Mingo from Ohio

Jeremy Mingo

6"0, 175-pound Jeremey Mingo, who doubles as a wide receiver and a cornerback, has chosen to come to Columbia this fall.

Mingo goes to Firestone High School in the Akron area, (so yeah, it's named after THE Firestone), and was an All-District All Star this past season.

Based on his size, I get the feeling he'll play at corner in college.

Mingo brings our number of known commits to 10, and that means I can start the unofficial "Roar Lions Roar" list:


1. Joey Andrada WR 6-3 190 lbs. Piedmont HS (Piedmont, CA)

2. Hunter Coleman TE/OL 6-4 230 lbs. Loyola (Prep Shreveport, LA)

3. Lou DiNovo WR 6-0 185 lbs. LaSalle Institute (Albany, NY)

4. Brian East LB 6-3 205 lbs. Carmel HS (Carmel, IN)

5. Tyler Feely K/P 6-0 155 lbs. Jesuit HS (Tampa, FL)

6. Brad Losee DE/TE 6-4 235 lbs. Eastview HS (Apple Valley, MN)

7. Mark McClain WR/S 6-2 195 lbs. Upper Arlington (Upper Arlington, OH)

8. Nick Melka DE 6-2 230 lbs. Benet Academy (Lisle, IL)

9. Jeremy Mingo WR/CB 6-0, 180 lbs. Firestone HS (Akron, OH)

10. Chris Rapka QB 6-3 200 lbs. Cardinal Gibbons HS (Ft. Lauderdale, FL)
