I'm guessing IUFB is still the favorite. Especially with Nowakowski getting drafted over the weekend. The recruiting pitch wrote itself pretty much. Hands the young man a ton of hardware and tells him what kind of role he'll be playing in 812 and than tells him to look at the TV and see who the Pittsburgh Steelers just drafted in R5.

Back on topic! If I had to guess, it was probably the best group of OVs in program history.

All that stuff gets a pass in my books. I always eff up where the 'U' is supposed to go to about half the universities in the US.

Not sure he understands the area codes yet or it's something I don't understand. It's more than likely the latter. lol.

Coach Kyle Ralph, Oglesby's current coach went to UNC. I'd bet a lot of money that Coach Ralph suggested that he at least make a visit out there. There's more to sell at the school than just Belichick's NFL connection. If I were in this young man's shoes I'd for sure be checking out the school. If he were my child, I'd absolutely point to the connections the area has for life after football.

His high school coach (somewhat equivalent to a college football Coach Cig and NFL Coach Belichick) is a UNC alum. All signs are pointing to 812FB but there's that wild card with having a solid resource surrounding him should he have any questions about Chapel-Hill and the research triangle area. It's actually a really great place to get an education. A lot of great opportunities there. Regardless of what he decides I wish him the best.

This is what I was afraid of...

Looking forward to seeing Morris play this Fall. I hope he's able to stay healthy.

That was close. I was sweating bullets until the Jets pulled through! I'm viewing Coop to the Jets a little differently. They're building a roster for the next franchise QB. I get it, that seems to be an endless task for this organization but it's something both Coop and McCrary-Ball can be a part of and maybe put an IUFB stamp on it in a big market. The Jets picked some solid football players and who knows if they'll pan out. Next year, they'll get another 1st round pick curtesy of the Indianapolis Colts. And depending on how bad either organization does this year they're looking at a real possibility of having multiple picks in the top 5! Next year's QB class will be solid. As a Colts fan, I'd be way more optimistic if the Colts were doing the things the Jets are doing right now. But that's just me. Regardless, I'm really happy for both Nando and Coop! Let's keep this draft IUFB players going here on day 2.

A common theme I'm seeing, top recruits are paying attention to coaching. Coaching matters.

Top 5 RB out of Richmond, TX 247 On3 He's high on IUFB and currently in Btown on a visit.

The Dude abides! He'll be playing on Sundays for sure.

Just for my own amusement. RD1: Mendoza, Coop RD2: Ponds RD3: Sarratt RD4: Fisher RD5: Black, Nowakowski RD6: Coogan RD7: Hemby, Moore We'll see post draft FA signings as well. If any of the guys above don't get drafted they get picked up along with Kamara, Daley, Wyatt, Benson, and maybe Franke

I just looked up the 76 draft. Buckner got drafted in the 14th round and Trent Smock got drafted in the 15th. Both IUBB players.

Out of curiosity, what year did that happen?

Does anyone know off hand if this is the most IUFB players projected to be drafted? I would think it probably is.

Committed to Kentucky.

The Dude abides.

Big weekend for OVs. I don't know how accurate the lists are but regardless, it's a list nonetheless. 247 List On3 List Monshun Sales Raheem Floyd Kenaz Sullivan Jayce Brewer Mason Oglesby Brady Scott Antwoine Higgins - Cancelled

Most likely won't choose IUFB. He cancelled his OV this weekend.

Yeah, it's way more complex than what Simpson is leading onto. It's way more disruptive for the front 5 than anything else. And both Sayin and Simpson don't play OL.
