[TheJackWePack5]

Although still committed to other teams, a few very high on the list are:

Kenny Robinson (WVU)
Robert Hudson (Purdue)
Michael Onyemaobi (Cal)
Matt Leo (Arizona)

Also hope we lock up Bolton soon. Sounds like some others are going to be swooping in late (Ole Miss, UNC).

 

[buf87]

So how many do we need for class and who on the list are top targets? Thanks

Heard about Bolton, Chandler, Munford, Hafiz, Jones, and Allen

 

[bozclone]

247 lists Kyle Bolden of Colerain HS as a recent ISU offer (Dec 10). I thought we were interested in Howard Watkins from Colerain also, but haven't heard anything recently.

 

[NATEizKING]

Thanks, I've added the two new categories for those players.

 

[NATEizKING]

Former ISU signee Lonnie Johnson set to commit in 1h40m, but it looks like it won't be to ISU.

[NATEizKING]

Former ISU target Keisean Nixon commits in 3d19h40m, but I believe he eliminated ISU.

[buf87]

Any other info on the silent commit that never got announces a couple weeks ago? Speculation on who?

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

Man what a freeking fire storm. I just hope we land some of these higher level 3 stars. Would easily be the best recruiting class in history. Excited about the future.

 

[clonedude]

Gotta get immediate impact help on OL and DL or next year will also be 3 or 4 wins again.

Just the simple fact of the matter. We've got enough at the skill positions to be successful IMO, but are getting whipped on both sides of the line of scrimmage. Until that changes, I won't expect any more wins. It's still a physical game and always will be, no matter how some schools think you can basically win playing 7 on 7 and just throwing it on every down and playing no defense like a lot of Big 12 teams do. And look where the Big 12 is now. Terrible.

Hard commit to UK according to his profile now

 

[NATEizKING]

Updated Chandler top 3, added Lynn Bowden top 10, Denaro now has profile, added two signees.

 

[NATEizKING]

Updated with 2 commit watches this week, Hafiz removed, a few new additions.

 

[demoncore1031]

247 lists Kyle Bolden of Colerain HS as a recent ISU offer (Dec 10). I thought we were interested in Howard Watkins from Colerain also, but haven't heard anything recently.

We are still on Watkins. Also, Bolden's brother Dan is a 2018 LB prospect that we are in on.

 

[demoncore1031]

Andrew Ward will visit on Jan. 13th according to 247sports. I also think we might get a surprise commit from a high 3 or low 4 star that we haven't discussed here yet. Just a hunch.

My current top 5 wish list would be:
1. Caleb Chandler OL
2. Keontae Jones S
3. Andrew Ward LB
4. Munford, Watkins or Bolton on the OL
5. Michael Onyemaobi ATH

Lynn Bowden would be huge, but probably a long shot.

To me Onyemaobi needs to be number 1 or 2 now that we are out for Hafiz. It would also be good to get him in case we lose Kam

Watkins is 6th on the coaches OL wishlist and is likely going to choose Illinois. He's also behind Hudson and Robbins.

Also I don't think Ward is a take for the staff and could be headed to Nebby.

I would add Kenny Robinson to the list.

Agree with your other choices.

Good point. I thought we have more DB commits than we actually do.

 

[Stewo]

Good point. I thought we have more DB commits than we actually do.

If we wouldn't have pulled Hafiz' offer, we would have had a new defensive back and a new DB. A two-for-one kinda thing.

 

[jburke]

Can I get a better understanding on why everyone thinks that Kam is flipping? I know Cam Akers and Kam were trying to work the package deal to Ole Miss.... But that school is on the edge of sanctions. I honestly think the FSU, OSU lean is going to be what Cam Akers comes down to. Which leaves Kam White committed to and signing with us....
