Get the QB from Willmar. If he doesn't play QB he can play safety.   

I see they crushed Hermantown, they will be tested in the semifinal.....if they win that one the exposure goes up bigtime.

I would scholarship the kid and get him locked down but we already have a highly touted  QB from Nebraska committed.

Just searching for some additional value from 5 DEs in a class. 

Did we lose one or does one (or two) move to TE or OLB? 

I have to believe (and hope) we get bigger than Tanner Polomberg and Jade Lawrence in the MVFC.

Elijah Beach listed as bigger than Morrison was when he signed, if he can carry the weight well, maybe the plan is for him at NG??  Either way, if they can play let's get them here, worry about position later.

I'm getting concerned over the lack of weight returning on our DL. Will need a couple OL to switch sides or bring in a couple JUCOs.

Losing both NG's to graduation is an issue. Greer plugs holes and Tank made plays with his quickness, and Cieslak at nearly 300 lbs has been making more plays from the end spot, too. Of the returning guys, Bennett won't be an issue, we know that. Engwall is up to about 270. I'm sure Seguin and Ott will come back heavier next year, too. Morrison, Johnson and Honerlaw will have to work hard in the offseason. But yeah - we don't really have your traditional fireplug NG body on the squad that I know of.

Honest question. When recruiting kickers do you find FB players that can kick, or go to soccer teams and find athletes that want to kick footballs?

 

I think you find them at kicking camps. There are a lot of specialty camps for K's and longsnappers these days.

If you don’t go for an actual athlete with a strong soccer background you’re asking for trouble. If they’re just a kicker and don’t excel in other sports I’d look elsewhere. Soccer players understand how to manipulate the ball that other athletes can’t which comes in handy for onsides, squibs, and pooch kicks as well as how to kick through the wind.

Looks solid.  Holds offers from us, Cornell, Georgetown, Colgate, and Air Force.

Do we have scholarship money and roster space available after all the D linemen?

Idk but I think we need two RBs in this class and another wr.

We also need a K and 1-2 NTs.  UNDFB360 guys had earlier speculated this class would be smaller, at about 20 players.  We're currently at 21.

The Dirksen kid from Willmar ran for over 130 yds and a TD and threw for 2 TDs in their 44-0 win vs Hermantown last week in the quarter finals.   Last night he ran for 90 yds and 3 TD's and threw for 4 TDs in their 62-20 against St. Paul Johnson.    I watched part of game replay on Star Tribune web site.

Hopefully he doesn’t do too good.

I like their chances against SMB in the Prep Bowl

Probably the same reason no one offered Thielen or Schobert.  I don't know that he hasn't been offered by other programs but he is also a very good BB player.  I would think at least the D2 programs have offered.
