2010: Recruiting Summary

[Mr. Burgundy]

Congrats to the staff. While being down a couple coaches, they put together what looks to be an amazing class. Ton of speed. They all seem to be HS running backs. They are great athletes. Good students, leaders, and really like to hit. The videos were terrific.

Great job to the staff for identifying the most recent additions to the Bison.

That's exactly right - somethings I brought back from last nights signing party.

1. 17 out of 22 signees were are our summer camp. Bohl said that it really makes recruiting easiler when you have them in camp to do the evaluations.
2. That a core group of them really hit it off at camp and became friends.
3. Almost all these kids have speed & can hit.
4. Olson is a natural leader - one coach said when he comes into the room he just takes it over. By the end of camp he was in the leadership role.
5. A lot of good students in the group
6. Summer camp was reason most signed early.
7. One coach feels that MN really missed on Olson & Vraa. Which is good for us.
8. The LB that UNI signed from MN was at the Bison camp and really didn't do well. Too slow.

I noticed scout.com now has Michael Allen listed as only having low interest in NDSU now.

Might want to update the header on the top list to VERBAL / SIGNED.

As of 02/02/10, the local Arizona newspaper still had him pegged as a Bison. http://varsity.evtrib.com/story/150210. No update to explain why he hasn't signed.

His father died awhile back so he needs to sort things out.

Heck, even if he didn't have stuff to work out, I can't blame anybody for waiting to commit until after they make a visit.
