Hambone Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Looks like he can play two years but has the ability to redshirt right? That's how I read it, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iramurphy Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 From what I have seen, it would be hard to compete with Reyes on the basketball court. Mollberg and Labat led Detroit Lakes to Minn. State BB tourney. Labat won opening tip by out jumping DeLaSalle 6'7" big man who I believe plays for Northwestern. Mollberg scored 20. Mollberg finished career as leading scorer in school history surpassing Minn Viking receiver Adam Theilen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Not one mention from anybody on here about Texas A&M's Kenny Hill transferring? Of course it sounds as if he's going to TCU and sit a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux24/7 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Didn't really know where to put this but it looks like Sam Fluegge is transferring to Colorado State. Not sure if he will be playing football there or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hambone Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 Did we have any recruits in this weekend? I didn't hear of any. I believe they are focusing on having recruiting weekends the next three and didn't do much for last weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Csonked Out Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 In order of importance, the following positions are what I think are the most critical that we still need to fill 1) CB - we didn't have much depth last year and lost Tillman - I don't believe we have a single CB recruit committed yet - While I like Carter, it is a lot to thrust him into a starting spot with no real backup plan 2) WR - this has been discussed enough 3) RB - not sure what we have in Simmons or Sharp and not much experience - Have a talented freshman in Olivera coming in, but is he built to handle 25+ carries/game 4) Offensive line - we need more depth badly - you can never have enough hogs - I would like us to continue and get more athletic on the line this off-season I am hoping to get at least 2 of each of these areas. Make it happen Bubba! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geaux_sioux Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Get Trey Anderson in here. Don't firget about Harris and Brown, they showed they can play a little bit last season. I'd like to see a transfer CB. Fill the gap to the younger guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make it happen Bubba! Just speculation on my part, but I'm thinking we might be done recruiting at the RB & O-Line positions. Have 4 HS lineman coming in (if Grady stays on the offensive side) & 2 Jucos also coming. With Oliviera & Santiago coming in as HS recruits & the UAB transfer Arrington we could possible by close to done at RB too. Although, I would like to see another FBS or Juco transfer here to spread some depth between the classes. CB & S definitely need some depth & multiple HS recruits this year. ILB needs some too, as all the HS recruits are projected at OLB. Also, anyone know if Norberg will be staying at RB or switching back to LB?

If the UAB kid and our freshman can carry the load I think Norberg could be a hybrid RB/FB. We might see one more back brought in with the question mark on Simmons's shoulder.

jdub27 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I think Carter and Harris could make a very nice combo at CB. Agree that depth is a concern though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I'm only assuming but Norberg is probably going back to LB. I think you're right with RB's but I bet they're still looking for another Juco OL. I'm thinking we do get one more WR. if we get Awirri Smith it looks like he could play any position, maybe CB. Trey Anderson would be a great get at QB, but if not him somebody else with equal talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gundy1124 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Will jaden lawrence be at RB, linebacker? OLB is his projected position. Coaches think he's going to be a good one although I think he'll redshirt.....just my guess on red shirting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can cover and not afraid to tackle. Cornerback Backups - Brown (Sr.) - Undersized but he can play, really quick and is full speed out of breaks. Should be a great leader for young corners. - Flowers (Soph) I think he redshirted and still has 3 years. Good size and athletic....but is he physical enough at this level? Has potential. - Edmunds (Jr.) Has been a special teamer, could be used as a depth player - Bollant (R Fresh) Redshirted last year, time to prove yourself. We have 3 guys that can play right now. If the coaches have enough confidence in our starters, then look for some freshmen corners to come in and redshirt this recruiting class. If we find a 'Tillman' type available we will grab him. Don't panic if we don't sign a JUCO or FBS drop down at corner. Projected Starters at Safety - Reyes (Soph) - Good player. Needs to work on the speed of the game and his angles. Other Safeties - James (Sr) - Not a top level safety but might start at beginning of the year with his experience. Provides for good depth. - Blackmon (Sr) - Has a nose for the ball or the ball has a nose for him. He will see some time for sure. Provides for good depth. - Aenell and Johnson (Jrs both are JUCO transfers) I think one of these guys will be the other starter when ready. Both have good size. - Montague (Soph) Kind of a wild card, played a little special teams last year, was listed on 2-deep at one point. I think a JUCO guy ends up starting next to Reyes, providing us with some size at safety, which is needed with the receivers in the Big Sky. James and Blackmon will provide depth and either could be starting 'Nickel', and in this league 5 DBs are needed on the field in certain situations. We should look to add a freshman safety, redshirt him, and have him ready to go as we lose 2 Seniors after next season. JUCO guys are the wild card at safety, but we did have more time this year to target guys that we wanted. Plus, I believe both safeties are on campus now and will play spring ball.

It will be interesting to see whether the last two games of 2014 were flukes, or whether they were a sign of things to come for Blackmon. He had a nice return of a field goal block, a fumble recovery and a pick after playing very little for most of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hambone Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 We have offers to DJ Peluso, Kryston Hammon, Taz Bateman who fit that category. And a couple HS in Romontay Hill, Awarri Smith and Tyree Range. Just a follow up on Hammon - he is going to go to Blinn JC. Best of luck to him.
