“There are a lot of rumors saying I’m going somewhere else,” Granite City QB, Freddy Edwards said. “But I’m staying at Granite because it’s my home. I’ve been here my whole life. I like the atmosphere, and I like the school spirit at Granite City. This is my home, so I’m planning on staying here the rest of my high-school career."
But he won't stay there forever because Notre Dame - as well as many other DI programs - is setting the early pace in the recruitment of Granite City High School sophomore quarterback Freddy Edwards.
Edwards took an unofficial visit to South Bend, Ind., on Saturday and watched the Fighting Irish defeat North Carolina State 35-14.
In the first two games, the 5-foot-11 Edwards passed for 301 yards and seven touchdowns and rushed for 431 yards and seven TDs.
Edwards’ season was cut short when he suffered a separated right shoulder and torn labrum in the Warriors’ third game of the season against Belleville East, as he was attempting a tackle while playing cornerback.
Edwards doesn’t expect to play defense next season. Quarterback is his favorite position, and that’s where he says Notre Dame envisions using him.
