Thanks for starting the thread and welcome aboard to Chris!
Re: New Verbal Chris Board
Are we sure he's 215? I was just thinking if we end up getting Pierre Gee-Tucker that Board would stay at Safety to take Brantley's spot. Maybe I am off here, and you definitely are way more on the inside than I am. If Board is a legit 215, then he is a perfect OLB prospect.
ESPN lists him at 6'0" 179. http://espn.go.com/college-sports/fo...12/chris-board
Rivals lists him at 6'2" 205. http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/footbal...s-Board-144692
Scout lists him at 6'1" 205. http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73...=1&nid=6490714
I do know recruiting sites don't get updated very often for lower ranked players. Either way great addition to the class. Interesting seeing us tap into Florida. Our conference doesn't have much connection to FL, although we have seen a few transfers from that area to Youngstown and Illinois State.

215 on his visit. Freak body. Recruited to play OLB. Unreal athlete. Hoping for both he and Pierre to play OLB.

Re: New Verbal Chris Board
This has been an awesome year for LB recruiting (and the front 7 altogether). Sounds very positive for Mr. Board.

Glad it worked out. Time to get on BOARD! Welcome Chris to the Bison family!
I'm guessing the #31 recruit out of the state of Florida gets a couple more scholorship offers. I think he was #31 out of "Central Florida area" which is the area around Orlando (still no small accomplishment). I could be wrong on that ranking but according to Gabe's post in the recruiting thread its the latter. I spent a couple years in Florida out of college and the #31 recruit is getting more attention than NDSU, Jacksonvill and Bethune Cookman.
