Christ, I just hope dax doesn't go nutso on me again.

[fatty fat fat]

I saw his video. Fluid, fast, quick. Love this pickup.

[michigancat]

He's faster than Jake Sharp.

I am noticing that many of the better local players aren't even considering ku.   The kid out of St. Joe who now is suddenly all interested in Bama ... his dad didn't even put ku in the list of schools he's considering, even thought ku has been in contact.

[swish1]

is it a bad sign if the guys not even listed on scout?

Stars don't mean anything.

Here we go agian....

 

I can't wait until there is something to talk about....  This is getting lame.

[sonofdaxjones]

Well, he was listed on rivals, and according to ku's guy Mangino and another coach were just in to see him at the end of April.

Plus, I have never said stars don't matter at all, but I've seen to many of these kids turn into the best players KSU has ever had to get all upset about the fact that some don't have offers right now.   Plus, nobody has stars yet, except for a handful of the 5 star kids on rivals.

Also consider that the kid plays RB and DB, and returned 5 kickoffs to the house last year.

Now you see him.........................................Now you don't.

[soontirfel181]

Faster than Jake Sharp? How can that be possible? I thought ol' Jake said he ran a 4.1 the other day?

Real or not, it's a good read.

---------------------------------------------------
I have a side job covering NAIA football in the Kansas City area. I write for a publication called NAIA Preview published out of Grand Island. (Insert Laugh here, it's unpaid, but I love it) Last Friday, I was talking to one of the new coaches in the area. He has been the DC at Northern Colorado the last three seasons, but because of his religious beliefs he took a head job at an NAIA Christian Institution in Suburban KC.

We got on the subject of recruiting and how NAIA recruiting differs from D-IAA recruiting. In the NAIA you can sign a kid the day before Fall enrollment ends, even if practice has already started. But he wants to carry his same practices from D-I and start recruiting kids early at his new NAIA program. One kid he has been on big time is a kid named Justin Woods from Mill Valley High School in Shawnee, KS.

Justin's older brother had played at this NAIA program about 4 years ago, so he thought he could get on this kid, make him a nice offer and keep him from the JUCO route. Unfortunately, he won't have a chance since Justin Woods has committed to K-State.

Woods has excellent speed. He's very fast, and this NAIA school believed he had NAIA All-AMerican Track ability and could be a two or three year starter for their football team. They really believed between the track and football programs, they could make him a great scholarship offer.

I called this coach this morning and told him Woods had just committed to K-State. He was shocked. He couldn't believe it. He said he would not have recruited Woods to play defense at Northern Colorado, let alone K-State.

Then again, this NAIA Coach has actually Coordinated a defense before, unlike K-State's D-coordinator.

Justin Woods is very fast. He ran a 10.6 hundred weekly during the track season, but his football skills are not conducive for the Big 12. He played in a below average 4A conference in Kansas. He never faced a D-I receiver or QB all season, and his real value is on offense. He's the kind of kid who becomes a big time small college running back. ku did not offer him either, and he plays football 18 minutes from Lawrence.

I hope Justin Woods develops into a great football for K-State because if he's as nice as his brother, then he's a great kid. Secondly, I can't blame him for taking the offer. He was looking at the JUCO route, or paying money out of pocket at the NAIA/D-II level. Who wouldn't accept a full scholarship offer from a D-I program? Unfortunately for Woods though, I'm afraid he's going to be sorely overmatched in the Big 12.

What the Heck is going on at K-State?

[fatty fat fat]

I cannot belive this recruiting class.

14 commits....10 of them are totally questionable.

[fatty fat fat]

it came from "predictionking"

dude tried to make the argument that the 2005 ksu nu game wasn't close.

err..27-25 isn't close?

Those Fuskers are funny people.

I was at that game in Lincoln and the game was about as CLOSE and evenly matched as you can get. In fact.......KSU had quite a few chances to win the game and just blew it....and then NU makes a lucky field goal in the closing seconds.

Of course don't tell the red folks that......they'll tell ya a different story all together.  

[fatty fat fat]

It's a terrible argument. Yardage was dead even and we ran the ball. It's not like we got a few fluke passes.

[sonofdaxjones]

If Everidge could've hit a bull in the ass passing, KSU would've won that game.

But yeah don't tell that to the corn ... according to Cornhole Nation they kicked our ass up and down the field.

Top 40 times at Baton Rouge combine #2 Dee Bell (4.39), Top Shuttle Runs #7 Dee Bell.  Bench Reps #8 Jayson Cuba.

Speaking of Miami ... last year half of their recruiting class was 3 stars or less in the vaunted, highly scientific "star system".  In fact, I see where two of their signees had no offers from other schools and they beat out Akron, Rutgers and Tennessee State for another.  Man ... Miami is going to suck.  And that's going by the offer list in freaking Feb.  Not May.

i think i'm officially "concerned"

[FBWillie]

If our defense wouldn't have had a late hit on a QB that has never completed a pass in College football, that drive would have been over, and our offense could have ran the clock out.

[sonofdaxjones]

Back to Woods ... it's being reported that both Mangino and Hawkins made "in schools" on Woods earlier in the year.

Good...sounds like we should be evenly matched when we play in 5 years.
