Recruiting rankings, in my opinion, don't mean jack S***. Remsburg is a great get. His game tape speaks for itself.

Very true for olineman imo, you can't teach size. I trust that Manning will work him up to being a big 12 lineman in a couple years.

Great pickup...welcome aboard Jake. It's going to be hard to stop this train as it is already rolling down the tracks and picking up speed. Yep, put something extra in my coffee this morning...

;)

In general they mean something, but on an individual level it’s not sufficient. Particularly on the OL. I’d bet that every year this state will produce 5 to 8 guys that are P5 starter level linemen by the time they’re seniors, but a good portion of them will start as walkons.

Remsburg doesn't have a star rating, but with that size and not even a a HS senior....damn sure he will be atleast a 3 star and get more offers. Momma feeding him well. Hope he sticks with us. Line is the most important position group, this is a solid addition to get the 2019 recruiting rolling.

Does anyone know where the film is of valley vs Dowling from last fall?

I assume Remsburg lined up vs Waggoner quite a bit.

How'd he do?

He has taken Orlando Pace's pancake block to the next level. It is called the waffle block because he leaves them flat on their back like a pancake block but with cleat marks on them as he runs them over.





;)
I vote we call him IHOP because he will be serving up waffles and pancakes 24/7. And maybe crepes? Omlettes as well. Crap - now I have to google IHOP menu...

I heard this discussed by some recruiting guy on the radio the other night. He said while Waggoner beat him a couple of times, Rembsburg got a lot of notice that game for how he held his own against Waggoner. The recruiting guy had him flagged as a player to watch and his stokc was going up. Talked up the ND involvement in his recruiting.

Following this pattern: there is a kid in Nevada (ia) that went out for FB near the end of the his jr season this year. 6’2” 275, very strong kid. Was into lifting and continues even more so now. Anxious to see how he does, as he fills out.
