"It felt right, everything felt right," Licata told The Buffalo News on Monday. "I liked the coaching staff, it’s a really good place. It was the best fit for, especially because I’ll be able to play in front of my family and friends.’’ -- Joe Licata to the Buffalo News
Licata had offers from Akron and Syracuse (though the Syracuse offer was pulled when Licata would not immediately commit to the school.






Licata's Williamsville south offense runs many spread formations and in that offense and he piled up 2,462 yards and 36 touchdowns against just nine interceptions. Licata is the fourth Commitment for this years class and the second from Western New York.

Bull in Exile,

Is this it for QB's unless a big timer comes along ? With what we have enrolled, Licata and the talent coming in for the fall, we are DEEP!!!

I've dug around a bit on Jules Licata but I cant find any article that mentions both of them and I am hesitant to talk to a recruit with the NCAA on a blogging witch hunt lately.

Ill keep looking around..

W2R,

You may be right, UB is very deep and young at QB.

Assuming they all make the grade there will be seven QB's on the roster in 2011, though a couple of our guys definitely have the potential to end up at wideout or even tight end.

One is a minimum, and two is usually a good idea. QB's tend to be the more well rounded and athletic players you have so a good ball player can pan out anywhere. (Starks & Roosevelt were both HS QBs)..

Licata?
I watched his film and I'm not sure if he's shot putting or throwing the ball. He needs some real work before he plays at this level. I also think the conference he's playing in by the looks of it is relativly soft. I thik the kid will bring some people to watch a game or two. As a Q coach I am suprised he's being offered an I'm assuming its to bring attentio from thelocal area to the program.
Good luck

I'll be honest I have not seen too much of him but given the fact Syracuse, North Carolina, and Akron all offered him he has to have something that the OC's are seeing..
