Florida High School Cornerback JoJo Scott Commits To Kansas State
David Boyce
JoJo Scott made it an outstanding Father’s Day for the Kansas State football head coach Chris Klieman and his coaching staff.
Scott, a three-star recruit from some media outlets, is 6-foot-2, 175-pound cornerback from Victory Christian Academy, Lakeland, Florida.
Some of the schools who offered Scott were Akron and Arkansas State.
Last season at Victory Christian, Scott played both ways, including wide receiver. He helped his school make the regional finals of Florida’s 1S playoffs. According to MaxPreps, Scott had 17 tackles and three interceptions on defense and caught 14 passes for 233 yards and three touchdowns on offense.

Scott is the sixth defensive player to verbally commit to K-State in the last 10 days.
On Scott’s X page, formerly Twitter, he made it absolutely clear he wants to be a Wildcat when he stated he is 1000% Committed!!!
