I don't think there have been many, but it seems like any MN kid that has been a D1 hockey and football recruit, go the hockey route. Paul Martin, Anders Lee and Mark Alt are the few that pop into my head. Worked out pretty well for those guys.

Two of the best QB's in the state are juniors. Nick Kinsey of Stillwater and Mason West of Edina. Both have a few D1 offers already. Roman Voss of Jackson County Central is another junior QB who is a 4 star recruit and has big time offers from Cal, Iowa, Iowa State, Minnesota, Wisconsin and...

For 5A Mankato West should be solid again but they will have a sophomore QB. Chan loses a ton of players from last years state championship team but assuming they will reload. My guess is Andover will be at the top of the preseason poll.

What's the deal with Lombardi leaving Maple Grove? Gotta think Minnetonka is a short term stop until he takes over another program. Great get for Esch. Lot of wins in that coaches room.

Only two weeks away until we kick off the high school season with two a day practices. Curious to know who the favorites will be in each class to compete for state championships and who the top players in the state will be this season.

Prep Bowl Predictions 9-man: Kingsland over Nevis A- Minneota over Springfield AA- Eden Valley Watkins over Barnesville AAA- Stewartville over Annandale AAAA- Hutchinson over Rocori AAAAA- Chanhassen over St Thomas Academy AAAAAA-Edina over Centennial

6A: South over Centennial EP over Edina - future is bright for the Hornets - QB Mason West only a sophomore and has thrown for over 2,000 yards with 24 TD's this season. 5A: Alexandria over St Thomas Academy Andover over Chanhassen in a shootout

Knew JCC was really good but didn't expect them to throttle Caledonia like that. Roman Voss might be the best player in the state for his class. Saw he recently went on a visit to Iowa State. Plays QB but assuming he projects as a TE/LB-DE at the next level. 6'4 210 as a sophomore.

Yeah slim chance this kid stays home with offers out there from Ohio State, USC, Florida State and Michigan. Hope I'm wrong but I sure wouldn't blame the kid.

State tournament is set. I don't follow the smaller classes as much so I'll leave those predictions to someone else. 4A: Hill Murray vs Byron Rocori vs Orono Totino Grace vs Hutchinson North Branch vs Benilde St Margarets 5A: St Thomas Academy vs Owatonna Alexandria vs Rogers Mahtomedi vs...

Sorry meant Stillwater :ROFLMAO:

Mayo over Stillwater would be a huge one. Their WR Holcomb is a stud.

5A and 6A Section Championship Matchups: 5A: Owatonna (7-2) vs Northfield (6-3) Chanhassen (9-0) vs Mankato West (8-1) St Thomas Academy (7-2) vs Bloomington Jefferson (8-1) Mahtomedi (5-4) vs Cretin Derham Hall (5-5) Robbinsdale Armstrong (7-2) vs Robbinsdale Cooper (7-2) Rogers (8-1) vs...

My final four prediction for 6A: Rosemount Lakeville South EP Maple Grove EP over Lakeville South in the Prep Bowl

I think Mankato West gets revenge against Chanhassen in their rematch in the section final. They both have to get there first, but I think whoever wins that game will be the 5A state champ.

Anyone have any insight on Minnetonka? I know they lost their starting QB a few games into the season with a torn ACL, but I see they are still 6-1 with their only loss coming to Eden Prairie. They just put up 61 points on Buffalo last week. Seems impressive if they are playing with a backup QB.

Big Matchup in 5A as #2 ranked Rogers travels to #3 ranked Mankato West on Wednesday night. I think the only time these two teams have played each other has been in the state tournament.

They have had a few. I think Eric Stenzel '00 was the first and played D-Line and Fullback for the Gophers. Philip Nelson, Zack and Brock Annexstad being the only other West alums to play for U of M I believe. Two current NDSU players (Mekhi Collins and Owen Johnson). This years senior class has...

Is Minnetonka starting QB still hurt?

Should be a good one. I think West will try to pound the rock as much as possible to keep the ball out of Wood's hands. Their OL is the strength of the team. They have some hogs up front.
