Should be really good at that test they make potential draft picks take… what’s that thing called again?

Brody Schaffer, Winneconne, Wi. WR/S. Glad NDSU offered, seems like he is flying under the radar but maybe not for long.
Darn it. He reminds me a lot of another central Wisconsin kid that flew under the radar, Jared Abbrederis. I think he walked on at Wisconsin and ended up their all-time receptions leader.
Schaffer is a really similar player/athlete but I think the cat is out of the bag on him now.
I was mistaken on the Washington State offer, that went to a big OL from Janesville the Bison had previously offered.

Also has Northern Iowa, Dartmouth offers.
Slower start for the home squad compared to the other two schools… hoping to see it pick up soon.
This is part of the issue I think... we're waiting until camp to offer some of these kids... and they're already committing to other schools. We'll be fine, I'm just curious if our strategy will change in the future... but also will be a smaller class. I'm just anxious for more recruits :)
Some Wisconsin prospects:
