'15 LB FL Cecil Cherry (former Vol commit)

Voulteers??
Who the hell is this!? Lol. Hope that was autocorrect or something. Or just put Vol for life. Makes it easy lol

That is how Cecil spelled volunteers. Note that I mentioned in another post that I hope he has some good people around him to make sure his grades are in order so he can get to Tennessee and ball out. :p

Kid is going to be a great one for sure.
 
2011 article on Cherry, then a freshman at Orangeburg-Wilkinson HS (SC):

"When I see a guy with the ball, I think I just have to lay the hat on them," Cherry said. "It's just like they took something of yours. You have to make them pay."

Reeves paid mightily. Cherry locked in from across the field and started barreling toward the ball. At 6-0, 190, he clocked in at 4.8 in the 40 at a combine last year. He was going about that fast when he met Reeves, spinning the diminutive player around and sending the ball spiraling up into the night sky.

The Bruins recovered the fumble and went on to their first touchdown in what turned out to be a 21-14 win. But, Cherry, who has 35 tackles and a sack in three games, wasn't finished.

Just before the end of the first half, Colleton County tailback Diquan Crosby broke free for a 30-yard gain to move the Cougars into scoring position with little time remaining. Two plays later, Reeves passed to Crosby on a screen pass.

And, there was Cherry, dubbed "Florida" by his coaches and teammates, to dish out the punishment, a blow that drew a reaction of twisted faces from the Bruins' coaching staff. Crosby did not return to the game in the second half.

"Dubbed Florida"?

Yeah, no agenda with that nickname
 
Yes me too!! The young man is going to be a monster. Face to Face with Ray Lewis, you can see it. He ain't ever scared, can't wait to see him in Orange.

The truth is, Rod Wilks had a few extra years of eligibility left, but he forfeited it to avoid going one on one with Cecil Cherry. When Rod Wilks is scared, you know sh*t just got real.
 
I heard Cecil Cherry requested jersey #157 as he wanted to pay tribute to a fellow Frostproof alum and how many children the alum had fathered.

TIFWIW.
