Andrew. Canelas. OL. 6'8 301. 3* NC

Army Dartmouth E.Carolina Duke Army. UNC NC St VaTech Virginia. Liberty Tulane NC Central Yale. WVa

Welcome aboard Andrew.

[RichH]

He was offered on 8/18 which I missed.
A different level talent on the OL. Huge and mobile.

Coach Gilmore and staff are bringing in a lot of very good and even elite talent.to Lehigh.

[RichH]

Interesting to note that he was rated 3* on 247. Rivals and ESPN. Not at all common for FCS commits.
The normal college tour for many of our recruits is the Ivies. PL CAA. Academies and a scattering of FBS teams.

Andreew's was. PSU SCar Wake Texas in addition to his FBS offers.

looks like a man among boys on his vids

Yes, welcome to Lehigh Andrew

The beauty about bringing in OL like Canelas is that he automatically makes people around and behind him better.
We all saw what a difference an OL made a few years ago.

Would like to see him convert some of the waistline muffin to muscle and add upper body strength. He's young and still developing. Time in the weight room will do him wonders,. Perhaps propel him to national recognition.

Yup. Watched a bunch of his andcthe team's videos. He has solid techniques but dominates with his size.He will profit from S&C staff. Agree a huge upside in a few years.

[RichH]

He is on the Sports Illustrated All-America Watch List.
Dont know as we've ever had a commit on this list.

[TMH]

Nice honor. Keep in mind though that there are 56 football players on this list from North Carolina alone. Dom was a MaxPreps small school AA and an HM Parade AA
