McGill welcomes two QuΓ©bec commits to their 2019 class.
Linebacker Thomas Bélanger from Collège André-Grasset and tight end Jean Bidaux Cégep de Lévis-Lauzon are set to add their skills to McGill.
Thomas BΓ©langer
Drawn in by the academics and staying for the football, Thomas BΓ©langer has found a place for himself at McGill. βI chose McGill because I can get a very good education in a school (that is) known worldwide,β he said. While he is interested in the arts, he is unsure as to what he will be majoring in.
As for football, βI had the chance to meet the coaches and I find (that) they have a great football knowledge and are very hard working, very good coaching staff,β he said.
Primarily a linebacker, this season the 6β1, 225lbs athlete played as a defensive end. He won two Bol dβOr championships in 2013 and 2015 with Les Cactus du CollΓ¨ge Notre-Dame (RSEQ) and one in 2018 with Les PhΓ©nix du CollΓ¨ge AndrΓ©-Grasset (RSEQ Division 1).
Itching to start the season, BΓ©langer, who is from MontrΓ©al, QuΓ©bec, has a message to share: βI am very excited to play and hungry to prove myself at the next level.β
Jean Bidaux
Jean Bidaux is currently in LΓ©vis, QuΓ©bec, where he has played with Les Faucons du CΓ©gep de LΓ©vis-Lauzon (RSEQ Division 1) since 2016. In 2014 he played with EDF Junior (FFFA) in La Courneuve, Paris. He stands at 6β3, 215lbs.
