Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

This tall skinny kid must be very quick or he would not be roaming the halls of SDSU. I think that he turned down NDSU and USD for us says something good for him and our football program.

i take it u know who this was?

Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

I've never understood it, but it seems like all not top BCS schools try to take great offensive players and try to make them play defense even though they have never done it...

The reason they do that is because you want your more athletic players on defense. You'll see a lot of defensive linemen in college that try out as offensive linemen in the NFL. It's just easier because the quickness usually isn't there compared the the elite players. Also, factor in that they were deep at RB, they were probably trying him there in case one of the young linebackers got hurt or didn't play as well as expected.

Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

explanation is quite simple actually....Big TE's move inside and get a 70 #.....mid majors and smaller recruit a lot of RB's & WR's....move some to defense.....this is because if a fast athletic kid is on defense he's recruited by the big boys....

Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

if u remember stefan's spring game of his freshman year he lead the team in rushing. then they made him switch to his unnatural position of linebacker and then switched back to running back and got put behind everyone on the depth chart. coaches didnt give the great athlete a chance to perform on the field this past fall. i think it is a mistake that the coaches didn't execute

Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

That is unfortunate but not unexpected. Good luck to Stefan at St. Cloud, they got a good one.

Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

heard running back stefan geissler transferred

This is kinda sad news to hear for me personally cause I work with Stefan this summer and he was a real good kid. Not unexpected though, as he had been slowed by injuries and got behind a lot of good backs on the depth chart. Hopefully he is successful at St. Cloud.

Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

I agree with the QB and Oline. The o line needs to be able to pass block much better and get the run game going to help take pressure off the new QB. We need to get the ball to Minnett as much as possible in both the running game and passing game. I'm also kind of worried about the interior defensive line. Replacing Schroder will be hard and we need more depth to be able to rotate guys in.

Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

he probably wouldn't of played much anyways...

We return the main backs of
Minnett
Duffy
Monke
I'm missing one
and then we add Tyrel Kool....

I think looking at next year it will depend on 3 things

QB play
DB play
and how good the O-Line is...

If the O-Line is powerful and we can run the ball a lot and slowly work in the QB (the 2 that we have are red-shirt freshman)... it will be a big help....
