Buckzip Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 There are a lot of guys out there that haven't decided that are waiting on "better offers". When those offers don't come they will be signing with UA and others. If you really think Bowden is only going to sign as many players as we currently show as commits, I think you will be surprised on NSD.

ZachTheZip Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Forgot about this article. So, greyshirts that are becoming eligible are: WR Anthony Lauro LB Jerome Lane LB Deon’Tae Moore DT Lavonne Gauthney Then there's Pittman as a transfer. Am I missing any other transfers or greyshirts? Add that to the class, and you have anywhere between 13 and 16 new scholarship players. Assuming nobody from this new class greyshirts.

Big Zip Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Saw this morning Connor Krizanic is wavering on his commit to Cincy and OU was in attendance at his basketball game this week. Connor verbaled to Cincy as a WR but played QB his senior season after Mitch Trubiski graduated with a full scholarship to UNC. Krizanic preceeded to take Mentor to the State Championships where they put up 50+ points in a losing effort. I have to believe Krizanic is now wavering because OU came calling with a QB offer. He finished the year with over 3,600 passing and 1,600 rushing and is going to be a good fit in the MAC as a QB. Would love to see him in a Zips uniform but sounds like we are going to have the unfortunate experience of playing against him.On another note Ragland the QB for Moeller (the other team in the State Championship) had no offers prior to the game and verballed to Miami a few weeks later. He is more runner than passer but he sure looked good in the State Championship.With QBs like this entering the MAC it looks like we are going to need to stock up to stop the Jordan Lynch style offenses in the near future.

ZachTheZip Posted February 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Good. OL is a need for this recruiting class.Also, hearing we might have a shot at Anthony Clark, from Buchtel HS. He's a 3* DE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zipgrad01 Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 A little update on Jamal Baggett.....this is from the Army site on rivals. He would be a great pickup late.So where is Baggett leaning?"It's kind of neck and neck right now, but I won't lie and that the University of Akron is where I'm kind of leaning towards now," he added. "However, it's going to be a rough 48-hours for me." - See more at: http://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1605128#sthash.YaRBCkvR.dpuf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
