scpa0305 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Man waiting waiting to hear something but some of the targets are choosing other schools. really wish we are in on Johnny Whipple…my hunch is that he picks the goofs though. I’ve heard we’re falling into that Notre Dame conversation, we don’t let skill kids play and we play more of a D scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was tongue in cheek, the commit doesn't seem like someone who would be fending off suitors. But maybe Rico found a diamond in the rough, who knows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Looking over the commits today, two thoughts. Both Michigan State and Notre Dame got commits from kids who grew up together, it's possible they were packages. Also, both the Gopher and Badger commit are coast kids who moved to MN as a teen. With the rise in telecommuting that is easier to do now and much less travel-intensive than AAA. EDIT: one more observation, a fraction of as many total commits as last year on 8/1. Here's a list: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a list: It looks like only 3 of the players from Schlossman's list are off the board right now. Perhaps many of the prospects are going to avail themselves of their visits, which I think would be prudent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhockey30 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 So I thought that Berry was the main recruiter when Hak was the head coach. Is the problem that we don't have Berry hitting the road as hard as he used to? Or what is causing us to not secure big name blue chip recruits? I'm not saying that we need to be the next Michigan or the Boston University as I believe it takes a mix of high-end talent and grit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you basing this on the fact that there isn’t a recruit that committed on Aug 1st? Not many programs got a commitment today especially compared to last year. And there is still a ton of great recruits available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
