Popular Post UND Fan Posted December 11, 2019 Popular Post Posted December 11, 2019 Unfortunately, someone has erased all prospect listings and history for Wiki 2021 FB recruiting. I believe I had about 60 prospects listed for next year. I have no way of resurrecting the list. That said, I have done this for the last 10+ years. It is a lot of work and takes a lot of time (about 260 prospects were listed for 2020). I will continue doing this IF there is a strong feeling that it provides value to UND FB fans. Let me know your thoughts but please don't answer positively unless you really go to the site often. 1 8 Quote

You’re one of the unsung heros. You do great work and the lists are fun to look over, especially in retrospect. 2 Quote
andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I like it for reference and appreciate the efforts. Thanks! Quote
UNDBIZ Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I check it out probably a 1-2 dozen times per year. That stinks somebody deleted the info! Are you able to see who? Quote

Sioux27 Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I like looking at it a few years after they play. Quote
SkoHawks Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I show about 20-25 prospects listed on 2021 wiki? Is that what you've pieced back together so far? I'll copy it would be helpful. I enjoy looking at it as well and definitely appreciate the efforts. Quote
nodak651 Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I look at it often as well. Was hoping to find it on way back machine, but no such luck. Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Very good reference. Thanks for your efforts. Quote
UNDBIZ Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I will say, I'm far more interested in the offers, commits, and offers committed elsewhere lists than I am in the prospects list. But maybe others who pay more attention to HS ball like that list so they know who to look for. Quote
Mama Sue Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Well I like what you post because it seems professional and non-biased. I am not familiar with the finer points but I like positions.... thanks for what you do. Quote
Hawkster Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 I always look at it as the commits start rolling in. Sucks that someone had to be an idiot. I always thought it was possible to undue any alterations on Wiki. Apparently you can't. Quote
UND Fan Posted December 13, 2019 Author Posted December 13, 2019 Mystery solved - I was able to find one version of the '21 recruiting page in the system. I don't think it is the most recent but at least I found one version. I did learn who the "culprit" was who erased everything - surprisingly, it was one of our regulars. I would guess it happened accidentally but it is disappointing that he/she didn't step up and contact me about it! The response after I asked for feedback was not great - I will decide soon whether to continue it. Quote

I have all sorts of stuff I'm following on twitter, but don't have a list of everyone I'm tracking and whether they have offers and whatnot. Understand if you don't want to, but I really enjoy it. I probably peak at the current year once a week or so, and I really enjoy looking back at the historical ones. Quote

I appreciate the kinds words from many of you and will continue the Wiki recruiting pages for FB, M & W BB and VB. Hambone - I know you and others follow recruiting very closely. As you have done, please continue to post on the applicable recruiting thread or PM me whenever you have any info that isn't currently on Wiki. I think it is best that we continue to have only one person actually post on Wiki as bad things can happen if multiple people are posting - especially if they happen to be doing so at the same time. 6 Quote
