Home sweet home
Remember Derrick Griffin? The 6-foot-6, 228-pound prospect dual-sport star with loads of potential on the gridiron? Last February, the ESPN 300 tight end/receiver from Rosenberg (Texas) Terry signed with Miami but didn't qualify. After a brief stint at a prep school, Griffin is set to enroll at Blinn College in Brenham, Texas, according to his uncle, Scooter McGowan. Blinn is a program that has sent numerous players to FBS schools over the years, most notably Cam Newton. This is good news for Griffin and if he takes care of business off the field, it's good news for whoever lands him once he wraps up at Blinn. McGowan said he expects Griffin to spend the next three semesters at Blinn. The school that originally gained his commitment in the recruiting process, Texas A&M, is a school that Griffin still likes and will be high on when the time comes, if the Aggies decide down the road that they're open to recruiting him again.
