Braden Smith names the schools he'll be visiting this month. Notre Dame, Shitigan, and O-hi-o State.

Warmack leader of --> #dreamteam ?

Question for everyone : are the kids from like Wyoming/Montana/Idaho (MW kind of area) worth recruiting? Do they have too raw of skill sets? Distance too far away from Manhappenin?
What got me thinking was the fact that; Snyder has been able to get plenty of Gatorade POY kind of kids (We'll see if that accolade is a strength or not in the future, but for now..) The Gatorade POY kids from those MW states might have some physical qualities that could shape them into #EMAW players but, we never know because those states never get publicity. Thoughts? I am just speculating on where to find more DITRs

I hear they can throw over those mountains over there.

Robert Castaneda, '14 OT from Round Rock, TX has committed. Offer from TTU and "interest" from Bama, LSU, aTm, & Baylor. His mom says that KSU has been on him for 3 years and the others have come on strong lately.

Already had a Texas Tech offer, and it sounds like he was starting to blow up. It also sounds like K-State has been all over this kid for quite awhile. Good job coaches . . . fire up the coffee pots you closers!!

If Gates says he's about to blow up then he's about to effing blow up!

I think there are some kids there. I posted in here about one from WY getting interest from Oregon and some others, but I know his dad would love him to play for Dickey. He's only a sophomore and he's like NFL size already.

But I have to think expending the time resource to land these few kids probably just isn't worth it and that's why they don't do it.

Really, really , really like these early commits. Areas of need being addressed.

Maybe these studs get us a Manhatter visit

We must have given up early on the 2013 class in order to lock down some kids in the 2014 class.

JR days were happening regardless. I don't think that one suggests the other. It may come as a surprise, but it's possible, and maybe even likely, that we're working on both.

I think the giant castle we're building plus the Big 12 trophy we're flaunting has something to do with this.

I'm almost scared to say that we might be cooking with a little gas on the recruiting trail. I mean, it ain't a 5 alarmer just yet, but the wick has been turned up for sure.

I think they must have put something in the water at Junior Day.

Thought I read somewhere that Snyder alluded to '14 as being the class where they noticed our recent success should really begin to pay dividends...
