Plus, their "individual want/need" was handled when our coaches have been out on the road for the past month and they stop and meet with the player/family/coach. Or, the dozens of texts and phone calls from the past 4 months. These aren't players that have just nilly/willy been chosen to come up quick for a visit. The coaching staff has been focusing on these players for 4 + months.
I would probably watch the text messages....

Re: 2010: Recruiting Summary
Final point, then time for the hoops game, but I think we should be pretty happy/thankful for our summer camp. We have the opportunity to actually see these kids work. See how they compete against other kids at their position, see them move, etc. Always better to determine them in person vs film. A campus visit in January doesn't show you much more than how they look in their letterman's coat. Plus, it is -21 degrees at that time. I am glad we are doing all of this work early.

A guy on SS.com finally has it figure out. UND plays in a crappy conference without an autobid to the playoffs. The elephant in the room in the eyes of the recruit. NDSU isn't going to win every battle, but they win most in the region for sure. Nobody can dispute that argument.
Here is to hoping Zach Vraa is in this class. He would be the icing on the cake for me. He is a difference maker at the WR spot. Like has been mentioned by our staff and also by alot of people on this board, he reminds people of Heck. His hands are amazing. Vraa and Gebhart from Sioux Falls would be an absolutely nuts WR class for the Bison. (Sidenote: Gebhart is a classic case of why NDSU's "strategy" of getting these kids on campus early, seeing them, and getting their verbal early is the way to go). SDSU is now finally bringing in 40 kids in 4 different waves this month. I just don't see how that is showing the individual love that some of these kids want/need.
Of course SDSU fans are selling eachother on the fact that they don't have enough staff to recruit during the year, got into the playoffs and now are starting to get kids in. You can't tell me they didn't want Gebhart, the #1 ranked rivals WR in our zone. Kid was in their backyard and is a Bison. Can't wait for him.
If SDSU fans are selling each other that they don't have a full staff to recruit with, that is B.S., another Florida St. example here, but they have a Top 10 National class with 5 coaches recruiting, the head coach interviewing and hiring his staff, and there was bowl game prep and practice in there as well.

wow, you sdsu fans are clowns...all 4 of you
Re: 2010: Recruiting Summary
I had to finally register and post after browsing for the past several years. I enjoy the site and much of the usefull information.
I couldn't agree more with Burgundy, SDBison and others on the recruiting front. If the transition to DI has shown SDSU anything, it is to mirror the Bison in recruiting. You guys have blown our doors off and are the litmus test for recruiting in the midwest, if not the nation. I have been extremely envious of each and every class you have been able to sign since the transition. I mean let's be honest, it is a miracle we have beat you juggernauts three in a row and 4 out of the last 5. WOW, where do we get off doing that to the Bison. Don't we know about you're D2 tradition? The temerity of the Jacks just blows me away. I mean, how many D2 championships do you all have? Where does the FCS committee get off not automatically putting you into the playoffs every year? Utterly ridiculous. After all, NDSU is in Fargo (a city without rival), has gold plated toilets and reams of velvet for players to wipe their backsides.
Each night before I lay my head down, I pray that we can come up to the level of NDSU in recruiting. Until that unimaginable day happens, I will have to relegate myself to the shallow victory of actually winning on the field with sub-Bison players. But I know it is only a matter of time before tradition and facilities reasserts its preeminence. I am patiently waiting for Army to do the same.
