2009 Recruits

[Wahoo McDaniel]

In regards to Gimmestad, you guys found yourself a great player with tons of extra potential. He loves to play football. Pretty quick for a big guy I might add. Playing basketball this winter and does well at that as well.

Quick Update on Varmah, I did some asking around today and found out that he was offered a scholarship by the Gophers and that is what the scout.com article is about, I'm assuming but from everything I have heard from people is that he does not want to go there so I think we still have a chance

First off congrats to the staff on Jukem...I think he has all the attributes of being big time.

As far as Varmah Sonie, I have heard the exact opposite. If he was to receive an offer from Minn., he would accept it faster then I typed this note.

I don't have a subscription to that site, but I have not heard he has an offer. Supposedly, Minn. is recruiting 5-6 DB's for 3-4 spots left. If they can't fill the 3-4 spots, Varmah Sonie is plan B. Supposedly, Sonie and Bryce Mcneil (#1 recruit in Minn that is not commited to anyone yet) are really tight and if Sonie would get a Minn. offer, Mcneil would commit too.

Anyways, the power of the internet.....just what I have read and not heard first hand, and mixed rumors.

The video I was able to see on Sonie is impressive and he looks like a player that plays with a chip on his shoulder. I would excited about him.

I heard from one of his high school coaches that he was offered the scholarship, and from what i know of the situation he is hesitant to go to the gophers because how things went down with his older brother and, I'm assuming again , we may be hesitant to offer him because of how his older brother did us after he was a transfer here and then just left the team after one season. Again this is all speculation, I have no first hand knowledge of the situation, but I know Varmah has some hard feelings for the gophers because of the situation with his brother, I don't know if this is enough to keep him from turning down their offer or not though.

Sonie absolutely DOES NOT have a MN offer and would commit to MN on the spot if he got an offer. As Fifty wrote, the big catch with Sonie is his relationship with Bryce McNeal. His size is the only thing keeping bigger schools away.


Sonie is hearing from a variety of schools.

"North Dakota State, St. Cloud State, South Dakota State, Winona State, Moorehead State and a little bit from Minnesota. Moorehead offered me a partial scholarship," he said.

I got a quick question here, not really about recruiting but here goes. Who is Jamar Champ, why did he leave, and were did he go??? I read what slick has to say and it sounds like he was good.

Somerset (WI) OL/DE Bryan Witzmann (6-8, 255) is very interested in NDSU and has an official visit scheduled.

[Marlins]

My link says SOUTH DAKOTA strikes again??

It says South Dakota strikes again b/c he has an offer from USD, making him the 10th kid from Wisconsin to receive an offer from USD.
