I've always followed Gopher football but not to this extent -since Coach Kill took over. I know Nebraska built their dynasty with a highly publicized Walk-On Program and I can't help but think that there are a lot of similarities between the two states football players. I have to imagine that this is huge recruiting and player development tool that Kill has emphasized here at the U. So many Division I "tweeners" come out of Minnesota and go to good I-AA programs like NDSU, SDSU, etc... Now, Kill is building depth, State pride, and possibly getting All-Conference players for free. (without using Scholarships)
Is this something the U has been known to do? Is this something Kill put a lot of emphasis on at Northern Illinois? Perhaps he sees a real hidden gem here at the only Division I program in a good football state.
Your thoughts?
