I seriously don't know. I only noticed it a few days ago when I was looking at attrition rates and found it really interesting. Then, like an idiot, I completely forgot about him not being on the roster when I posted 6/20 leaving the 2008 class. I feel like an idiot. I am glad bh reminded us.

So, Prevlitz is going to be a senior. We soon will need a P and a K, you think?

Love the 2010 class though. Hope they all stick around like the 09 class, then we will be cooking with gas.

He left after the season 2 years ago I believe. May have been during the season but I know he wasn't with the team last season. Had a little trouble with teammates is the reason he left.

Wasn't he the one posting on various message boards about his verbals and recruitment as they were happening (started at UND, came here, etc.)? If so, I can't say that the above is much of a shock.

I'm not sure if that was him or not. With the interweb stuff like that happens though so it wouldn't suprise me I guess. Don't know if that would have had an effect on his relationship with his teammates or not but I doubt it. Who knows.

Bohl promised this year he would bring in a high level kicker so we will see what happens. Don't think the walk on route has worked to well in the past.

Since we don't see much in the offer list or in the way of updates...... maybe Bohl had a secret tryout with all the current players and will "promote" from within and personally guide the development of a player currently on the roster to be the next kicker or punter........

Yep, that was him. I am pretty sure he went to St. Olaf, but don't quote me on that.

I couldn't resist the opportunity to quote this. :rofl:

Yup, Jason Obarski was the most active poster on the MinnesotaPreps.com football forum while he was being recruited. He often shared his thoughts about his about his own recruitment and his expert analysis of a bunch of other Twin Cities area recruits. :D

A little write up on Travis Beck.

Just for fun, click this link to see Beck in a Munich-Starkweather basketball game against Cando. Travis is #24 in white.

Cliff's notes:

--at the :59 mark he leaves a defender in the dust with a nice behind the back dribble.

--at the 1:51 mark he makes a nice baseline drive to his left for a layup.

--at the 2:42 mark he gets up in the air fairly high to make a nice block but get's called for goaltending (bad call).

--at the 3:08 mark hits a nice looking 3 pointer from the right wing.

--at 4:54 he drives into the lane and makes an impressive adjustment to his shot to avoid a block a scores.

--and, finally, at 5:49 a nice turn around jumper.

Another verbal
