Re: 2020 Recruiting List
Here are a few names to keep an eye on for February. The first two OT recruits have recently been offered. I'd like to land 2 of these three.
OT- Colby Christianson, 6’8, 240, West Des Moines. https://www.hudl.com/athlete/8023665...02961198c488a8
https://twitter.com/colbyc89/status/...856707584?s=21
Offers from: UMASS, Indiana State
OT- Noah Stewart, 6’7, 245, North Muskegon, MI
https://www.hudl.com/video/3/6609932...ecd10df4927a57
https://twitter.com/noahstew71/statu...934856193?s=21
Offers from: Illinois State
OT- Albert Reese IV, 6'7, 295, Edmonton, Alberta
https://www.hudl.com/video/3/9323459...f6550de008b567
Jacks haven't offered yet but he has received offers from: UMASS, Illinois State, and Grambling
RB- Kenyetta Williams, 6’0 190, Joliet, IL
I don’t think we’ve officially offered but coaches did take an in-home visit last week and he’s taking an OV in January. I’d expect an offer to come then.

Other offers: Cincinnati, FAU, EMU, Ball State, WIU, Ind St, Valparaiso
Here is a long shot...
WR- Luke Grimm had his scholarship pulled/reduced by Kansas and didn’t sign yesterday. The Jacks were on him hard this spring. He’d be a great addition to the class at wide receiver.

I hope we add a TE but I'm not sure what is out there. I think a PWO if nothing else.

The way I see it, when you are a 4 star they recruit to build depth around you. When you are a walk on they recruit to replace you. Very good player, but a scholarship wasn't coming anytime soon and Lincoln is pricey.

This late bloomer made some big plays for Husker's special teams. He also works really hard. Take a look at his squat he has posted on twitter. As Matt Masker shared on his account, that is 705 lbs. being squatted by a 190 lb. man. His best is still ahead of him.

Re: 2020 Recruiting List
Originally posted by BTownJack View PostYes, you bring up a good point. Our program isn't overly attractive to incoming 2020 QBs right now. But then I remember the mass exodus that we had this year in the QB room and suddenly Heidi goes from #5 to #2 and starting half the season.
In the past, it seemed like Stig has been reluctant to pull the starter even in blowouts (New Hampshire anyone?). Maybe giving the backup some series here and there helps retain QB's. Maybe you utilize a QB kinda like the Saints use Taysom Hill.

Originally posted by GopherHole View PostLosing a QB is tough, but I'd have second thoughts coming here too if playing time is at the top of the list. Gibbs and Heide both have 3 years of eligibility left and there's the potential to redshirt Heide in the next year or two and could have the next four years locked up. You have to be confident in your abilities when signing with a team, but it would be a tactic that another coaching staff could promote that you could play for another team sooner than with the Jackrabbits.
Locking up QB recruits in the next class or two may be more important than this year's class. I can also see adding depth with D1 transfers in the next couple of years.

Re: 2020 Recruiting List
Losing Taylor sucks but we would really be hurting to lose our QB as well...

Jace will be able to call himself an FBS football player but he will be going to a team that we would beat more often than not. SMH.
