Recruiting: Four-star WR commits to Vanderbilt

Four-star wide receiver Carlos Burse has committed to Vanderbilt.

Burse said on Twitter this morning: “So it’s about that time!! I’d like to let everyone know that…. My commitment goes to the Vanderbilt Commodores! ‪#AnchorDown‬ ‪#VU‬“

Burse, who was offered by the likes of Florida, South Carolina, Mississippi State, Tennessee, and Oklahoma- and had interest from Alabama, plays his school in Alpharetta, GA.

The player is ranked as the 18th player in the state and 234th nationally – and is a super pick-up for James Franklin and the Commodores, who are starting to make waves on the commitment trail.

Keith Niebuhr, college football analyst at Rivals tweeted: “Quick thoughts on new #Vanderbilt 4-star WR commit Carlos Burse: Good feet. Strong route runner. Excellent hands. Big body.”

BOTTOM LINE: Vanderbilt gets stronger and stronger in its commitments as this goes on, and this could be a dangerous under-the-radar team in the SEC East this year and now – next year.
