RECRUITING: Three portal targets in Ames this weekend

[Aclone]

I didn't realize there was a "University of Sioux Falls" until now.

Isn’t that where U of Washington’s coach attended?

Any OL recruits or transfers on the radar?

The success of this team will depend almost entirely on the OL improvement next year. Who are we going after for transfers on the OL?

I’m pretty sure the key to OL improvement is going to come from hiring the right OL coach, rather than a bunch of transfers.

Not least, because we don’t seem to be “going after” anyone right now.

It would be pretty sweet if we landed all three of them.

Agree. Selig would mean solidifying the Mike spot, and Durfee would be (apparently) a relatively high upside guy with a little more seasoning and maturity…at a spot that looks a bit on the green side right now.

Is he switching sports to kayaking?

This. We need OL help in a bad way.

D2 WR visited a week ago. I didn't see anything on here (but maybe premium boards):

Hope we set the bar high & made a great impression. Demand is growing for him, for sure:

If he has been offerred by ISU, Iowa, Houston, and Oklahoma St - this would be a pretty big get. I hope we can reeel him in. Our WR room needs competition badly. Hutchinson is gone, Noel is wildly inconsistent and doesn't break many tackles, we need improvement from that group. Having Lazard do so well in the league has to be a selling point.

I’m looking forward to watching Greg Gaines III play!

Grad transfer LB from Michigan committed?

Kids is a stud. I have seen him play a few times (my daughter goes to the same D2 school). Great route runner and got open at will at that level. Not a burner, but has good size and seemed to catch everything remotely in his vicinity. QB throwing to him wasn't great. Would fill the Sean Shaw roll and very likely an upgrade.

From Western Michigan committed to Minny-haha.

In other words, he’s off our board.
