Not sure why NDSU hasn't offered him, he's gonna be massive with that frame.

And, I can only imagine his test score!

Aiden Wunderlich's HUDL video is hilarious. He is like, "My job is not finished until you are on the ground."

I'd be disappointed as heck if Polasek and Co. didn't offer him (especially a "local" kid) Please don't pull an Entz and not offer......ala Bo Belquist.

Wunderlich was on Dom's show and said Polasek watched him work out and he'll be attending a junior day event at NDSU. Kid also said the Gophers were at his school to work him out.

You want to know why? Because if we offer, everyone and their mom is on the kid from day one. There are alot of politics in these things. Maybe even an under the radar offer. Kids get educated. Our offers are different. Oh....NDSU offered? Maybe we should get up there and work him out.....

All part of recruiting. Lot of examples of it going both ways.

This is true. A coaching friend was telling me a story about a kid on his 7v7 team. He was from a small town in Northern Indiana and not in anyone's radar. This coach knew he was good so he was helping to promote him to schools. Iowa finally visited and offered. Within days, he suddenly had offers from several other D1 schools. He ended up at Notre Dame and was a 6th year senior captain on the defense last night. Jack Kizer. He may have ended up D2/D3 if that coach hadn't finally convinced Iowa to visit.
