This is the kind of kid we want at the program.. Seems to me like Drue 2.0 out of HS.. smart, down to earth, hell of an athlete, winner.

State's #4 all-time rusher and #2 all-time scorer

His team also led the nation in scoring this season

Didn't realize they lead the nation in scoring. I'd wager that they lead in margin of victory as well then.

858-39 on the season. So their average game was 55-2.

I'd jump on that wager too.

And after watching the game yesterday, I'd take them in a game vs Logansport.

Pioneer gets bumped to 2A next year and they are fresh out of Kisers.

I mean, I feel like there's an actual chance he plays RB. LB room is crowded, and he's a high school QB/S, so he'd be learning a new position either way.

And did it with WAY less carries plus doesn't get to count 60+ passing TD's. Safe to say, no one is responsible for more TD's ever in Indiana.

A year from today, Charlie Spegal will own every record known to man. He had 70 TD's this year for New Pal. He has 830 career points, 8800+ career rush yds and a year to pad the stats.

Is it completely inconceivable he stays QB?

Unless they have a Belldozer package down the line. He's not the guy you want passing the ball. He's basically Tommy Z coming out of HS.

Honestly was a little shocked nobody even discussed it with him during recruitment that I've heard.
His zone reads are flawless( and they are reading it). The kid almost always makes right read. His passing would need some work, but a couple years in right program and he could be Tebowish

Every player in the 2019 class has been visited since SC except Kiser.

They also visited Asa Turner.

And this is how rumors start.

I'll start to worry as soon as he removes the below from his twitter front page lol

Anything to this?

I'd take a Turner for Kiser swap. I feel like people say that they wouldn't now, but then once we watch the playoffs we'll immediately see 100 posts of "we just don't have the athletes".

Well, it's time to get some dudes proactively IMO.

Not one you'll see on whichever team hosts the trophy in January IMO.

Is Turner? I personally think so, but who knows. Point is, I think we'll find out we need to up our game in recruiting.

It's easy to say "never do this" when it's quiet. Those thoughts change quickly once you realize what you're up against. Just my opinion.

Well most of the recruits live a good distance from SB, so maybe they are visiting on their way back or after they get back?

Of all the guys who ND would regret Losing from this class...Kiser stands out as the biggest for me.

ND takes Turner who ends up another rotational guy and Kiser goes on to be a two time all American at Purdue.

IMO.......really athletic "Football Players" are as rare as hens teeth.

Kiser reminds me way too much of Drue to pass on him...

Drue was a "strech"/"Purdue level" recruit... Not going to chance missing out on Jack.

This is silly.
He was at the last home game of the season.
Heard he was wearing a Purdue hoodie at the convenient store last week though.

I remember you saying we should pull Tranquill's offer too.

Hot take - but no you don't.

I never said that. I did, however, for Drew White I believe.

Close

Personally, I think we give this kid too much attention.

His highlight tape doesn't really do anything (I thought his 7 on 7 film was good, though) for me and his offer list is below average. He's rightfully ranked a 3-star IMO. I'm not going to fuss over his recruitment, if we get him, cool. If not, I'd be over it in about 2 seconds. BK said he's not worried about the 2014 ILB team. Wake me up if Drue can ever make up his mind. If I were the staff, I'd be tempted to yank his offer because the ND offer >>>>> any of his offers and either he's really indecisive or loving the attention. That may sound harsh, but seriously, how much ****ing time do you need to compare Purdue to Notre Dame?
