2011 Recruiting List

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Any word on PJ Sparks? He is in Grand Forks over the weekend. This might be a case where UND being in the Big Sky might help them land a recruit from Arizona. That and his grandfather evidently went to UND. Would be nice to get another two star running back. Hopefully some of the other AZ recruits can encourage PJ to go to SDSU.

Feisty Red Head, you and your son need to work on PJ Sparks from Glendale as he is heading for a visit to UND in Grand Forks and has an offer from the Jacks.

I wonder if he knows about the Team Named Sue?

Any word on Martinson?

According to TV he sent is LOI after business hours last night. I haven't seen confirmation but I haven't been looking either.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

It looks like PJ Sparks was the RB that was set to sign with SDSU but didn't send in his LOI because he had another visit lined up.

Looks like he has a visit planned with UND.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

I would presume Taylor Bloom is a son of Tom Bloom who lettered four years at SDSU. 1987 to 1990. I see Taylor is geared toward OL which where Tom played and was a good line man. If Taylor works hard, he will see playing time.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

This kid is a player. He is so natural, with instinctive skills. Great find for the 'Bits. Playing ball in Florida is another level of talent we don't get in the midwest for high schools. He could be a player who could make immediate impact.

I love all the "dammits" in the background when he's intercepting passes..

Taylor Bloom's dad was an excellent lineman for the Rabbits in the late 80's.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Looks like another late get in Joe Martinson 5'11" 170 4.57 40 from Orlando per TV. We beat out Illinois State and Florida International.

Had 9 interceptions his junior season, runs a 4.57:

Central Florida #44 out of 60 considered "one of the area's best cover corners"(ball hawk)

And an interview before the season at a high school media day event:

Interesting get.....noticed the comment in the Orlando Sentinal article about not being sure how far north he would want to go since he had no interest in cold climates. Will be interesting to see what made him change his mind.

Attached is Martinson's highlight video:

Playing in a high class in Florida isn't probably to far off from playing college football. Sounds like another great get. The coaching staff has done a great job recruiting this year, especially coming off our worst season in DI.
