Blue & Gold

Neither Shammah, nor either of the Mahaffey brothers had strong games vs. Murray St. Yeah, we still put up 100 points but our defense is concerning. And Murray St. looked very good.

KSU to eliminate 19 undergrad majors. Due to lack of conferring degrees (<5) over a 3-year window. A couple of these programs should have never been majors to begin with, but the vast majority of these are serious areas of study.

By now I guess it's safe to say that neither Yeboa Cobbold nor Josiah Collins are going to sign? @catdaddyp

247 reported offers from BUGS, Buffalo, Charlotte, Indiana, KSUcks, Kentucky, Maryland, Miami (FL), Michigan State, Missouri, Pitt, Purdue, Sacramento State, Toledo, UAB, UCF, West Virginia, and YSU.

Hmm. Tulane is 6-2 with wins over Samford, Texas State, Louisiana, and Boston College. They did, however, get run off the court by New Orleans (85-63), so that has to rub the Tulane alumni the wrong way.

If you'd like to watch future Zips QB Semaj Beals in the PA 5-A (2nd largest division) state title game, here is a link to the NFHS Network for online streaming. Unfortunately it does require a monthly subscription for $11.99. So if you watch Semaj don't forget to cancel afterwards!

Semaj and Jaborree both stacked scholarship offers but many "weren't committable." But JoeMo's extremely happy with both, obviously. I mentioned JoeMo targeting a TP or JUCO QB for next season to bring us to 4 QB (Raggow the only QB on the current roster w/ any PT experience). Article also talks about Donovan Moorhead & that JoeMo did in fact offer him, but they were clear early on there'd be a lot less controversy/drama if he went & played somewhere else other than for his dad. The linebacker we signed out of Pickerington North, Dante Curtis, was D-1 Ohio Central Region defensive POY. the DB we signed out of VASJ, Savion Lewis, was the D-3 Ohio Lakes Region defensive POY.

Great article by Michael Beaven on our recruiting class. Insight into how we signed Semaj & mentions JoeMo aiming to bring in a TP or JUCO QB to compete for the starting job next season.

Smallish crowd tonight

That's 5 of our 10 verbal commitments.

I watched the BUGS vs. K-State and the EMU vs. Cincy games yesterday & both MAC teams controlled the action from tip to final buzzer. On the road. Cincy & K-State's fans were getting excited when each respective team would be trying to claw back into the game, but neither game was particularly close - especially BUGS. BUGS & EMU are tough down low & compliment that with 3-point shooting. Add KSUck's Gillespie to the mix & Amani's gotta bring his A-game on a regular basis in the MAC 👀👀

Daunte Curtis is a new name No, he's not. My bad.

Got our first!

Kent's kicking our @$$ on twitter this morning. So far they've got 16 of these posts. We have zero.

Bad day for this to happen as tomorrow is signing day. I'm still seeing recruits tweeting that they'll be signing with OU tomorrow. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

Wait... we're still going to be ineligible next year?

I thought he was done anyway so I'm not even upset 😂

How we fare with our Big East brethren #8 UConn #21 Butler #22 St. John's #40 Akron #49 Seton Hall #53 Villanova #114 Xavier #118 Creighton #121 Georgetown #124 Providence #168 Marquette #178 DePaul

So we've got a verbal from a QB with offers from Syracuse, Alabama, Boston College, Colorado, Duke, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Nebraska, Penn State, Pitt, Rutgers, Temple, UCONN, USC, Virginia Tech, and West Virginia among others... and a verbal from a WR with offers from Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Miami, Mississippi State, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Penn State, Pitt, Purdue, USF, Texas A&M, and West Virginia among others... 🧐
