2019 Recruiting List

Re: 2019 Recruiting List

Cole Frahm, former kicker from Nebraska is one of the other OVs. Strong leg forsure. I think he would have two years of eligibility left once Chase V. graduates.

The kid looks athletic and his results are good, but his mechanics seem odd to me. It appears like his taking a jab at the ball and does not follow through. On his long FG attempts, I don't think his kicking foot ever reaches knee high. The resulting hop with his plant foot also looks odd, but I'm sure he has to do something to keep balance after the recoil of his kick.

In his defense, it is his natural kicking motion and kicking expert, Coach Zauner, advocates that with a number of the kickers that he coaches. I'm also curious if the quick punch of the ball reduces the fade or draw of the ball in its flight path. Any kicking experts on board who can provide some insight?

Regardless, welcome aboard Cole! Depth and competition are important at any position of the field.

Like a chip shot in golf not a full swing and follow through. Almost like he is afraid to extend or maybe he had some one go for block and bull doze him. Like he pulls up so people wont run into him.

Were the football recruits at the basketball game today? Hope to see some commits by Monday.

We saw them leave Cubbies after womens game was over so I am guessing that is where they were heading

Re: 2019 Recruiting List

Sounds like Devin Blakely now has an offer.

Re: 2019 Recruiting List

Tyrece Frater also received an offer on his official visit. https://twitter.com/tyrece_frater/st...375964160?s=20
Here is his tape if you haven't watched it yet. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/5639441...5e89121c91d725

Blakley did indeed get an offer on his visit. https://twitter.com/dblake1130/statu...056344582?s=20
His tape: https://www.hudl.com/video/3/6351778...ed910e041acd4f

These would be two big additions. Blakley would give us another STUD running back and Frater will be a beast in the trenches when he fills out.

Looking at Frater's size, speed, and film, it doesn't seem like his offers match his talent thus far. Are coaches seeing him as a tweener and not sure what position to play him at? To me he seems to be super undervalued especially playing HS ball in Florida.

Re: 2019 Recruiting List

Is Blakely being recruited primarily as a running back or a corner/safety?

He previously committed to Miami of Ohio. Rivals had him listed as a corner when he was a RedHawks commit for 8 months.

Running back

Johnson, Blakley, Frater, Strohbeen, and Cole Frahm. I think the 6th player cancelled. I can speculate who it is but I'm not 100% certain.

Re: 2019 Recruiting List

Three weeks from today is final signing day. What holes need to be filled in this class and whom might we expect to sign?

Evan Hull is high on my list, but Coach K is pursuing him hard to Manhattan, KS.

Re: 2019 Recruiting List

Thought maybe we would learn of a verbal or two from the 5 that visited last weekend!
