Glad he is bringing his Mom. She will love our coaching staff.

Glad he is bringing his Mom. She will love our coaching staff.

I completely agree. Having a kid at a BBQ, is very inconsequential compared to a kid visiting with his mom. Family matters to Kill and Co., so having his mom there could really help.

Sherels is recruiting Brown so that may be what that tweet was about.

17 hour drive?! I'm going to go out on a limb here and say we must be serious contenders for him if they are driving 17 hours to visit!

Justin Reid is #164. I'm really hoping LSU and Stanford don't offer.

Justin Reid is #164. I'm really hoping LSU and Stanford don't offer.

From what I've seen Stanford is more interested in a tall 4 star corner that's more of a tweener as in either Buncom or Meeks already getting a commit from Farrar. LSU has a 4 star corner in Xavier Lewis and a three star safety in Henry. It seems more interested in getting another 4 star DB pursuing at least four . That said I really don't know how many DB's will be signed by either team

Dimonic Roden-McKinzy did the same thing with his dad from KC and committed before long.

confirmed hand timed!

It took him 17-hours to get here from KC? I think the point of the original post was that he was investing 34-hours of driving. A bit different than 12.

That he drove here from KC with his dad. Period.

 

[die hard gopher]

Do you guys think Kirkwood or Roderick can move their feet as quick as Femi-Cole? I'm not sure i do.

Marcus blog: Gophers recruiting: Canadian 3-star RB Jonathan Femi-Cole, who resembles Adrian Peterson, is a Gopher

Although he’s still a senior in high school, Femi-Cole is similarly built to Peterson (also wears No. 28) with a chiseled 6-foot, 220-pound frame. The Canadian standout committed to the University of Minnesota while visiting campus Saturday for the team’s recruiting barbecue at TCF Bank Stadium.

Coach Kill is no dummy. He will not offer to a kid that he doesn't think can help us grow.

Welcome aboard Jonathan.

I expect Connelly and Croft to be bumped when Rivals gets around to doing their post camps evaluations.
