Bethune-Cookman signs 19 to NLI for football

DAYTONA BEACH -- In Ronald Gaudin, Bethune-Cookman coach Alvin Wyatt saw his next great quarterback -- an athlete in the mold of Allen Suber or Pa'tell Troutman. Unfortunately, Gaudin didn't see it that way. Oh, he signed a letter-of-intent with B-CU on Wednesday. But the Miami Archbishop Curley product wants to play slotback in the Wildcats' triple-action offense. And who's Wyatt to quibble.

After signing the best group of skill players in his 11 years as head coach, Wyatt says Gaudin can play anywhere he wants."He's probably the best athlete we have on board," Wyatt said. "He has that burst of explosive speed. I wanted him to play quarterback, but he'll be just as dangerous at the slot."
