    There was a time when all the athletes received grey shirts. Several of them. We also received grey shorts. The school even laundered them for us.

    Grey-shirting: A player that commits to a team and then pays his own way through school for a semester to preserve his eligibility

    It is very interesting work these coaches have in front of them. As I read and study I notice allot of great talent out there who have not had any offers, at any level. Seems once the initial rush is over they will wait it out and watch the first few games to decide. These kids may go D1 or d2 etc. it seems to me there is a bit of a game chess happening.

    According to Kolpack, NDSU got their first verbal and he's from SD: Jarrod Tuszka, a 6-5 WR/TE/DE/LB, from Warner, SD.

    Anyone know if SDSU offered this kid?

    Interesting that we have a Brookings connection, lets hope the family finds trips to Brookings shorter than those to Normal ILL. Seems we are trying our best to bring in the best talent wise and those who are looking for a good education. Some of these guys have choices and we can only hope they choose SDSU.

    Yes, he is younger brother. Moses is playing TE now for the Gophers. Mikas gave up his Sophomore year of varsity play due to transfer rules...

    I'm assuming this is the younger brother of Moses and Marcus. They both starred at Bloomington Jefferson, but the two schools are only 7 miles apart.

    Moses is a highly touted junior QB for the Gophers. However, he is currently backing up Marquis Gray. Marcus will be a freshman basketball player for St. Thomas University in the Twin Cities. Their dad played football for Washington State.

    From the video that I've seen, he looks like a physical linebacker even though he is not hugel. He does appear to make alot of tackles high around the numbers and shoulders, but does have good leg drive all the way through the tackle.

    I like this kid!!!

    Ryan Wolpin appears to be an excellent RB prospect and it is nice that we are the first to offer. At 5'9" and roughly 200 lbs., he is a compact yet stout runner. While he is shifty in his running style, he does it in a north/south manner. He'll make his move to freeze a defender, but keeps his N/S direction going so that he is always getting positive yards. With 4.4 speed, he has the ability to go the distance as evidenced by his youtube video. He also appears to have the strength to run through some tackles. Moreover, the way he continues to churn his legs, makes it difficult to finish tackles on him.

    I also like his hands. He looks like he would be highly effective on screen plays and swing passes. On screens he can be difficult for defenses to find.

    When I looked at the footage, I figured it was for a modest sized high school and not at a level of the top California schools. However, ESPNHS ranks them as the 2nd best school in California and among the top 50 schools in the nation. To nab him would be awesome! Then it would be nice to get one of his massive offensive linemen to join him in Brookings. Take a look at this ESPNHS ranking story on his school.
