Defensive lineman Isaiah Howard from Loganville, Ga. has signed a National Letter of Intent with Baylor football and will join the team for the 2019 season.
“First off, Isaiah is an explosive athlete, just a big, powerful young man,” Baylor head coach Matt Rhule said. “He’s someone that Evan Cooper identified and recruited. He’s a guy that is game-ready strength wise and is already 285 pounds. We think he has an extremely high ceiling and are excited to see what he can do once he joins our program.”
The addition of Howard brings Baylor’s class to 20 signees in December. Howard is the 12th defensive player to sign with the Bears and seventh defensive lineman.
