We haven't really heard anything other than seeing followers on Twitter. I was told long ago that one PWO QB was likely all that we would have in this class, so I'm guessing we won't be involved with Blount unless it is at a different position. Not that I agree with not taking a scholly QB this class, as I think they should have a scholly QB every class, but that's what I'm hearing. Hope I'm wrong.....

I guess they're thinking that you can't teach size and that they can work with him to get him up to speed. On a side note re: Markert - I saw him at a Chipotle in Minnetonka a couple months ago and he is one huge dude. His vitals say he's huge, but being next to him I'd say it's not a stretch. Maybe 6'6" instead of 6'7", but still a massive guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is where he is best at as well he can clog up the middle with his size and free up LBs. I believe the Illinois PWO offer is for DL too. It sounded like the plan was for him to visit Illinois and South Dakota this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geaux_sioux Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I still say it's DL or bust for him. Either way I don't know if he will ever get his pad level low enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDBIZ Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 So in the last 2 classes we have, at typically the most important position on the team, a PWO and an athletic kid with unknown throwing ability. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Risky Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 A lot of people seem to be hard on the staff on their QB recruiting. I don't really know the situation but Bubba and his staff seem to know what their doing. Trust them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to WR, kid played FS and punted the ball pretty well for the Blue Jays. Plays basketball too. Seen him listed as tall as 6'5" but I think 6'4" is about right. Nice PWO pick up, I assume.

Westside Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Great to see the news on Cloyd. Although, I'll feel much better about it on Feb. 3rd. Think he'll be a great pass-catching TE in this offense. If he does sign, I'd say UND fared pretty well on the recruiting trail against SDSU (Helgren, Holm & Cloyd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ton of potential in this class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's built for WR. Would have to put on another 30-40 pounds for TE, but I think we are doing OK for TEs especially if Cloyd signs with us. Yes, Wanzek is a nice addition and should make for a good all around athlete with a nose for blocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he will end up being a tight end? I think we'll be pretty set at TE, with Cloyd and Pinke, but who knows .... right now I think he has pretty similar size to Luke Stanley, who had a nice year last year. What I want to know is, in addition to size, can he play physical and go up to get some jump balls. Same think that I hope to see more of from Stanley this year. Go up and make some of the tough catches. If you have that leaping ability and physicality, in addition to the extra muscle he will put on in college, there is always potential to be dangerous with that natural size.

Watching his defensive plays on Hudl, it looks like he likes to get in there and hit people, which leads me to believe that coaches think he'll fit in nicely as a blocking WR on the edges to clear lanes for Santiago and Co.

siouxfan512 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I really like that Bubba is going after some big receivers. Stanley 6' 4" Dulin 6' 4" Blackwell 6' 3" Toivenen 6' 3" Wanzek 6' 4" Add your tight ends into that mix too with Cloyd and Pinke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxfan512 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Is it Football season yet! Man, I hope we dominate Stony Brook and go into Bowling Green confident and ready for the upset. So much potential on this team, time to capitalize. This will be the season we have been waiting for since going D1. Time to hit the playoffs and make some noise. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxfan512 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Interesting that we saw no FBS dropdowns, I though they might go after 1 or 2. Not complaining, I like that the coaches are going out and getting their own guys, just thought they might try to bring in a seasoned play to help fill in the OL with our graduates and early losses.

Love the size, but also need to get some smaller burners in there - Dressler or Hardin types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you could definitely work Santiago into a few routes as well. But going forward, its always good to have a fast shifty guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
