In addition to his early scholarship offer from the Bison, Horne has garnered recruiting interest from Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Tennessee, Stanford, UCLA and Nebraska.

Daaaaaaaaaaaammmnnn. Glad to see we're looking at some very good guys early on but that's an impressive list.

Classic. That is exactly what SDSU and UND said last year, now they are both opening saying how they have to change their ways (to keep up with NDSU). Both coaches have said that in the media.

Coach Polasek can flat out recruit.

He can coach. RBs have been solid since he took over. I'm thinking he can turn our special teams around.

We need to do whatever it takes to keep him on OUR sidelines. I have been very impressed in every aspect of his coaching since he started.

If you talk one time with Palasek, you quickly realize how good he is in a livingroom. He is SO PASSIONATE. He can get you motivated pretty quick and is not scared to make sure you know who is boss on the practice field. He has a bright future. His stable of running backs is nuts.

Did you notice in the article the kid said he was calling Polasek once a week? Maybe that's normal practice, but that seems like a pretty big deal to me. He also stated he is doing that because Polasek can't call him. To me, that is the most telling part of the article. It is obvious he is interested in playing in Madison, but it might be one of those things where it's NDSU or Madison at the end of the day.

The only thing that concerns me is his 4.82 at his size. His lifting numbers were GREAT, so that could just be over training with weights and not enough speed training.

Doesn't matter how fast you are if you are just running over the top of guys.
