Youngstown State football coach Eric Wolford continues to raid area football fields for future Penguins.The latest is West Branch lineman Brandon Ferguson, and he is big, 6'8 260 pounds. He picks the Penguins over the likes of West Virginia, Michigan, and a host of MAC Schools.
The senior anchor of the Warriors line wasn't sure who was more excited after his decision, he or Coach Wolford. "He jumped right of of his chair and hugged me. It was great. It was a good environment," said Ferguson. "I felt one-hundred percent comfortable. I felt at home when I was there. It just felt right. It couldn't of felt any better."
West Branch head coach Bob Altenhof couldn't be more complimentary of his star senior. "His unusual gifts are his extremely long arms and extremely tall height," said Altenhof. "You won't play against too many people taller or with a longer wingspan than he does. That gives some problems to the opposing linemen."
Ferguson will pick up his third letter once he finishes his senior season.
