    Re: 2009 Recruiting Class

    Looks like we now have an offer out to Cooper Wahlo Jr. He plays out of Woodbury HS and I remember Terry mentioning in one of his live game blogs he saw a Woodbury jacket. I'm guessing he was on campus this weekend. I've included a link to his Rivals.com profile on the list. Only us and NDSU have made him an offer to this point.

    Is this one of those where he made up his recruitment, your see a few kids every year do it... heck one guy got on ESPN because of it.... or did he just say that I'm going to SDSU with or without a scholarship?

    A lot of South Dakota Football talent this year. Incidently Ledbetter has a teamate at Washington that is a sophmore and 6'8 280 (Derek Farniok) that we may want to keep an eye on. Hopefully we hear something on the two young men from O'Gorman soon.
    Douglas and Farniok are studs for sure. Chase has been getting attention from Iowa and Minnesota. Getting either of these kids would be huge.

    It was in this morning's Argus Leader. I subscribe to the e-edition, so I found it on C-3 in the "short sports items" they run every day. Doubt there was a separate story that you could see by going to the Argus web site.

    This latest signing appears to be a big in-state committment. Coupled with the Madison recruits on men's basketball and the in-state women recruits, this could be a real turning-point year for Jack Nation as far as homegrown talent.


    Here's one perspective regarding the Nebraska 11th-hour walk-on appeal that they KNOW will result in this recruit going back on his word.

    Would Stig do it to another program or to a kid he may not really know will get to fulfill a "dream?"

    Never know for sure, but from what we perenially hear recruits say about Stig, seems very, very doubtful, doesn't it?

    Part of that character our newest young recruit mentioned.

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, Neb. fb is every MWestern kid's dream, Big 12 is win-win-win, cutthroat, you do everything within the rules (and sometimes outside them, perhaps?) to win. But as long as this coaching regime is in Lincoln, will this recruiting episode be the first thing you think of any time "Nebraska football" comes to mind? It will be here.

    Certainly, 18-year-olds sometimes make 18-year-olds' decision, and a kid just starting in life can't be faulted for following a dream. But what life lesson will taken by a young man that had made a committment to a program that, presumably, had dealt with him straight up? Think the rest of his life will provide other committment moments - on jobs, family, etc.?

    I understand you guys are upset about what happened last year, but can we not turn a thread about something good for SDSU into yet another thread b*tching about something else. Don't tell me if I don't like it not to read it either, because this is about the only thread I read anymore cause all the other threads seem to have turned into sour grapes threads also.

    Maybe the mods can create another area labeled "B*tches about other threads"

    He didn't only play, he was the Big 12 defensive player of the week one week. Pretty amazing for a freshman linebacker.

    Walk-on program is fine but stealing kids that have given a verbal literally the night before they sign the piece of paper is a little ridiculous, it would of been one thing if it was a month or 2 before, or 1 thing if they had been in contact over the situation, but when you do it the night before its getting into that gentle mens agreement between coaches not to actively recruit other coaches verbals...... Its one thing if these players have talked to the university since giving there verbal and actively trying to receive a walk on but when you call a kid the night before and say hey we want you to walk on here you've gone 2 far in my eyes....
