You can’t miss him.

Towering at 6-foot-5, senior Nick Follmer made college recruiting visits to South Dakota State, Memphis, Mizzou and Illinois State, but one school stood out to him the most.

On March 29, Follmer made a verbal commitment to Central Michigan University located in Mount Pleasant. His role on the Chippewas will be as an offensive tackle.

The main two reasons Follmer chose this school was that it had the better coach and had the nicest campus of the schools he visited.

¨Everything I needed was within a 15 minute walk on campus¨ Follmer said.

Follmer is the very first football player at Liberty High School to get a Division I scholarship. Offensive line coach Barnes believes that Follmer can play at the next level.

¨He has quick feet, he is very strong, also knows how to use hands and feet very well,¨ Barnes said.
