I pray we get some players capable of filling needs and not just taking scholies. There are so many of us on this board who are dying to be relevant in the MAC championship again. There does not seem to be many (if any) guys we are targeting where we end up being the only reported FBS offer, which is a good sign. While there's no doubt that we lost some nice pieces in this class with the transition, I'm kind of getting the feeling like we will be pleasantly surprised with this class all things considered. Not quite as good as it would have been, IMO, but likely better than most of the previous classes. It does seem like we are targeting a lot of DE/OLBs and DTs. Probably trying to get some personnel in for the change to a 3-4. Quote

Blue & Gold Posted January 22, 2019 Author Report Posted January 22, 2019 I’m on my phone so can’t post a link, but we got a verbal from a good looking linebacker from Humboltd State, CA named Demetrick Watts (6-0, 225). Quote

LZIp Posted January 22, 2019 Report Posted January 22, 2019 (edited) Can't copy the tweet, but Zach Gibson (QB) committed. Are you starting a new list, @Blue & Gold? Edited January 22, 2019 by LZIp Quote

UAZippers Posted January 22, 2019 Report Posted January 22, 2019 Here is a 4 and a half minute interview of Zach from June 2016. Seems to have a good head on his shoulders and was once the #1 rated QB in GA. Quote

The Johns Creek signal caller talks about how the past season went for him and what he is looking forward to seeing happen this upcoming season... 1 Quote
Blue & Gold Posted January 23, 2019 Author Report Posted January 23, 2019 I updated the initial post with our (5?) current verbal commits. Let me know if I've missed anyone. 1 1 Quote
blueandgold Posted January 23, 2019 Report Posted January 23, 2019 I really like what I see of Zach Gibson. He looked very polished in his video, so I can only hope he's gotten even better since then. Quote
LZIp Posted January 24, 2019 Report Posted January 24, 2019 So 247 debuted their transfer portal today, where I imagine they have an insider leaking the NCAA transfer portal info. Good news - I do not see any Akron players on there. I also don't see any listed as transferring to Akron. Looks like Ball St lost both their QB and RB to better schools so far. Yikes! https://247sports.com/Season/2019-Football/TransferPortal/ 1 Quote
UAZippers Posted January 25, 2019 Report Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) 3/4* rated RB. Has offers from a whole bunch of P5 schools. Edited January 25, 2019 by UAZippers 1 Quote

Him/his dad really seemed and still seem to be all about the Zips based on what I casually piece together on twitter. Glad to have him! Quote
zzx Posted January 25, 2019 Report Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) With the commits from Tyson McDonald and Jarrod Uran, that makes 5 out of 7 new commits that visited during the snowstorm weekend. Edited January 25, 2019 by zzx Quote
