Tyler Lee’s Zach Hall Picks Up Offer From Missouri
After receiving his first two offers from Big 12 programs, the first SEC offer has arrived for Tyler Lee 2016 athlete Zach Hall. And it comes from Missouri, the Red Raiders standout tweeted Thursday morning.
Hall (5-11, 170) previously picked up offers from Baylor and Texas Tech during the spring.
He is the fifth East Texas recruit in the 2016 class with an offer from Missouri, joining Mineola offensive linemen and Texas A&M pledges Austin and RIley Anderson, Nacogdoches safety Brandon Jones, and Jasper tight end Cody Mitchell.
Hall is currently one of 15 uncommitted East Texas recruits with FBS offers in his class. Incoming seniors cannot officially sign with college programs until Feb. 3, 2016.
Missouri has adjusted well to life in the SEC after competing in the Big 12 Conference from its inception in 1996 until 2011. The Tigers, coached by Gary Pinkel, have claimed back-to-back East Division championships.
Hall, the Offensive Player of the Year on the preseason ETSN.fm East Texas Super Team, is set to begin this third year as the starting quarterback at Tyler Lee.
Last season, he helped snap a three-year postseason drought by engineering an offense that was among the area's most explosive. Hall finished 2014 with 2,053 passing yards with 18 touchdowns and four interceptions, and a team-best 1,502 rushing yards and 21 more touchdowns.
Lee finished 5-6 a season ago, but averaged more than 500 yards and 44 points per game.
Along with Hall, the Red Raiders bring back starting running back Tavon Wesley and last season's leading receiver in Isjuwan Barker.
Lee opens the season Aug. 28 at Keller Fossil Ridge.
