Not sure how hard NDSU was after this guy.

But Princeton QB Phillip Klaphake committed to St. Cloud St.




Several schools showed Klaphake interest including North Dakota State, Northern Iowa, Albany (NY), several Ivy League schools, Florida International, and others but the Princeton quarterback decided to stay close to home.

"Phillip has verbally committed to play football at St. Cloud State," said his father Glenn Klaphake. "Phillip was recruited at all levels of college football over the course of the last year and received several scholarship offers before committing to SCSU."

Princeton isn't a football hotbed, and NDSU has 5 QB's higher that have been contacted.

not really worried about princeton football.

SONIE would be a HUGE get!!

And we probs won't recruit out of the area. Apparently Mont. St. got a verbal from the qb of the 5A state champ out of Texas this weekend.

That cuts both ways. Illinois State got NDSUs #1 WR recruit, Ben Erickson and there are likely others. Probably a wash.

That is to bad looks like we lost him because of location and the redbirds are going to run the spread. Well good luck to him and I hope his college career works out for the best. I also hope we get to pound the crap out of his team for years to come.:D :D :D He will at least get to see what he could have been a part of when he comes to the dome.

Thanks for the info rutlandbison. Any word on WR's or RB's on campus this weekend? It would be nice to get some incoming freshmen with good speed in these areas.
