At this point I don't follow recruiting; I know KSU can't land any of the top tier guys, and the staff generally does very well with the kids that they do sign (though not everyone.) I didn't grow up in Kansas so maybe one of you who did could fill me in but the only thing that seems frustrating is why the top talent in Wichita doesn't seem to have any desire to stay in state.
Because Oklahoma is right there.

For some reason fell better after reading Combs twitter tonight, retweets every thing but seemed most original tweets about recruitment were about us. :dunno:

Melting down over not getting a 210lb juco LB is pretty lame
Melting down because said LB chose ku is really lame
Reading kuzacker's self deprecating bullshit is slightly entertaining
Reading MIR's psuedo-psychosis bullshit is unbearable

Why anyone gives a crap about some undersized juco LB that is like 8th on our wishlist and whose offer was probably contingent on Combs is beyond me.  We return Walker, Slaughter redshirted, Truman looks good, Moore, we're in the mix for Ramirez and Longino, have 3 LB commits, and I don't know greyshirts.  Oh yeah, only 2 are on the field for 80% of the snaps. 


FYI, this DB visited Sat and will commit.

Beems is back, FSD is back, now we need UW back.  Each fill a different niche, all pieces to my goEMAW experience. :D

Per Cassidy, Combs to decide on the 19th, has 50 offers, and his final 4 is KState, ku, wash st, Hou.

If we lose out to any of those programs, please melt down.  For the first time in 5 years DT isnt a position of desperation, so Im not overly concerned one way or the other.

I will meltdown hard if we don't beat out those programs.

Is the staff targeting a RB this year? With Hubert gone soon and Robinson and Rose next on the depth chart, seems like it would be nice to add youth to the depth chart.

Just saw these 2 ATH's:

http://rivals.yahoo.com/kansasstate/football/recruiting/player-Corey-Lawrence-125621

Since ATH means they could play one of a few positions, anyone got info on to where they would be slated if they signed?

Staff is high of Jarvis Leverett, Bill is on recorder saying he is one play on the scout team that impressed him.

I think when it is all said and done we will recall the 2011 class of Bill best class of incoming freshmen.

A few observations-  MIR is really struggling with his newly found tuckhood.  Dude, just let it happen.  It's the light at the end of the tunnel, and we all feel really good (right now) on this side.  Kinda sad that DMac hasn't done more to this point.  Guess there's no shame in playing behind Hubes and Pease though.  And last-  if you've ever followed Bill's recruiting before, you know to not get too worked about things.  It's not often flashy but the results have been very solid, outside of 04/05.  Reall surprised nobody has thrown the outlier tag on those years yet.

By virtue of the fact that you opened and posted in the "Football Recruiting Thread," you do, in fact, follow recruiting.

Not really sure what you are doing here, Britz, Burton and Leverett were 2012 (as was Hood).  Everyone else you listed was a 2011 grayshirt, so I'm not sure if you ment to say 2012 class and rolled those guys into it.  Statements like this are difficult to make because of our gray-shirting practice.

If you want to go purely off what year we got them to commit, then the 2011 HS class was a pretty good haul with future potential with: Dante Barnett, Marquel Bryant
Morgan Burns, Glenn Gronkowski, Tyler Lockett, Mike Moore, Daniel Sams, Boston Stiverson, and Cody Whitehair.

If you want to go off who is on the 2012 roster as a true freshman, then the 2012 true freshman group has a lot of future potential with:  Dante Barnett, Travis Britz, Morgan Burns, Deante Burton, Glenn Gronkowski, Demonte Hood, Jarvis Leverett, and Mike Moore.

I will say this...

If this staff gets Delva, Combs, Hardison, and Nash I'll say it was an amazing class.  That is TREMENDOUS depth to add to the line.

If they all qualify, of course.

Not trying to count twice, just saying you have to pick one or the other.
