My fault again, it appears I am doing my best to confuse myself and others....I was trying to help and confused everyone. Long story short, it sucks we lost him to anyone....but this lineman from Michigan looks fantastic. Plus, I love that he is joining his team mate to come to Fargo. I hope they love it.
Ya, what the hell were you thinking? j/kQuote:

Xerxes Griffin, 6'2 290 on Rivals. Not much else on him that I could find.
All of the suspense, if there is any left, will be cleared up within 24 hours.
Then what in the hell will we do until late August?Quote:

It appears this is what will roll through the fax machine tomorrow at the BSA. Pleasant surprise with late addition of Landingham from Michigan -- very strong prep credentials such as being named to the Detroit Free Press "All State Dream Team Offense." He's a teammate of Bobby Miller at Muskegon, so I imagine that had some impact on his decision. Muskegon has a great program winning the D-II state championship last year.
Bohl said NDSU hit the southern California JC's hard and I wasn't sure what he meant. He must have meant Griffin, who was eighth on his team in tackles with 25, but tied for the team lead in tackles for lost yardage with 5.5. He also led the team with three fumble recoveries and two forced fumbles. The kid must be able to hit.
