC is a first class program is definitely a dream school for me.”
Signs point to Vann panning out to a division 1, potential power 5 recruit, and the Bearcats are already is great position.
There’s a long ways to go, but really think there’s an elite prospect sitting in Cincinnati’s lap down the road.
