Football: Stone Bridge 6-foot-7 Junior Rob Burns Gets an Offer from Duke

(Feb. 13, 2010) - Duke University has joined the University of Virginia in offering Stone Bridge High School junior defensive end Rob Burns. The 6-foot-7 standout is actually escaping the snow and taking a visit to Durham, N.C. this weekend to catch a Blue Devil basketball game and meet the football coaching staff.

Burns, who helped the Bulldogs make the AAA Division 5 state title game in December, picked up his offer from UVa two days before Christmas and then Duke offered on Feb. 3. More offers are sure to follow for the 230-pounder that can bench 315 pounds and run a 4.8 40.
