Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Coach Rogers and Coach Eck both tweeted about a big time recruit from Southern Minnesota. Any ideas?

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Thought you'd like to know a little bit more information about one of our next great linebackers. I'm going to take a little liberty in saying that he will be great as we all know that some of the best recruits can fail. I just believe on how he has matured in the last year both on and off the field, that he will be ready to make a significant contribution during his future years as a Jackrabbit. I had a chance to talk with his dad a couple of weeks ago and they are excited about his future at SDSU and that it is relatively close so that they can travel to his games easily.

He was named the Kearney Hub Defensive Player of the Year. There have been previous players who have received the Kearney Hub's offensive or defensive awards that have performed well at the D1 level and even NFL and MLB. This story highlights his skills and gives a good snapshot of what kind of kid and player he will be.

LB - Noah Urbanek, 6'2" 210, Kearney, NE - HUDL
Offers: NDSU, Illinois State, UNI, USD, Colgate

Hmm a Bison offer. Was that a PWO?

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

His twitter profile says he has a 30 ACT, he can probably go to any school in the region for free, I too would go along with you that he is PWO.

You are correct, he is a PWO. I spoke to Eck after he USD game and he mentioned he was going to walk on.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

I'm calling BS on this, regardless of who it comes from.

I probably didn't do a good job of making it clear that was sarcasm.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

I'm sure the offers weren't comparable. No way a recruit picks SDSU over NDSU if the money is equal.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

I mentioned Malik Poppenga after watching the state championship game. Here is host stat line for the year. He was also named to the all-state team. I hope we at least offer him a PWO. He has the frame to put on some weight.

• End — Malik Poppenga, Colman-Egan: The athletic senior led a Hawk defense that allowed just 141 points in 2016 as he came up with 78 tackles — 18 for loss — 12 sacks, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery and two interception returns for touchdowns. He also blocked a kick and forced a safety this season. Poppenga’s career numbers included 93 tackles — 18 for loss — 16 sacks, three INTs and three fumble recoveries, in addition to his blocked kick and safety.

“Malik is an athlete with very special abilities,” said Williamson of his All-DVC performer. “He had to be accounted for on all pass plays as he is an excellent pass rusher, along with an excellent team player. His two pick-sixes this year were amazing catches.”

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Costner Ching (dad played at SDSU) is a verbal commit. 6'3" 250 lbs.
http://www.thepublicopinion.com/spor...af0a79552.html

• Tight End — Costner Ching, Castlewood-Estelline: The larger-than-life senior caught 15 passes for 186 yards and two touchdowns in 2016. Ching also was on the receiving end of four two-point conversions as he earned Co-MVP All-Dakota Conference honors after being named to the All-DVC team for three straight seasons.

“Costner is a great worker and leader,” Castlewood-Estelline head coach Doug Ruesink said of the South Dakota State commit. “Definite All-State (material).”

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Only offers I see he had were from University of Mary and Minot St. So if I were to guess SDSU offer was a Preferred Walk On.

His twitter profile says he has a 30 ACT, he can probably go to any school in the region for free, I too would go along with you that he is PWO.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Was he offered by either UND or NDSU?

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Wow, got a ND kid to come south. Nice to see that happen rather than the other way around for a change.

I'm sure the offers weren't comparable. No way a recruit picks SDSU over NDSU if the money is equal.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

The class continues to be dominated by OL/DL. 9 or 10 out of 15, depending if you consider Winkleman a DE or LB.
