Is this a PWO Jay?

[1998braves64]

I'd guess so he's an athlete. See if it works out similar road (PWO) that a fellow burro took in Grothmann.

[1998braves64]

Guess he was offered according to HCV page on Facebook.

Impressive athlete.

Loved this quote from Oscar:


I want Bison fans to know that I’m so jacked to be a part of the biggest dynasty in the state!

[KC Bison]

Doesn't he know about the suzies?

[1998braves64]

I'm sure he does Hillsboro has many suzies fans.

(I catch your purple font I think!)

Off Topic, but what happened to Skagger(sp)? I don't see him on the UND roster.

[1998braves64]

Don't recall even committing to UND? So not really sure where he ended up.

Dug a little deeper and found nothing to support my statement that he went to UND. My memory is so shitty it's remembering things that never happened.

Loved this quote from Oscar:

Oscar knows the difference between a dynasty and a “flagship”. Hes athletic and smart

HCV & Beulah playing right now on WDAY for AA championship. Oscar is #11.

HCV already beat Beulah earlier this year. Being there are only 16 teams in AA HCV has played all but 2 of them this year so far. Stanley and Hazen.

[23Bison]

Oscar does look pretty solid running the ball. I could see him in that 225 range at LB.

Beulah is going to have their hands full with him. He looks like the most physically gifted athlete on the field right now.

[1998braves64]

Yes, he's a beast.

Gavin Wright #1 who intercepted it a little bit ago would be #2 athlete IMO usually. That kid is a ball hawk. I don't think I saw a game yet this year where he didn't pick a ball off. He is their punt returner as well as WR.

[23Bison]

I almost hear his name called on every play. It’s too bad UN_ got all of the top recruits in ND. Purple

[BadlandsBison]

Oscar looks good. What really sets him apart is the aggression he plays with on the field.

I have to give the Beulah team some props. They were out-manned athletically but played tough.

Beulah cannot play from behind with that offense, but they played tough against a physically superior team IMO. Props to the camera guys who have done well with that misdirection offense.

Oscar Benson statline:

17 carries, 134 yards, 1 TD
1 rec, 32 yards, 1 TD

Wright is best all-around player for the Burros IMO. Heck, he’s even the long-snapper. His incredible blocking downfield as WR gets missed by many too. I think he is at least PWO product, if not with NDSU, then maybe UN_. Easily a DII player from what I’ve seen all year.

Lots of really good athletes on the Burro team.

Haha you've triggered me! I've watched Beulah play a few times and they regularly spring big plays with their misdirection (they can play from behind believe it or not.) They came close quite a bit today but Hillsboro is athletic enough to close the distance before guys break away.

He's a great football player. Heck, give him a shot at long snapper.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkWouldn't disagree I think he was a late bloomer growth wise heck I use to think he was just a junior high wrestler 2 years ago when he helped out with my son's youth wrestling team. Hardly recognize him and was shocked he's a senior this year.

He and Benson definitely jumped out to me. Great physicality.

[runtheoption]

Benson projects well to many different positions on defense.

On a side note in class 11B Hillsboro Central Valley beat Langdon Edmore Munich last night ending their 44 game winning streak, the last time they lost? Nov 2017 to HCV in State A championship game 16-14, Oscar was a sophomore.
