Who the frack are we recruiting?

Starting in late November after OB took the job, there were like 6 legit dual threat guys by my count on the list that we recruited and of course struck out swinging on last year.

Terrance Cain

A.J. Graham

Denard Robinson

Tyrik Rollison

Raymond Cotton

Angelo Pease

We obviously have already thrown in the proverbial towel on Cam. So, seriously, who the eff else are we targeting and when the eff are we going to see these names pop up?

?

Thanks in advance for the serious responses.

Allegedly. I consider anyone that doesn't make it on campus as "striking out", though.

I think that is just is rating by users. Not really a good indicator as I think Tate Snyder is pushing four stars thanks to the tards.

looking at his number they are impressive although if were looking to immediate help look no further than this cat we need him badly

Yes, dax, you're correct. Pease was a Hutch placement and is a 2011 recommit for us.

As for additional QBs in this class, I don't know that we'll take another high school QB in addition to Cosh but could be wrong.

JUCO options include: Cam Newton (wouldn't count him out yet), Dominique Blackman, and Dominique Davis out of Fort Scott.

Agreed. Looks badass and has one intangible Cosh doesn't posess

.

Plus, OU is looking at him and if I understand BMW, the brilliant football mind, post's correctly that means he's a high level recruit that if we sign will be a "steal" form them.

If that kid ever plays qb for KState, we will really have some problems.

He has quite the list of college choices. Think he is setting his standards too high?

Ive seen the kid play a couple of times, he's a nice athlete, but a very, very raw qb project. I wouldn't mind having him on the roster as an athlete. I just figure that, if he's playing qb for us, than either he's playing qb for us at an early stage in his career,

or we are still unable to sign an actual big time qb 3 or 4 years down the road.

He'd qualify with that GPA and a P.O.S. ACT score of 18 or greater.... to almost any state school.

Enjoyable thread, nice information.

Don't forget Chris Harper who has a legit chance at being our qb next year.

If Harper's arm is healthy, he is a decent recruit. 4 * guy who started a few games at Oregon during his true freshman year? Plus, the dude has this entire year to learn the system and work on fundamentals.

I don't disagree with you. I just get frustrated seeing us lose recruiting battles for players in our own state. I hope CH does really want to play QB and gets his accuracy and vision of the field to par so we can have some success next year.

steve dave · October 16, 2009, 02:33:28 PM

They've already switched Harper to WR. If he's our QB it's because the primary and backup plans failed (no idea what those are)

Not a good sign when you have no idea what the primary and backup plans are. I guess we're just betting the farm on Sammy? And what's the deal with Cosh? Why the hell did we even bother signing a spread option guy? Feel kinda bad for the kid. I guess, he can just transfer to wherever his dad ends up after we can his sorry ass.

In my scouring the area for duel threat QBs, I came across this guy...

http://rivals.yahoo.com/kansasstate/football/recruiting/player-Dominique-Davis-102702

I got to wondering why we weren't in on a QB of an in-state C.C. that is having a really impressive season. So I decided to look up the guy's stats on the year. Here they are...

http://www.kjccc.org/football/09/stats/09ftscott/scombined_6.html

As you can see, he's really done nothing special. His running numbers aren't at all impressive and his passing stats are okay at best. My question is why the he!! is this guy rated at 3*. Is it just because he's on a good team?

Well, Daniel Thomas' stats weren't that great either
