2024 Recruiting Thread

the kid might get early playing time at Bama.  Not a bad place to groom for the NFL

I hope he waits to see what the Husker offense looks like and how the QB performs there.
If the offense really performs and they win 6 or 7 games, I think UNL has a chance to land him.

be tough for a new offense to perform real well in the Big Ten, but........

Bama just went after freaking Tyler Buchner (who sucks) bc their QB room was such hot garbage....

This kid would start at Bama this year if he could skip his senior year of high school.....

5* WR Ryan Wingo (6'2, 205) from Missouri - the #22 player overall and #5 WR in the nation in the 247Composite - schedules an official visit to Michigan. Bit of a surprise, didn't know Michigan was even in the top 5. He's also taking OVs to Texas, Georgia, Missouri, and Tennessee.

Tennessee is the presumed leader, Missouri the home state school that has a track record of getting 5* in-state kids to stay home for some weird ass reason...

Michigan adds 3* C Jake Guarnera (6’4, 290) from the state of Florida. 

Guarnera was Sheronne Moore’s #1 center on the board and is the 5th OL commit for Michigan’s 2024 class.

They’ll be taking 6, possibly even 7 OLs if a blue chipper decides they want it. Keep stacking the los. I’m all for that.

hopefully it was Warren Buffet's group and they are moving it to Nebraska

Hopefully helps MSU land in state 4* Dylan Mesman.  Granted he doesn't have a commitable UM offer.  I think Auburn, Kentucky, Miami and Minnesota are his other contenders

looks like he just committed to Louisville. Looks like Louisville continues to have their NIL bag game on point. Won't say it's a huge blow to Mel, maybe a glancing one? Kid is an in-stater and both parents are MSU grads and he picks....Louisville?

Nebraska lands ATH Keelan Smith, son of legendary pass rusher Neil Smith

Neil Smith is revving engines as the Kansas Motor Speedway's NASCAR grand marshal on Sunday, his alma mater pushed the recruitment of three-star athlete Keelan Smith across the finish line.

Keelan Smith, a "hybrid" receiver who can play running back or tight end, committed to Nebraska and coach Matt Rhule on Friday. The Missouri native had 11 touchdowns as a junior last season and is expected to remain in the Class of 2024 rather than reclassify. At 6-3, 209, he's viewed as a prospect at outside linebacker in addition to the offensive role.

Neil Smith's college teammate, Danny Noonan, also has a son in the Huskers' 2024 recruiting class: defensive end Maverick Noonan. Danny Noonan was the No. 12 pick in the 1987 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys.

3* WR Channing Goodwin (6'1, 180) of North Carolina commits to Michigan. Goodwin is the son of former Michigan OL Jonathan Goodwin and the high school teammate of  5* Michigan QB commit Jadyn Davis. Goodwin is ranked in the 247Composite as the #511 player overall, the #72 WR, and the #15 player in North Carolina. 247's own rankings are much higher on him, they rate him as the #241 player overall, #38 WR, and #7 player in North Carolina.

That's a good pickup for booger.

That's a good pickup for booger.

yeah, I think he's got a real shot to rise up in the composite rankings. I do think his teammate WR Jordan Shipp might be better though. Shipp is rated as a 4* in the composite and as the #407 player overall and #13 player in North Carolina. I think he's a UNC legacy, has lot of ties there- so they are up there- and Georgia is coming after him strong right now- so he might be a tough pull. 

Doesn't hurt Jeem that he's got his HS QB and his running mate at WR already in the fold. Shipp is too close to call but Jeem has a real good shot in that one.

It will be interesting to see how UNC does without that Longo offense.

It will be interesting to see how UNC does without that Longo offense.

they still have Drake Maye, who just might be the #1 overall pick in 2024. If Maye really is that dude, shouldn't fall off a cliff too much. What happens to that offense in 2024 after Maye & Longo both gone....well....it will probably suck lol.
