IUFB Recruiting and Transfer Portal Updates

[Lebowski]

A spot to put all the recruiting and transfer portal updates/news. 

I'm not sure where to create this. I contemplated of placing recruiting news in this here but then though it should be separate.

Man I want us to land Sales in the worst way.

He is from Indiana, would be our first 5* ever and I would like us to be known as a place where WR’s shine.

@HoosierHuddle asked the question in this presser.

For context:
2023

  247 IUFB Composite Rank - 66
  247 OSU Composite Rank - 5

  247 IUFB Composite Rank - 49
  247 OSU Composite Rank -  4

2026
  247 IUFB Overall Rank - 30
  247 OSU Overall Rank - 6


Another way to see the gap closing is by the Avg.

  OSU Avg: 91.51
2025
  IUFB Avg: 88.0
  OSU Avg: 92.07

Where in the heck did you hear that? Don't play with my feelings because that would be a grand slam home run if Marsh is a Cignetti kind of personality.

Assuming he's the right sort the kid's basically Sarratt, right? Would be as easy as yes's get.

Faster than Sarratt. I just watched him being interviewed. He seems to be a clear-eyed, honest kid - talks about dealing with adversity in his post-UM game interview.

Holy ****, his brother Andrew Marsh is also top 150 overall recruit and a strong-@$$ slot guy. Would Nick join him? Not at Andrew's school - he plays for the passing game disaster that is Michigan!

Andrew just finished a very, very good freshman year, and Nick is only a sophomore.

Nick Marsh, Andrew Marsh, Becker, and Bond/Chandler would be an amazing WR room. And that's if Coop goes pro - he has another year of eligibility left.

I mean their UM and MSU bios have completely different sets of parents and hometowns listed. I had the same question early in the season and looked into it.

I live my life by believing everything I read on the internet as fact. I read that somewhere and clearly they were wrong lol.

2026 QB possibility.  

Based on success with Rourke, Mendoza, Cig etc I expect us to be linked to several top QB’s.

Imagine there will be some guys from UM we'll want to take a look at
