2026 Football Targets

TE Jensen is now a Mizzou recruit.

Missouri commit? Hardly a surprise. He was the one of the four I thought least likely.

Our best bet for a TE is Premer. Gotta hammer it out of the park this weekend

I'd bet on Premer going to Notre Dame, but damn would it be awesome to get him. Would be the highest rated commit in school history. I know he has a good relationship with the coaches and with Brahmer, so we do have a shot.

That was 99.99% done once OSU offered. Delaware is suburb of Columbus and every kid in the area dreams of playing for the Bucks.

Must be nice to be OSUs rb coach, wait until ISU identifies the best 3star rb in Ohio who should be a 4star, then offer so you don’t have to chase the national rbs as freshman. So stupid.

Interesting that there is only one in-state commitment for this class so far.

Well, it’s a thin year. Of the other eight, three are in Hawk territory, one doesn’t want to wait his turn in a crowded safety room, one we aren’t interested in, and one is gong to wrestle.

The other two are visiting.

Sometimes the chips just fall that way.

Trieu is calling him a DL.

And at a brief look at his hudl, he looks it. With the chaos DL recruiting has been, that would make perfect sense.

Edit: After watching all of his junior Hudl, I’d guess it depends on how much weight he puts on. Currently lists himself at 6’7” 235.

He looks like he has potential at both OT and DE, but like you said, he will need to add weight and develop. Would take a few years before he contributed. It would be nice if he ended up being a David Irving type player.

I was thinking about Irving as well, though not as athletic. Currently wondering if he got the invite at yesterday’s OL camp.
