Kragthorpe snags two commitments

Clermont East Ridge (Fla.) running back Jeremy Wright became the 22nd member of Steve Kragthorpe's 2009 recruiting class when he verbally committed to U of L on Tuesday.

The 5-foot-10, 185-pound Wright ran for a state-high 2,707 yards and scored 28 touchdowns in his senior season. In a game against Wekiva High School, he gained 492 yards — the second-best rushing performance in Florida high school football history.

He runs a 4.5 40-yard dash and is rated as the 99th best back in the country by Scout.com. Wright chose Louisville over Iowa State, Troy, Florida International and Central Florida.

U of L also got a commitment from Dunbar (Baltimore) High linebacker Horace Miller, who had previously been committed to UNLV.

Miller, a 6-foot-1, 210-pound All-State performer, recorded 133 tackles and 29 sacks while leading Dunbar to a state title in his senior season.

Welcome aboard, fellas...

…..you’ll find that Louisville is a nice city to live in…..ice storms in the winter and rainless hurricanes in the fall, and please enjoy the country’s most brittle power lines and oldest trees.
