Willie Fritz retweeted his commitment today, and I got it confirmed.
Spears is a 5-10, 175-pound RB who is in the Rivals and 247 Sports databases but does not have any stars to this point. He did not have any offers from big schools, but I'm sure Tulane's coaches had him in the camp at the Saints facility on Sunday and really like what they see from him.
Ponchatoula had no defense last year and went 2-8. The year before, the Green Wave (they share the nickname with Tulane) went 10-2 and reached the second round of the state playoffs. The coach is Hank Tierney, the long-time Shaw coach who won a state championship while he was there. Spears competed in the 100-meter dash for Ponchatoula at the Class 5A Region II track meet, finishing behind Dorian Camel.
