LOUISIANA La. — Matt Ulm only had four receptions during his senior prep season, but it was his all-around game at tight end that put the Fontainebleau High standout on many schools’ highly-desired list.
Ulm added his name to the University of Louisiana’s list late last week, giving Ragin’ Cajun coach Rickey Bustle a verbal commitment to be a part of the school’s 2005 recruiting class.
“I took an unofficial visit this summer, and I really liked the campus,” said the 6-foot-3, 245-pounder. “And it’s close to home.”
Ulm said that he planned to make an official visit in January to the UL campus, and does not plan to take any other visits after being recruited by Indiana and UL Monroe.
Ulm was one of the leaders of Fontainebleau’s unprecedented march in the Class 5A playoffs. The school had never before won a playoff game, but compiled an 8-2 regular-season record and an 11-3 overall mark, the best record in school history.
