Happened during the Baylor game but nice to see Rivals made it official. We turned down a Dend too I believe. I wonder when the last time we turned a quality D-end down in October was.

A common theme with all of our guys is a high GPA. I think Rhoads would rather have a smart guy he thinks he can mold than a dummy with more ability out of high school.

Where did you see that we turned down a DE and who was it? Interesting.

I think this guy is pretty underrated right now. It looks like he is a quick twitch guy you always hear about. I would compare him somewhat to Aka in that he could likely go inside or outside. He is listed at 255 and looking at that picture and that video, I don't doubt that's close.

I'm not sure if we officially turned someone down, but I did hear recently a DE wanted to commit, didn't, then committed elsewhere.

Can't recall who it was though.

Ezechukwu I believe. I suppose you may call him an OLB too but I think he was the one who wanted to commit but was told there wasn't a spot. I'm not positive who that was but he committed to Purdue right after his visit I believe. I shouldn't have stated that so matter of factly. It was kind of word of mouth type of deal if I recall.
