High school football player commits, goes viral for entertaining name
Yes, Rowdy Beers is a real person and he is going to be playing college football very soon.
Beers, who is a tight end out of Highlands Ranch (Colo.) Valor Christian, announced his commitment to FlU on Monday night.
The decision went viral as Beers had been a fairly unknown recruit before making his decision. He is unranked in the 2023 On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. Beers also had offers from Northern Colorado and Missouri Western State.
