    DB class is filling up fast. Telfair next? Jenkins thinking about re-committing?

    Not hard to see Campbell is bulking up in the trenches like many have wanted for years...

    Campbell recently said in a PC that his goal is to be bigger and more physical along the OL/DL than anyone they'd face. This is a noticeable script change vs what our last staff did. And even a change from what Campbell did at ISU - now that he has the resources and roster at his disposal...

    Terry is working on one hell of a secondary haul. Defense in general feels like it go on a bit of a run. Would be nice to get a pledge from Bourque so we can get some momentum on the offensive side.

    Michigan picked up it's first two commits of the Whittingham era this week. All the others listed were long before their coaching carousel. I bet we get 1-2 this week too. You're still bringing up the Grunk stuff? Yeah, I don't think Grunk is very good. He beat a bunch of tomato cans after our...

    The average talent composite of the last two CFP participants is 24.5. Yes, recruiting matters. But development, retention, and portal acquisition have changed everything. Again, talk about overreacting too early. Campbell has been here 3 months and people are already jumping ship. Michigan has...

    Campbell played a 3-man front at ISU and Lynn plays a traditional 4-4? You're comparing apples to oranges here. It's been noted that Campbell had trouble recruiting big bodies to ISU to play anything other than 1 DT.

    Recent predictions: 4* QB Peter Bourque (MA) 4* DB Telfair (OH) 4* DB Robinson (FL) 4* OL Slagle (IA) 4* TE Terwilliger (SD) 4* LB Alexander (OK) I think it's noteworthy that Campbell & Staff aren't just taking guys to get going - they have a board and they're sticking with it. There's been...

    Your way too early season prediction?

    9-3 or 10-2 is my high-end expectation. The schedule (as of today) is weak. The big variable is Becht at QB. He's coming off a significant shoulder injury/surgery. And I admittedly haven't watched him to know if his skills will hold up in the BIG grind. Also, do we have enough weapons on the...

    I saw some recent video of Cooper Cousins from Adam Breneman's podcast - he looks like he completely reshaped his body. Not that he just upped his calories intake, noticeably more muscle mass and athletic looking.

    Too early to panic post. Campbell & Co. have only had like 4 weekends to get kids on campus at this point. April/May/June is when we can really evaluate progress. And we're in on some big names locally and out in the Midwest. Get a top 100 QB on the board this spring and watch the trickle down...

    some believe PSU is now the favorite for TE Curry. But he has blown up in recent weeks with some other notable offers. Also, QB Will Mencl is visiting on April 2. Some regard him as the best qb in ‘27. Mouser is from AZ and had the connection. Battling big NIL players though, Oregon/Auburn/Miami.

    Sesay also got top 25 status and most are thinking he's leaning ND. He is visiting though. Maybe he's the one that gets the bag? I think they'll keep chipping away at Spell and Hiller, give it time. FWIW, Allen Trieu joined on3 and recently said we're making waves in the midwest in '27. Might...

    Eh, not yet. February is a dead period - so the new staff only had a month to get juniors on campus so far. March/April will be heavy with unofficials/practice and May/June officials. Too early to be uncomfortable just yet. With that being said, I'd guess and say end up with top 15-20 class with...

    A bunch of recent RPMs for 4* TE Cooper Terwilliger from South Dakota to PSU. He visited last month for a JR day.

    The Bourque sweeps is probably going to end up going into the summer. For what it's worth, Georgia has the #1 QB in the '28 class committed already and there are rumors he could reclassify to '27. Also sounds like academics mean a lot to Bourque & family. Just some things to factor in.
