Jahmal Edrine
WR
6-3, 196
Fort Lauderdale High School
Fort Lauderdale, FL

Hails form the oldest high school in Broward County - Fort Lauderdale. Chose the Owls over a plethora of interest including Power 5 nods from Wake Forest, NC State, Vanderbilt. Also had offers from C-USA league mates Charlotte and FIU. Final three included Wake Forest, Vanderbilt, and FAU.

As indicated by his film, and interest garnered, Edrine is a rangy receiver with plenty of upside, and a very long reach.

2021 FAU Football Commit List - FAU Owl's Nest

A recruit like Jahmal Edrine is not what you see at CUSA schools in general. We’re outgrowing CUSA. One we get deep into the top 25 it’ll be time to move to the AAC. Or maybe we make deals with some top AAC teams and App. State to make a new super conference 

I know very little about Edrine. He looks like K Woods. I hope he can produce like keleb.

Oh no, not a Flying L!

Just kidding from a NE Hurricane Jahmal - Welcome to the Owls!!!!!!

Seems like an awesome pick up

Dude strides just like dukes. Prime dukes was a serious threat!

Fingers crossed.

prime Dukes is the most underrated WR in FAU history. Guy was a straight up baller and probably a 2nd-3rd rd pick. It’s a shame he fell off his senior year. Between the coaching change from Pelini to Wright to Partridge and some personal stuff going on, he could not regain form and it probably cost him a spot on an NFL team.

Could only hope this is the case. We screwed out of a top 35 ranking in ‘17 and last year because of our conference. We are absolutely a top 25 team and one of the better G5 teams in the country. Once we start owning CUSA year in and year out, I’m hoping we get a call up. Big 12, we’ll be your Florida team!!!!!!!!!!

That’s exactly what I’ve been thinking. We have the best location in the country. The #1 location. We’re not in the middle of the state or on the Gulf of Mexico. What makes these AAC teams so special that they should get to P5 instead of us. I have a feeling that UCF has been rubbing P5 people the wrong way. I get the feeling the big shots running things can’t stand UCF and probably USF too although they obviously haven’t been as successful. I really feel like with the incredibly ridiculous fake NC stunt that UCF pulled that it didn’t win them any fans. 
And when you get back to location people talk about big markets like Houston. It’s a big market and probably a fun town to live and there’s a lot of super rich people there. But I think our location is better. This is all going to happen when we get deep into the top 25.
Our location is so much better than Orlando and Tampa. People can try to defend them all they want. They can talk about money and whatever garbage. UCF and USF have peaked. And they know it. I could care less about their academic garbage. We have the most upside by far. I bet every recruit would rather be here than Tampa or Orlando.
