What will be the biggest factor for Jaheim when he decides which school to sign with on the traditional National Signing Day on Feb. “But I am kind of cutting it short, cutting it close.” “I would say I don’t have top schools right now,” he said.
Jaheim doesn’t claim any favorites in his recruitment at this time but is in the process of narrowing things down. “If you ask me, I think I’ve got a really fast-twitch, I get off the ball really well, and I’m able to pass rush really well, get to the quarterback,” he said, describing himself as a D-end.Īlong with Clemson, Jaheim has offers from Georgia Tech, Syracuse, Missouri, Coastal Carolina, East Carolina, Liberty, Middle Tennessee, Western Kentucky, Kent State and Central Michigan. He also recorded three sacks in the North-South All-Star Game and was named the Defensive MVP for his performance. “They text me a lot,” Jaheim said, “and their message for me, if I end up signing there, they want me to end up coming in, getting really big, and coming to play the next year, being able to play.”Ī 6-foot-4, 215-pound senior, Jaheim was an all-state selection and region co-defensive MVP this past season, when he tallied 75 tackles, 25 for loss, 11 sacks, two blocked kicks and two touchdowns to help Daniel win the state title for a second straight year.
