Spirituality is the praxis and process of personal transformation, either in accordance with traditional religious ideals, or, increasingly, oriented on subjective experience and psychological growth independently of any specific religious context.

  I could see that Nidaros is not reaching too far.

In my post that followed Gopherhole, I was trying to be complimentary to Coach Stig. I was not trying to start a war or any kind of a religious argument. I about to stop posting all together as it seems to do nothing but get me in trouble with the moderators. Thanks for your support Old Hare.

I was mearly pointing out you could possibly elicit responses out of people (both for and against) that you didn't intend too. Religion, much like politics, has people that feel VERY strongly about their positions.

FYI, I saw your response post before you edited it. If you don't want something quoted, I'd suggest not posting it.

Can we stick to recruiting and not this worthless drivel please.

Re: 2016 Recruiting List

There would be multiple people who would be read-only on the board for the remainder of the calendar year if I were in a bad mood.

Fortunately, I will merely invite a return to the thread topic.

(And fear not, I am really, really bad at holding grudges.)

I think the quality of recruit will continue to improve. We will have one of the best football facilities in FCS and this coaching staff seems to really be connecting with their target recruits. The future is bright!

The recruits see the SJAC and the dirt being moved for the new stadium. These are past the pipe dream stage. The athletic department in general has many positive actions in order to attract great recruits. Maybe this is why Sell garnered the Under Armor AD of the Year designation for the FCS.

Re: 2016 Recruiting List

Depending on how you define "quality" student-athlete, Jacks in D-I have been graduating and retaining better students who also happen to be good to GREAT Athletes. Our athletes value the education they receive. SDSU will rarely be the first choice for those athletes who entire goal is become a pro. However, the staffs, the facilities, and the fan support match or exceed all but the most highly regarded programs.

In FCS football, only Montana, NDSU, Montana St., James Madison, Delaware are 4-5K better attended consistently than the Jacks. With the SJAC, the Dana Dykhouse Stadium, and the successful program since the move up to D-I, SDSU is attracting better athletes who value the education that they will receive. Clean, safe, smaller upper mid-west city, those that don't crave the big city, and all its accompanying distractions can be a good place for the type of student athletes that are "Jackrabbit ready". Many of the MAC or Sunbelt schools would like the situation that the Jacks enjoy.

Re: 2016 Recruiting List

The student athlete has been a concern of Stig for some time. At the time before the transition to D1, Stig was at one of those golf days for SDSU and I was able to visit with him quite some time about his concern for academics. It may have been the summer of 1997. The coaching staff has had student and athlete put together for many years indeed. The overall GPA for athletes at SDSU is impressive.

This is probably one of the best qualities of Stig. We don't really have to worry about off-field issues....that's a luxary this day and age. No question Stig is a top notch human.
