Life Christian DB Marvin Reed bags offer from Jackson State
by Brandon Mitchell, recruit804“Life is Good.”
It’s not just a phrase that trails a hash tag.
It’s a phrase that embodies a culture of football that was spawned into existence just a few years ago.
It’s also a phrase that represents the fruits of labor manifested through time spent perfecting a craft minus Twitter clout and telescopic star gazing.
“Life is Good.”
And if you ask second-year Life Christian Academy head coach Charles Scott, life is more than good. The Eagles currently hold at least 14 prospects that have collegiate offers and they just welcomed former L.C. Bird running back Tre Mason into their talented stable of prospects at the end of March. Now that starting defensive back Joe Johnson, III has announced his commitment to North Carolina State University, it’s time to shift focus towards what else LCA has to offer.
Starting defensive back Marvin Reed (2020 DB 6-2 185) came over to Life Christian from Henrico prior to the start of the 2018 football season and developed a rapport with the Eagles right away. Reed also doubles down as a wide receiver, however; most of his recruiting success comes from how he contributes in the secondary for LCA. Reed took a visit out to Southern University last Saturday and made a great impression on Sherman Wilson and Josh Tate.
This led to Reed picking up his first offer before the end of the weekend from Southern. His second came on Tuesday morning from Charles Mitchell and Jackson State University.
“It felt good,” Reed told recruit804. “I Just have to be patient and everything will fall into place.”
Reed helped lead Life Christian to a 3-6 record last year with wins coming over Hampton Roads (VA), National Christian (MD), and Christchurch (VA). Through nine games last season, Reed was the Eagles fifth leading tackler picking up 33. He also led Life Christian in interceptions last year picking up five.
