I don't know if PJ offers more, maybe we're just in an age where folks tweet it MORE and we hear about it more.
Having said that PJ makes it clear that he offers a lot of scholarships first come first serve so obviously there are more out there than spots, but if they are first come first serve, I think it's ok to offer more than you have. If they kid wants it, he can have it, if he waits, can't wait for everyone...
I think 1st come, 1st served also means that they need to visit campus officially or unofficially to commit.
IMHO, OC Charles Turner at IMG remains very interested in joining former teammates Dunlap, Faalele, and Zak Anexstad. We may be developing a pipeline with IMG Academy. It is entirely possible we could have signed Verdis Brown had the Gophers have room for him. The OC spot went to Nathan Boe of Lakeville which is nice that the Gophers will take a homer if they accept the offer first.
The same must be true of Carroll and Benhart. It is theirs if they seriously consider staying home and playing for the Gophers. PJF has offers out to other OL and probably won't be a problem if we lose these two. There must be a window that the Gophers need an answer from these two.
Man, I would really be shocked if we end up with either Carroll or Benhart. Everything I've heard says that Benhart isn't really interested in the U, and I believe that Carroll is a lock for ND. Just speculation though, based on conversations with people around MN HS football. Who knows!
I dunno, they lost their big time OL coach (we lost ours as well though), and the recent vacating of all those wins could have put some doubt in his (and his family's) mind about going there.
Why did you choose Holy Cross as your user name?I was looking at Wisky's recruiting hoping to see that Mertz may be looking to jump ship. There was a digital photo of their 2019 recruits saying they will bring them a National Title.
Mertz commented to save the pick for when it happens. Sadly, I don't think he is going to opt out of the Badgers commitment. I just hope they don't end up with Quinn or Benhart.
I hate when we lose in state talent to them.
