Dowuona is a 6’11 Center who was ranked as a high 3⭐️ and 55th best player at his position out of HS. Has battled injuries at NC Stage and Georgia Tech, but adds significant P5 size to JMUs roster.

JC Evans is the real deal, seemingly under recruited throughout high school. He threw for 1263 yards and rushed for 506 yards, and accounted for 21 TDs and 4 INTs his JR year. Has a larger frame than Mendoza and all the tools to develop. Btw he plays in the highest region in FL
