On campus today.

Umm, I hadn't seen his Jr film. Shame on me. This is an uber athletic dude with serious twitch for 6-5/270. Even if he's 6-4 in cleats, this is pretty impressive stuff. This guy is Jake Taylor quick off the snap.

He's gotten offers from a ton of P5 programs this year. He's heading to OSU next. No idea if ND will be interested (on either side of the ball cuz the DL work is impressive too) but I will be watching him wherever he goes.

OK this cycle has gotten... interesting?

What's the date on the OV?

He also cancelled his OV with Vandy this weekend and will visit Michigan instead.

No date in that article, just said next week.

Gotcha. So he's gonna go to MI this weekend, ND during the week and Iowa next weekend.

Maybe an offer gets ND next weekend?

I wish he didn't get his Twitter account suspended

Also of note, after his ND visit, Wiltfong and the Mothership bumped him up 2 pts to an 89. That makes him the #36 OT now, up from #49.

This has Zen Michalski 2.0 written all over it.

You say he's Jake Taylor quick off the snap, so is he a flex RT/G kinda guy? Or could he pull off the Z Mart LT special?

He looks like a tackle to me but I thought Alex Bars was going to replace McG when he left so what do I know?

BTW, I don't think Jake Taylor ever plays a snap of OG/C at OU or Bama.

 

[BobbyMac]

Wanna know more about Ashton Craig? Here's his QB's 9:00 highlight. This is how I discovered Kevin Pyne was not who we were told he was.

Craig is #54.

BTW, If Garret Yoon was 6-2, he'd might need an offer. Looks like a great PWO option. His last tweet was from the Navy camp. That's exactly what he looks like in his film.

This might be the biggest mystery in ND recruiting. I'm not even sure where he is. 247 says he's on an official at ND, Rivals has him on an OV to MI and he got his Twitter account suspended like a lot of prospects prolly cuz of copyright infringements due to music.

One thing I know is... Quinn owns guys who know how to work a baitcaster.

Gotta train your thumb. It's not that hard. People give up too easily and just stick with spinning reels like a child.

And never trust the magnet. That leads to backlash city too.

Very interesting how the weekend shakes out

 

[lcaps20]

You have to think this is because of them likely running 2nd for Wagner, Taylor, and Brunner…right?

[BobbyMac]

So he got offered as an OC per 247 or Rivals... didn't ask which one.

Had we made it clear to any other target they were 100% a Center? Hinzman?

Originally it was Tanona. Then I heard Hinzman. Of course, last class it was Coogan...

Then there's talk about Patterson back to OC.

 

[Dale]

If we are gonna concede somewhere I’d say Hinzman always seemed least likely of the WI guys

 

[BobbyMac]

Who's his favorite O Lineman? (Duh)

Good interview, much like Vernon.

 

[Irish#1]

Who doesn't love Q? lol

 

[Trait Expectations]

Follow up question should've been, "why do you like Quenton Nelson?"

and the answer:

 

[Cackalacky2.0]

Saw a video of Q handling his assignment then stops a separate DL after he beat the LT and ultimately saved Rivers life in one play. HoFer

 

[Cackalacky2.0]

Driskell seems to think this is a "interesting" offer. Did somthing happen behind the curtains to one of our other targets?

Being a Colts fan, I've found myself watching Q on almost every play. His head is on a swivel looking to where he can help out. He still runs down the field to help the RB get up.

probably just the realization that we're not getting any of the recent visitors and we have 2 more spots to fill and only one higher ranked guy (Schrauth) we are leading on.

is there still high confidence we lead here?

 

[Trait Expectations]

is there still high confidence we lead here?

No info here but I'm going to say there is waning confidence. We should've filled out the OL class by now or at least have a stronger idea of our position. Schrauth has been expected fo the past 2 months and it hasn't happened.

Methinks the OL class is the biggest question mark
