Mater Dei is on ESPN this afternoon if you want to check out Furian Inferrera. Not sure if he’s starting but I assume he’ll play.

Confirmed he's not starting, the Wisconsin commit is, but announcers say he'll play quite a bit.

Hate to say it… But the badger quarterback looks pretty good.

He certainly settled in and made the throws he was supposed to but those receivers also helped A LOT. I don't know how much we're going to be able to tell about the QB's on that team as the skill position talent there is just nuts.
 


So we've recruited a QB not starting for his high school team. Sweet

He's a Junior at Mater Dei (The #1 team in the country, where every starter is D1 quality) and a Senior transferred in. He'll play this year and likely start next year and honestly, if he plays well I don't see it as too likely he ends up here anyway. Mater Dei QB's, if they play well, are some of the most coveted players in the country.
 

Looks like all the top 2027 in state kids were hosted by ISU for the game yesterday.

Campbell recruits the state hard.

Doesn’t help them seem to turn our under recruited guys into multi year starters

speaking of Mater Dei and the QBs. They lost this weekend. Hopkins had 5 TOs (2 picks, 3 fumbles though not all were his fault). Inferrera didn't play
 





Ohio State sniffing around top-ranked

Minnesota wide receiver recruit
David Mack has produced eye-popping numbers for the Moorhead Spuds, who are in the state championship game against Edina.

Joe Nelson | 3 Hours Ago​

Moorhead Spuds wide receiver David Mack with Ohio State offensive coordinator Brian Hartline.

David Mack will play for the Class 6A state title on Friday night as the Moorhead Spuds meet the Edina Hornets at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

Last Friday, Mack scored on a five-yard slant to help Moorhead secure a spot in the Prep Bowl with a 26-14 win over Lakeville South. Then he traveled to Columbus, Ohio, where he visited Ohio State University and met with the No. 1-ranked Buckeyes.

It's unclear how much interest the Buckeyes have in Mack, as it doesn't appear that he's been offered a scholarship by Ohio State. However, the Gophers were the first FBS team to extend an offer to the junior wide receiver.
Last season, as a sophomore, Mack caught 70 passes and 18 touchdowns.

This season, he's blown those numbers away. In the regular season (eight games), Mack had 76 catches for 1,044 yards and 17 touchdowns. In four playoff games, he's totaled 38 receptions for 450 yards and eight touchdowns.
Add it all up, and Mack has 112 catches for 1,494 yards and 25 touchdowns this season.

According to 247Sports, the only offers Mack has received so far are from Minnesota and South Dakota State.

Ohio State is basically Wide Receiver U, so the fact that Mack was on campus is a pretty big deal. The Buckeyes have two possible first-round picks on the current roster in Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate, while recent seasons have seen the Buckeyes produce NFL stars Marvin Harrison Jr., Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Garrett Wilson, Terry McLaurin, Chris Olave, and Emeka Egbuka.

What's interesting is that Mack isn't even rated by 247Sports or Rivals/On3. You can't find him among the top recruits in Minnesota's graduating class of 2027, which is led by Minnesota commit Eli Diane, who stars as a pass rusher at Wayzata High School.

But with Ohio State sniffing around, it's a good bet that Mack will see some stars added to his recruiting profile in the very near future.
