Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Looks like we got 2 more commitments from the desert.

I think the big one is JR Plote, DE from Mountain Pointe (AZ) chose the Jacks over offers from S. Illinois, Air Force, and New Mexico State.

It was just posted on 24-7 football.com

Then on Scout.com it shows this kid as a verbal to South Dakota State

DE -Bryan Burke, 6'4" 230, AZ AZ Scottsdale-JUCO,

That's great news, we've been on Plote for a while, I believe his dad is from Iowa and moved to Arizona to play football in college. This is defiantly the best recruiting class I've seen at SDSU.

Here's a good article on JR and his family. Both his parents are deaf.

I like this.

Found this on Scout.com on Plote: http://hsarizona.scout.com/a.z?s=222...=1&nid=4651143

You have to think that the win against Southern Illinois was big in getting this kid. He just had his visit at SIU this past weekend.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Lots of kids from Brandon on the roster. Maybe BVHS should be called the south campus.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Dale is legit. Watched him play rec. for 2 years at Brandon. He may have played football if Nagy would not offered him so early. Coach Meadows has stayed in contact with him all four years and I know they are very interested in him playing this next season. I will try to put together some football video with some of his catches, you will be impressed.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

There's a term in football...possession receiver. Doesn't matter how fast he can run. Get him in space and throw him the ball. Can you imagine a 6'4" slot receiver running some crossing routes, out routes, 8-10 yd option routes. That's a guy I'd like to have. Back in the day that guy was a TE...slow TE. Let the guy play if he wants. He'll learn what he needs to learn without the coaches having to "invest" a ton of time in him. Heck, he's already a DI athletes. He knows the demands, he'll adapt.

Agreed.

And at the very least he'll push the returning players to compete for positions even more. Nothing like some good healthy competition on the team for playing time.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

We know the guy can leap- can he run? 40 time?

Pretty good Football bloodlines.

From his bio on gojacks.com...

named to the Argus Leader Elite-45 in football ... set school records with 45 receptions and ten touchdowns ... conference champion and 4th at the state meet in the long jump as a senior ... named the Lynx Award winner, the highest honor a Brandon Valley athlete can earn ... honor student

Personal: Dale’s uncle Johnny Rodgers won the 1972 Heisman Trophy and earned All-American honors in 1971 and 1972 at Nebraska. His cousin Bobby Newcome played for the ‘Huskers from 1997-2000 and played in the NFL with the Arizona Cardinals.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Let me leave my office here in SF and head up there and see if I can pull him out of class and get a watch on him.
I'll let you know tomorrow.

Go Jacks!!

Way to go Propar80!

BTW, IMHO if he can outleap the defender, he doesn't need to outrun him!

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

Was he recruited to play football at SDSU and anywhere else for that matter?

Coach Stig did recruit Moss to play football. I agree with True Blue, if he can help the 2011 team win games than I'm all for it.

As far as a previous statement, we do have some height at WR. Rollin is 6'1" and Freshman Jason Schneider is 6'3" and received some good reviews in fall camp. We also are bringing in 6'1" Trevor Sikink, he likely won't play next season but should help down the road.

Height at WR is a bit overrated anyways. Sure you would like to have a receiver in the 6'1" to 6'3" range, but speed, route running, and hands are all more important. It's hard to find a WR that has those three attributes and is tall because FBS schools grab them up.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

There are rumors that we was offered to play FB at a couple of the regional BCS schools. Not sure if true...but wouldn't surprise me...people that watched him play HS football couldn't believe he choose to play BB. He was that good.

Re: 2011 Recruiting List

I am not getting my bp up, but I don't care that Moss has only one year left. If he has superior athletic ability and can make us a better offensive team then we should bring him in. He still has to compete and earn the spot which makes everyone else have to do the same.
