2017 Recruiting List

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Factors such as university specialties, location of girlfriends and differences in scholarship amounts that are offered cost schools recruits every year. Losing a couple to a rival school is no big deal. The Jacks are likely to come out fine in the big picture.

It gives Cousin Eddy a reason to post. You can not leave that out. To quote Filbert's signature. "I think we will be okay." An agreeable post.

Well they've got a head coach who has won two national championships. Even if they were DII he can sell to the kids he will bring one to Vermillion.

A pretty hard sell though in my opinion. UM-Duluth competing in the NSIC is a bit different than USD competing in the Missouri Valley.

Conference wins since 2012 (USD's first Season)
NDSU - 36
SDSU - 28
ILST - 27
YSU - 22
UNI - 22
SIUI - 17
INST - 14
WIU - 14
MSU - 11
USD - 9

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

I'm been following Jacks as close as anybody since we've gone DI and this is the first year I've seen USD win recruiting battles against us. I'm not sure how he's doing it, but I think Coach Nelson's class looks better than ours.

Obviously, nobody knows how it will pan out in the end. More than anything, I'm curious as to what USD's selling point is? I'm obviously biased, but I don't see one area that we don't outrank them besides overall success of the head coach and maybe playing a dome.

It would be kind of fun/interesting if we take a poll and ranked all the MVC schools by recruiting factors.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Dang, I really liked Koerner. Again, I really wish Nielson wasn't in Vermillion. He's a good recruiter.

Overall I'm confident we have a really solid group of recruits coming in. I really hope that Seven Wilson settles on us. His Twitter bio says "SDSU Sleeper commit" or something like that.

USED is not paying Nielsen those big bucks to tiddle his thumps. Some here have him pegged as a failure, but not me. Good old Cousin Edddy. He knows how get under rabbit skin.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Yes, I get it. I guess thats what under the radar does for a some kids. I understand he had a bad experience in Jr high and decided football just wasn't for him. Some kids bloom late! His O Line coach was Brenden Stai, NFLer, and says this kid is the real deal. Think about it, have you ever seen many sophomores, 2 year experience, play like this guy does?

Why did he only play two years? He's very raw but looks really powerful. Big boys are the hardest to project to college. There is such a disparity in size between the REALLY big kids and the normal sized high school lineman. Also, I'd be surprised if we brought in many more linemen. We already have 10 coming in plus Jack Domandle (2016 prize recruit) will be enrolling this spring.

Re: 2017 Recruiting List

Speaking of Nebraska Pipeline. Has anyone seen this OT, 6'5" 300 Jack Carnie? With it being only his second year playing ball, no wonder why hes under the radar. My gosh, you resdshirt him and WOW!! He has just received his 3rd offer and USD is one of them. At the SDSU camp this summer he was noticed for his quick hands and fast feet. Someone is going to get a real gem!

CJ Colden, WR, verbals to Wyoming.
https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/maple/188734

It sucks that Wyoming was actually good this year. Another program to compete with for the second tier Nebraska players. USD with Nielson has also picked up a couple of strong Nebraska recruits. It might not be the pipeline it has been for us in prior years. I guess we will see!
