Ian Haislip Video Added To recruit757 on Facebook
Since Ian Haislip was one of about forty high school juniors that attended Junior Day at UVA this past weekend, it seems appropriate to show off some of his highlights from 2009.
On the Facebook Fan Page for recruit757 you can see a good 1:18 video highlight reel from Tabb’s game against York last September. Both offenses were hot that game, but Haislip did get in a few good plays including a sack of York QB Ben Edwards. Haislip also had a highlight reel catch for a touchdown. It was a diving grab in the end zone that has to be seen to be appreciated.
Haislip is just now coming on the radar for most schools, but he’s received early interest from ACC schools including UVA, Virginia Tech and NC State.
More video will be posted on Facebook and the new recruit757.com will be launching soon. Surf on over to Facebook and become a fan of recruit757, check out the videos posted there and whet your appetite for the action to come. Thanks for checking out recruit757!
Haislip and Hughes To Attend UVA Junior Day
It’s the time of year for Junior days and this weekend is no exception. Coach Mike London and the Cavalier football program play host for another Junior Day this weekend and several locals are attending.
One of two confirmed local attendees is Tabb linebacker Ian Haislip (6-0 190). Haislip is coming on the radar for schools in-state and out-of-state. While Haislip has no scholarship offers as of yet, it’s still early. Don’t let the Bay Rivers District history of drawing few Division I-A offers draw you into thinking that the 2011 class will go the way of classes past. In the 2010 class, Smithfield’s Boden Fuller was the only Bay Rivers athlete to go DI-A when he committed to Army. In the 2011 class, Tabb may have two “big school” bound kids in Haislip and QB William “Rex” Harrison (6-2 185). Several other Bay Rivers District teams have recruits in the 2011 class that could draw interest from Division I-A schools as well.
Also confirmed for UVA’s Junior Day this weekend is Kempsville linebacker Travis Hughes (6-1 215). Hughes is already neck deep in his recruitment and the offers keep on coming. Hughes’ offer list has hit double digits. Having Southern Cal make an offer recently hasn’t hurt. Hughes has added offers from Tennessee and Texas Tech since the offer from USC came in, and it now seems far from a foregone conclusion that Travis will follow the path his brother took to Maryland. Hughes has half of the ACC to choose from, a Big 10 offer from Penn State, SEC offers, Big East offers and of course a USC offer to hang his hat on. Hughes claims that he will narrow his list before the school year, but it wouldn’t be surprising to see him take his time.
