It sounded like it was just an offer that went out.

Sounds like the first offer went out for the class of 14 today. Kotelnicki tweeted a recruiting chest bump to Freund for getting a kid to call in and give the first offer.

Good find! Good for him to make a decision that most would think is absurd.

To clean up our offer list even more on Wiki, we can update the following: Tony Gumina - Wisconsin - Whitewater Mitch Wehrli - Colorado Mesa Tyler Rogers - Air Force Mike Langman - Dartmouth Dean Helt - Illinois State Tyler Lloyd - Iowa Western Akeem Roller - Iowa Western Direll Clark - Winona State (must have been a non-qualifier with offers from Purdue and Minnesota) Can't find anything on Kenneth Kidd, Frankie Felix, Grant Bartell or Reshon Watson.

Has anyone mentioned Eric Schmidt as a possible DC?

Speculation is Delaware State

I would be willing to donate $20, but I'm not so sure I could find 10 others. How much would they cost approximately?

I had heard that there were concerns about Jaried Combs too, who is also in the article with Opara. He signed with Illinois State, and he is listed on the Illinois State website as having signed. This whole thing is as strange as can be.

I believe they have some scholarship money available, as they appear to always keep some room for things that go on after NSD. And they didn't take a CB, so it doesn't appear as if they can say the position is full.

I had heard there were academic concerns, but nothing positive about that. The reason we're thinking he's not actually coming is because there hasn't been anything noted by the school itself - you would think that when the NLI came in they could have added him to the list or whatever. Again, I'm hoping he's coming because of his abilities, but would like the school to confirm it.

SFI has their doubts on the Opara signing - still nothing concrete.

Probably similar to how they brought in JD Allen a little late last year. Or the Brown's (Dwayne and Chris) the year before.

Also, regarding Stendler, I see NIU is bringing him in as a TE, along with two other TEs. But their site has him listed at 6-4, 250. I thought the last I heard was 6-2, 220. Would have fit the mold perfectly for what we're bringing in for DEs.

Yeah, I saw that tweet from him this morning. Because of how strange it seems that his name hasn't been added to our recruiting class, I'm going to temper my enthusiasm until there is more difinitve word from UND. Very excited if true.

Oskie is on the case.....I'm hoping that we know by tomorrow what's going on......

Hopefully this is legit - and it sounds like it may be. He had another tweet asking Kotelnicki to call him (which I thought it was a dead period, but once you receive the LOI that is probably null). This made this class that much better!! EDIT: Oskie / Fritz - get on it

No idea - maybe he's going to be a preferred walk on? That is strange that it's saying he signed with UND and it wasn't announced.

Anyone heard any word on preferred walkons?

Sounds like Dexter Bell ended up signing with Navy.

Yep - Wiki looks up to date.

And Nurse mentioned that we haven't seen all of his "bumps" yet, so it could be Bell and Wharton that we should see. Sounds like they are just waiting on one more. Out of the two, hopefully Bell from my perspective if I had to pick one just based on tape.

Missed that part. That's somewhat dissappointing, as I've been really looking forward to hearing about them.

Wondering if the Cali guys will be signing that were never confirmed. Really would like to see Dexter Bell at the OLB position.

Surprise 2 Matt Cox, DL out of Washington

Watching video I hope that these guys are in - would really add to the defense.
