twitterfeed: @Wfroumy

Hometown: Exeter N.H.

High School: Exeter

Stats: 6’6”, 290 lbs.

Commitment date: June 20, 2017

Position: Offensive tackle

Ratings: Three stars from ESPN and 247, but just two stars from Rivals.

Other Offers: UMass was the only other school to offer Froumy -- or at least that’s what the record shows.

Dino’s projected nickname: “Dafoe.”

Update- Someone caught the original error calling NH the Smallest state. Still should have gone with a Granite reference here

Highlights:

Player Breakdown: A tall and somewhat light lineman (under 300 lbs. but 6-6), he is the epitome of what Dino Babers looks for in a tackle; tall and athletic. He is large enough to create holes, but not too heavy to where he can’t keep up with the Orange’s tempo. It is a bit concerning that not too many other division 1 schools offered him, but BAbers has had success with these under-the-radar type players before. He might not be a starter his first year, but Froumy is one to watch for the future.
