2011 Recruiting List

[Jumpin Jack]

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

There definitely isn't a whole lot of WOW! involved. I do not see him as a d-lineman, pad level is way too high, and doesn't have that huge motor that interior DT's need. He is a guard or tackle on the o-line. Great thing about kids like him, he will get a few years under his belt before he is expected to play. What I like about him is that he doesn't quit on the play, he is always down field on the blocks, and made a few blocks that sprung his RB for longer gains.

Never giving up on the play is the definition of a "high motor". I think this kid has it looking at all of the hustle plays he makes. He is playing a little out of position when he is at linebacker in the film, but he is still making plays. He appears fairly quick off the ball when in a three point, which is one key ingredient to a successful interior lineman. He isn't perfect technique-wise, but what high school kid is? Coach Brown will teach him what he needs to know to perform at a high level.

He looks to me like he is in the mold of an Andy Mink, but coming in a little heavier than Andy did. I could see him being a good DT for us. He definitely has the frame to grow. Welcome to SDSU Tory, look forward to seeing you and the other recruits on the field!

Andy Mink is who came to mind when I first saw him. Andy played LB in high school, was recruited as a DE, and now plays DT for the Jacks. Right now he's probably one of the more underrated players on the team and I'm looking for big things from him next year.

Tory also reminded me a little of Mitch Pontrelli too.

If he's anything like Mink he'll be alright. I was only able to make it to one game last year and it was the Nebraska game. I asked the person next to me who number xx was he said it was Andy Mink. I was really impressed and 'motor' is how you describe that kid. Like I said, this is why it's the coaches job.

Lally looks to be a good one. His LB teammate and friend committed to NDSU earlier this week.

I find this part of the list the most intriguing. 1 loss to NDSU, UNI and USD, WIU, but two to ISU. The Redbirds are building a solid program I think. We're recruiting right in their backyard, we need to beat them this year. The rest are all going to FBS schools, which really shows the aggressive nature of the recruiting by the coaching staff (and probably exactly how hard it is to turn certain recruits to come to our little CAS)

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Even more impressive is the FBS schools we are losing kids to are nearly all BCS schools. We haven't lost many to lower level FBS teams.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

I am getting more and more excited about this recruiting class by the day. Pretty good chance I will be making to more than 2 games this season, and the following for that matter.

That's great! But this season you'll probably only be excited to see the recruits from the season before(and there are some good ones!). Highly doubt any of these kids see the field as True Freshman.
