Forbes attends Newburgh Free Academy, and is a 2-star recruit according to 247sports. He also had offers from Army, Maine, New Hampshire and Lafayette prior to committing to Villanova.
With Kevin Monangai and Austin Medley graduating, plus Gary Underwood coverings from a serious knee injury, Andy Talley has clearly made it a priority to recruit running backs in 2015. He's already secured commitments from Jarrett McClenton and D'Andre Pollard.
Forbes is the 11th commitment in the Wildcats 2015 class. Check out his highlights via Hudl below.
