Lol you think I would be up at 2:15 (Virginia time) introducing someone who was not my brother? I'm the oldest, there are 4 of us, we have 1 sister, anything else you can PM me.

Could you tell us the other schools that have offered? I'm curious to know exactly what we're up against. What is he looking for as far as a program, academics, etc. Is he a QB for sure, or is there a possibility he would be playing another position?

Truthfully I don't know the list and I don't want to say anything without his permission. I just know that ISU is high on the list because they were actually the 1st to send him a letter in high school! You're under a new coaching staff but still they were first. He wants to go into some sort of media field as far as school goes. He is considering playing WR for you guys because coach C guaranteed him the ball. He's a very humble young man with a great gift. Ill keep you informed though.

It is something special at ISU, This new staff is building something great, and i can tell you that all of Gene Chizik's current players will tell you that they are blessed to be playing for this team and coaching staff. Darius would enjoy the big 12 spotlight at ISU.

At least you're three-dimensional then.

Or did you mean the Cosmic Cube?

No offense, but we've seen exactly this type of stuff before that turned out to be bogus - so the folks here are a bit cautious believing what some random person says on the internet.

I did read your stuff on scout and I do believe you're legit. Regardless, I'm more excited about this kind of prospect having ISU on his radar.

Looks good. The wierd part is he is in Virginia and not one Virginia team is recruiting him. That is kind of different. Could you imagine a 5 star in Iowa and Iowa State and Iowa don't go after him. I wonder if someone knows more than we do about the kid.

I believe the Juco he is going to is in California. Could be wrong though

Phillip Bates, Austen Arnaud, Darius Reynold's?

Can you say three headed monster?

If Arnaud can prove early and often that he can be a legit starter, that frees up Bates and Reynolds to be star receivers. Unless one goes down, you don't really need to worry about keeping one on the bench to be a backup QB since you have three quality QBs to pick from at any given time. I can't imagine a time when ISU has been better set at any one position than we are (potentially) at QB right now. A lot can change if we can get Reynolds into the mix and Arnaud steps up.
