Just committed this morning. 3-star by 247. Had over 20 offers, including Cincinnati, Temple, UCF, USF, and Syracuse. Ziemba is the 12th. member of this recruiting class.

Hopefully this doesn't hurt our chances with Rafdal

He plays on both sides of the ball and think the coaching staff sees him at defensive end.

“I feel good," Ziemba said of the fit at defensive end. "It’s not set in stone yet that I would play d-end. Coach (Kevin) Wilson and (tight ends coach James) Patton, they both like me at tight end. They really think of me as a big, lengthy guy who can be doing anything, really, but d-end is what they offered me at.”

Good. Love the high motor kids they are bringing in with this class.

I don't think it would. I really believe that the only positions that recruiting other guys at the same positions hurts you are QB and RB. 

One, those guys usually have a bigger ego than other position players. Secondly, those are the only positions where only one guy can play at a time (typically). I guess only one kicker, punter and long snapper play at a time, but we usually don't end up in heated recruiting battles for those guys. LOL.

Well, looks like the staff is doing a good job stocking up the D-line and I'm always glad to see the guys that the position coaches have to fight over to get them in their group.

Tough break. Our guy out for the season with an ankle injury per @MB_Weaver.
