Joe Dunn's Recruiting Show Last Night

[zff]

I listened to the annual Football Recruting show Joe Dunn does on 1350 last night. The whole first hour was OSU stuff. Blah Blah Blah. At the end they asked the guy from bucknuts.com about Akron's class. He said Adam Bice was the steal of Ohio this year. Joe mention a couple of the other kids and he said they were good pickups but he could not say enough good things about Bice.The whole second hour was about Akron. J.D. came on and talked about the positions they were looking at for this years class. He was asked about a JUCO QB and said they really thought about it but in the end they did not want to disrupt the locker room. He also said after last weekend they had three decommits but after talking to the kids they are back on board. They are only waiting on an answer from one player and just trying to balance the verbal commits. J.D. did say if they get the one they are waiting on it will make the class awesome but if not they have a pretty good backup plan. (I think it is a CB and hopefully 4 star Josh Pleasent from Hargrave)Mike Rasor was also on and said some really good things. He did mention about CJ leaving and it was not touched by Dunn. Mike did a really nice job on the radio.Jordan Miller the QB from New Philly was also on the show. He said he is really looking forward to coming to Akron and will get he as soon as he can in the summer. He also mentioned CJ leaving and that he was told he might have a chance to play this year. He sounds like a very bright young man.Overall the show was pretty good. But there was really no new infomation that has no been talked about on here or Rasor Blog. Joe did mentioned that Bowser and Gardner have become friends and that Bowser called Gardner and told him not to visit Washington State but instead come to Akron with him. So maybe Gardner was a decommit but is now back on board. I think we could see the two new JUCO guys in the starting lineup.

was able to listen to the last first hour interview and the jd interview. the bucknuts guys was asked about most of the big ohio verbals and on top of the bice comments said that fleming was in his top 20 for the state and could grow into a de. schuler was one of the hardest hitters in the state and pachuta is at a big ten/osu level. also said glimer was a sleeper. the jd interview was very possitive but he has to be. loved the fact that he said he went outside and watched them tear down the dorms! just a guess but the loi he could be waiting on: avery, pleasent, thompson, or torrence.

I just saw on Rivals that he's committed to Can't. Ouch. He's a 4-star DB! http://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/viewp...sp?pr_key=71518Oh, well. I'm not terribly surprised by this because the only three D-1 schools that offered him (that's odd enough right there, isn't it?) were Akron, Toledo and Can't. However, in his Rivals interview he said that he's not much of a city boy and so didn't feel very comfortable on Toledo's urban campus. When I read that I felt that sentiment pretty much eliminated Akron from contention right there. Can't was the only rural school that offered him.

a nice pick up for Can't. they have done a nice job getting db's drafted in the past few years. i really haven't heard anything about the last scholly so i was just guessing. anybody have an idea of who we're looking at? maybe britt? again just shot in the dark

It looks like Josh may be having second thoughts. He might end up with Ole Miss......Rivals now has him as a soft verbal Source
