Watson, Youboty on recruiting radar

Recruiting remains busy throughout the week. Marshall coaches are expected to follow up on cornerback Louis Watson’s official visit with an in-house visit on Wednesday. For those anxious for news about a defensive line prospect, get your Google on with John Youboty. The 6-4, 246-pound end is an impressive student-athlete with a strong tie to Marshall’s program. His older brother played under Thundering Herd head coach Mark Snyder when Snyder was an Ohio State assistant coach.
