Recruiting 2017--Javan Hines

Yesterday I Blogged about Claudin Cherelus, who was one of three players to de-commit from Minnesota after a coaching change.

Javan Hines, another member of that group, a 6-0 183 pound WR from Tyrone, GA had received interest from UMass prior to his verbal to Minnesota, but not an offer.

247Sports three-star player.

Hudl.com has video.

Partial quote from a 10/18/2016 article by Scout.com:

"Gophers are off to a good start with already one commitment from Georgia's Javan Hawes, who does have some position flexibility to potentially be a defensive back, but he's committed right now as a receiver and that's where I anticipate him starting his Gopher career."

No indication so far of any renewed interest between Hines and the Minutemen, but he's now available and he fits UMass needs on both sides of the ball.
