When UL offered Gabe Fuselier an athletic scholarship during the summer just before his senior year, he made his decision to go there about as fast as he can run.
Since he was clocked at below 4.4 seconds in the 40-yard dash at the Cajuns’ junior camp, it gives you an idea of just how fast he said “yes” to the offer. He was equally as fast to sign with the team Wednesday on National Signing Day, when he was the first pledge to send his letter of intent to the school, a fact Cajuns coach Mark Hudspeth noted in a Twitter post that stated “# 1 is in!! Welcome to the Ragin’ Cajuns Family Gabe Fuselier wide receiver from Catholic New Iberia!!”
“I knew that’s where I wanted to be,” said Fuselier. “I really feel like I’m at home with the coaching staff and the other guys. Plus it’s in my backyard and I know that they are going to look out for what’s best for me and I’m going to do the best I can over there.”
