Pierre Aka 6-4/255
Collin Bevins, 6-5/230
Ishmail Hayes 6-6/245 (juco)
Cory Morrissey 6-4/245 (juco)

Wasn't Mitchell Meyers originally listed as a DE? Rivals now has him as a DT (6-4, 241 with a 4.63 40, 4.26 shuttle, 35 inch vertical. Geez. . . .)

Could be one or two of the above listed wind up interior DL, too. We appear to be doing damn well with the DL.

End of November, and we're pretty close to finishing off the class, commitment numbers-wise (hasn't CPR said we'll sign about 20). Not including December signees, I guess.

Sounds like Morrissey could be placed with last year's class because he qualified. Sounds like a decent hard working player. Almost reminds me of a Jake Knott like attitude. Good speed and played RB in HS. I like hard working over achieving individuals with decent size and physical skills. Nice pickup.

You mean sorta like......beating the #2 team in the country?

Yes, that's your reality check calling!

So is it true Oregon flew out to watch him? Impressive if true...either way I'm happy we got him!!!

Interesting thing about Shittu. His only visit thus far was to A&M when they started their newest Aggie Tradition of blowing second halves (to Okie State).

Welcome to the Cyclone Family!!

Welcome Cory! Loved this kids tape, he seems to be the type of guy who Rhoads will absolutely get the maximum out of. Loving the look of this class so far!

Great news. The more DL's the better.

Just spoke to Cory Morrissey. He'll be on campus during 2nd semester & will participate in spring ball. #Cyclones Q&A coming soon.

Who said he was passed on?

Good to hear he will be at ISU for Spring ball. Hopefully he can have 1.5 years to learn the Dline, and then be in the mix for major PT as a RS Soph.
