After rumors surfaced on Twitter of his commitment last night, Fairburn, Ga., athlete Rashard Fant has made it official. He is now a member of IU’s 2013 football recruiting class.
Fant chose the Hoosiers after also considering scholarship offers from schools including Florida State, Utah, Kentucky and Washington State.
A four-star recruit from Our Lady of Mercy Catholic High School, Fant projects to play cornerback and possibly wide receiver during his collegiate career.
According Rivals.com, Fant is the No. 17 athlete in the entire country while ESPN lists him as the No. 148 overall prospect in the nation.
In a tweet Tuesday evening, fellow IU four-star commit David Kenney prematurely announced that Fant had committed to IU. Fant later tweeted that he had not committed yet.
With his announcement today, Fant is now the 12th member of IU’s 2013 recruiting class and its third four-star commitment of the class, the most in school history.
