No this is not a grayshirt. A Grayshirt is a player that signs his LOI in February like the other players, but he doesn't report to the team in the fall like the others and delays fulltime enrollment in school until the spring semester.Quote:

Found some more info on Julius Shelby.

Haven't been able to find stats from his senior year, but had 30 catches for 500 yards and 3 TDs his junior year and he runs s 4.55 40. His stats are that great bc he plays along side the #1 WR in the nation and #2 player in nation Kyle Prater who is going to USC.
how many shirts are there? :eek:Quote:

If you get hurt late in your senior year of high school, you can delay enrollment and become a greyshirt while you rehab. That preserves your year of eligibility in case you get hurt sometime in college.Quote:

He has also seen attention from North Dakota, North Dakota State and Southern Utah. According to North Dakota, they are waiting to hear from Desert Pines Keorris Berry whom they have as a top target and North Dakota State is recruiting him as a full back.

I am guessing that is a typo as NDSU is the school all over Keorris Berry at LB. I still find it hard to believe that NDSU and UND can somehow be on the same kid from the Desert SW.
Easy their coaches (und) are on this board - LakesBison is really coach Mussman!Quote:

They aren't referring to Berry being recruited as a fullback, but instead Jake Pearce who both NDSU and UND are recruiting.Quote:

Here is a kid I have been REALLY hoping we go after. I attached a few articles. If you aren't on rivals...you should be. Basically this kid is going unrecruited due to his size. Read the article. I agree, you can't teach heart and this kid has it. Heavyweight State Champ as a freshman and sophomore? In a big wrestling state? How about being a NATIONAL CHAMPION...and he won it in FARGO!!! This is a kid who is undersized, but in one of those articles that is pushing 2 years old, he is 260 pounds. Kids get to our level by being 2 inches too short. Joe Mays was a good example. I have heard this kid is a real stud full back and DT. I think we go after this kid. Nobody is on him right now, and I am not saying just because rivals does not have him listed. I love some of his comments in the last article. You can tell he has heart and being that good of a wrestler would really help his potential lack of size.

http://footballrecruiting.rivals.com...asp?CID=954249
The 6-foot, 260 pound Coleman is arguably the top returning football player in Class A, but the thing that has hurt him this spring is Division I coaches have questioned if has the size to play defensive tackle at the next level.
Sean Callahan
Omaha North's Ron Coleman will defend his national title in wrestling this July in Fargo, ND.
Coleman is still waiting for his first scholarship offer, and he's looking forward to proving himself this summer at some different football camps around the nation.
"Basically I just want a chance," Coleman said. "Everybody is saying 'he's not quite 6-foot,' and 'he's small.' But I'll tell you what, you put me against your 6-7 so called top recruits, and you'll see what's going to happen. I am getting underrated right now because of my height, but I say height can't measure heart and I'm just going to go out there and do what I can do."
Coleman has shown what type of heart he has over the last three years on both the football field and the wrestling mat.
As a wrestler, Coleman captured the 215 pound weight class state titles as both a freshman and sophomore and he took home the heavyweight state championship this past year. On a national level, Coleman won the national championship in the 215 pound weight class for all sophomores last July in Virginia and he'll compete in the national heavyweight division in Fargo, N.D. this upcoming July.
"When I go to this tournament, I'm going to be in the best shape of my life," Coleman said. "Come August, it's going to be a nice sight to see."
Gotta think Coleman, the 6'0 260 lb championship wrestler would have some serious leverage on the line. I hope NDSU goes after him too.
We can cross QB Jordan Rodgers off the list. He has signed his LOI to attend Vanderbilt and will enroll in a few weeks.
Not surprised we didn't get him...can't imagine NDSU being high on his listQuote:

Looks like he likes to run between the tackles out of the "I" formation. Tough runner. Good patience. Decent speed, with good burst. Good hands. (If this is the right guy.) It says he's a 16 year old senior.????

why the recent push in AZ? I'd take an equally rated player from WI, MN or IL any day over AZ or TX.
I thought I read something about a NDSU connection in AZ.Quote:

Do you guys have any idea of how many spots we have still open? I think we have about 18 verbals so far? That would include Marcus Williams? 23 spots available? Maybe more as a couple kids are partial offers. Who are your favorites to become Bison?
I think you are correct on the 18 since Williams has to be included on this years list.Quote:

I also find it interesting how the staff have clustered recruits at certain positions the past couple of years when there is obviously a lot of talent at one spot or two. Last year it was DL, this year OL appears to be the position of choice. I think being dominated on both sides of the ball by UNI the first year in the MVFC may have influenced that.
Yeah, I love the fact we have a massive offensive line of the future in this class. Some good kids in there. I see on Rivals that Dillon Forbes and Anderson have already signed (Jucos). That is a good sign.
down south is where we need to get some athleticism. up here, you're just not going to get a lot of athletic talentQuote:

I probably missed something along the way, but why would Marcus Williams have to be listed among this years class. He is listed in this years program as a FR DB from Minnetonka. Didn't he receive a scholarship this year? Just asking.
He is not on scholarship these year. He may be considered a Grayshirt. Here is what was reported by Hallstrom.Quote:

He was an "academic situation" coming to NDSU in the fall but word is he's making progress and expects to be eligible after spring semester. He is projected at DB, and I'd expect him to start fall camp in the cornerback group, then possibly get a look at safety as he learns the defense. If you add him into the commitments, that's a group of 19 newcomers in the fall."
Tony, is Michael Allen, RB from Chandler, AZ worth adding to the offer list? Rivals says he was offered and I think either Hallstrom or Kolpack confirmed it on the media blog.Quote:

There are a few others listed as well by Rivals as having offers from NDSU:
Also, Fred Blow, CB from Humble, TX.
http://rivals.yahoo.com/minnesotapre...red-Blow-94454
Lechein Neblett, WR, Madison, WI
http://rivals.yahoo.com/minnesotapre...Neblett-104740
I'm trying to figure out what positions are still being recruited. Was Beck (from Langdon) recruited as a safety or an OLB?
id say mainly secondary/LB/WRQuote:

We might not end up with these guys, but the positions are what I'm curious about. Which spot above isn't going to get one?
