National Signing Day, Syracuse Recruiting: Dontez Ford Signs His LOI, Gets Back to Calculus

via cdn0.sbnation.com

Last week when we last left Dontez Ford, he was conquering the world of calculus with his two Sto-Rox friends. Today, he signs his LOI and becomes an Orangeman.

Rivals says...two stars.

Scout says...three stars and a number 79 ranking among safeties.

ESPN says...no stars, a grade of 45.

Who's Crying?: Akron, Temple and Vanderbilt

Money Quote: "I like the location of the school. It's far enough for me to get away from the elements of Pittsburgh and McKees Rocks but still close enough to come back whenever I have to."

Which SU Coach Gets a Bonus?: Dan Conley and Scott Shafer seem to be the two who stand out here.

Fun Fact: This article has been posted a few times here, but read it again. This is just a great kid we're getting.

Twitter Handle: @D12Ford

I Can't Find Any Highlights...so why wouldn't I post this video again? Go go, calc kids!

Oh man.

I may or may not have watched this whole movie back in the day. I also cannot confirm or deny whether I just watched that whole video.

Clear eyes, full bologna sandwiches!

I Also Refuse To Confirm That I...

Actually know the words to the chorus of this song from watching the show years ago and anytime someone mentions the word calculus, I can’t confirm that this song plays in my head and I want to sing it loud for all to hear.

I just have a feeling....

This kid will end up being a really, really solid player. Welcome home, Dontez.
