We’ve compiled a list of several recruits who were visitors at Saturday’s Temple-UCF game.
The highest-ranked visitors were Imhotep Charer’s Johncarlo Valentin and Naseir Upshur. Valentin, who is ranked by Rivals as a 4-star recruit, is the No. 15 offensive guard in the 2016 class and the No. 7 overall player in the state of Pennsylvania. The 6-foot-5, 335-pound lineman has offers from more than 15 high-major programs, including Auburn, Michigan and UCLA. Upshur, the nation’s No. 4 tight end, is committed to Florida State.
Saturday’s group of visitors also included five players who have already verbally committed to Temple: Jahsen Wint from New York’s Erasmus Hall High School; cornerback Kimere Brown from New Jersey’s Penns Grove High School; Dan Archibong from Springfield High School; wide receiver Kenny Yeboah from Parkland High School and defensive back Kareem Gaulden from New Jersey’s Lincoln High School.
Dual-threat quarterback De’Vante Cross, the guy who throws the ball to Yeboah at Parkland, was also among Saturday’s visitors. He recently committed to Boston College.
Two other visitors - Palmyra High School wide receiver Kelvin Harmon and Camden Catholic safety Tyree Rodgers - have issued verbal commitments to South Carolina and Old Dominion, respectively.
A few other recruits of note:
Sayreville War Memorial High School athlete Lindwood Crump visited, as did Simon Gratz offensive tackle Raquan Thomas (class of 2016), who camped with Temple this past summer.
Matt Hennessy, a 6-4, 275-pound offensive tackle form New Jersey’s Don Bosco Prep who has a Temple offer, was in attendance. He’s a 2016 recruit.
Several class of 2017 players visited as well, including Exeter Township High School weakside defensive end Brett Moyer, who was a guest at Temple’s win over Tulane last week.
And Rancocas Valley High School’s Shaun Bradley, a grayshirt candidate that’s set to enroll in January, was also at the game.
