UNDColorado Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Hearing Ja' Won Arrington, RB from UAB will be here this weekend with fellow former teammate Chris Rabb, a DL. If they fit the mentality Bubba is going for they could be great additions. I is also nice to see that two guys from that team are visiting as it should help them with the transition if they both end up signing. Edit- This is a situation where the IPF certainly will help our chances since they played in a warmer climate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geaux_sioux Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 UAB has some good looking wr as well. It'd be nice to grab one. It will be interesting where their rb #7 jordan Howard ends up. He had a very good year as a true fr and has nice size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geaux_sioux Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Our top recruiter should be Alex Tillman. He's from the south and an FBS school and has really seemed to enjoy his time here. Throw Hinojosa in there as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a very good year as a true fr and has nice size. He will have a good list of schools to choose from . Wisconsin, Michigan St., Notre Dame and a list of SEC schools are interested and/or offering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambone Posted December 18, 2014 Author Share Posted December 18, 2014 one of the UAB safeties that was planning on visiting UND committed to Montana. Believe we still have an offer out to/interest in Bobby Baker as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be tremendous to have Baker play for UND, but it doesn't look like there's much of a chance....http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2014/12/long_list_of_suitors_after_uab.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geaux_sioux Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Two of our recruits were named to Canada's U18 football team. Zack Williams and Mason Bennett. Both of these guys may be corner stones down the road along with Olivera. I love our new focus on Canada, they have numerous diamonds in the rough up there.

nccfootball Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 One of the QB's UND has been looking at in Colorado Justin Roberts picked up first offer from Southwest Minnesota State. http://www.hudl.com/athlete/1508037/highlights/171099380 First Offer for Pomona QB Jeff StroudPublisher PrepColorado.com 2015 Pomona quarterback Justin Roberts picks up first offer. Earlier this week 2015 Pomona quarterback Justin Roberts gained his first offer coming from Southwest Minnesota State. Roberts had a great season helping his Pomona Panthers to a 9-3 record and a quarterfinal berth in playoffs. For the season Roberts hit on 66% of his passes for 1,659 yards and thirteen scores against only three interceptions. At 6-4 195 pounds Roberts has great size, a good arm and solid athleticism. Roberts’ game is made of strong feet in the pocket and he is especially adept throwing in multiple situations from multiple platforms. Roberts’ mechanics, pocket awareness and understanding of the game were key to his very high completion rate this season. Beyond the Southwest Minnesota offer Roberts is hearing from Washburn, CSU-Pueblo, North Dakota, Georgetown, San Diego and Drake. Wake Forest has also contacted, looking at Roberts as a preferred walk-on. In January Roberts will take visits to Washburn and CSU-Pueblo.

fightingsioux4life Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 coaches parking lot at memorial was full when i walked by around four tonight.... I am guessing they are all back home for Christmas next week, then probably back on the recruiting trail after Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambone Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Based on a tweet from his dad Austin Smith may have committed, but nothing confirmed yet. Never mind - another tweet from said dad says he signed so I can say confirmed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND1983 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Offeree Demaris Purifoy (RB from Milwaukee) committed to NDSU yesterday. Thanks. Our staff may need to get a little stronger with deadlines on their offers. Don't let stuff drag through dead periods, like others don't.

nd1sufan Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Thanks. Our staff may need to get a little stronger with deadlines on their offers. Don't let stuff drag through dead periods, like others don't. That may work for UND coaches when it's the kids only offer, but if they give a kid with multiple offers a deadline, my guess is the recruit tells them thanks but no thanks. I don't think UND has that kind of leverage at this point on the recruiting trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND1983 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Are UND coaches and fans so desperate for players that they want a kid allegedly involved in a point shaving scandal?

nd1sufan Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 He plays defense. If he can shave points off the scoreboard I want him. What am I thinking. You can't allow someone to score by missing a tackle or assignment can you? Maybe with his buddy Jameis in the NFL next year, Rabb will have 16 weeks to win enough money for his tuition and UND won't have to use a scholarship for him.
