Recruiting: Aidan Laughery update
Laughery is ready to get a head start on college, but more importantly to start the strengthening program.
“It was an easy decision if I could pull it off. I want to get to work as soon as possible. Learning and getting a full half year of learning before the season starting, I think, will be huge. Actually a lot of us are planning on doing it, I think. That’s big time for our class if we can get there and learn the system asap.
"The coaches mentioned to us on our visit about the possibility of coming early, but no one really pushed it. The coaches were excited when I told them that’s what I was doing,” Laughery said.
