Aaron Wimberly now has visit scheduled for Boise State on 12-7

**State43** · 12-13-2012, 09:13 AM

Could you imagine if White had Wimberly's build? Watching him hit the holes this season, if he was about 20-30lbs heavier and a couple inches taller, he would be the best back in the conference. When he was out, it was a huge hit to the team. I like Shontrelle, but he seemed hesitant all season to hit the gaps at full speed. That combined with our awful run blocking was brutal.

CPR should have a RB competition every week this year. He should then pick the starter during warmups. Why not? They appear to be close in ability to gain yards. Maybe SR will have most rushing yards in the end.

Ive heard that he has had such incredible interest in KSU that there was no point in offering. The only other school I could see stepping into the picture would have been Alabama (they called IWCC regarding Jake in case AJ McCarron went pro, but he is returning).

Aside from having depth next season and the year after when those seniors graduate, maybe the staff thinks he's better than what we have...?

A good program tries to recruit better players than what they already have.

wimberly seems like a guy that could play a lot of positions. RB, slot, KR/PR even move to DB if needed

I thought he was quoted saying if ISU had offered, he would have committed here but he never received an offer. there was a big deal about this a couple months back.

Do you think SJ was hesitant at all this year? I thought he was a little bit but maybe that's just me.

Wimberly is at a visit to TCU right now... Said its between Iowa State, Boise St, and TCU...

**cyhawkdmb** · 12-13-2012, 10:37 AM

And Coe isnt there.... But they said he commited to ISU

**State43** · 12-13-2012, 10:40 AM

Bummer, let's hope Aaron sticks with the clones. If he is good enough to beat out the others, so be it, would just mean we have a better running back in the backfield.

**cyhawkdmb** · 12-13-2012, 10:40 AM

Waters annouced he is going to K-State..

**cyhawkdmb** · 12-13-2012, 10:52 AM

K State got another guy... not sure who he is...

**cyhawkdmb** · 12-13-2012, 11:05 AM

DAMN!! K-State got Nash a Defensive End, a guy named Green, and Waters...

They brought in WImberley because he's a playmaker. That's my opinion. If you need him at RB, he can play there. If we have enough there, he can help outside. I don't think he redshirts anyway so you got a year of depth when you could have taken another HS kid if you just wanted depth. I would guess we will be looking for 2 RBs next year though.
