2024 Recruiting Thread

Jeem better get on the phone with 4* WR Nick Marsh. Kid is a freaking stud.

Sounds like Courtney Hawkins was his guy.  According to one the 247 Midwest insider, this actually made him more solid to MSU, that he was not a Mel Tucker guy

Texas is going to go on a run the next couple drafts of putting guys in the NFL.

A&M is simple...they have a terrible retread of a coach who hasn't been good at his job in at least 10 years, took the $100 mil from A&M and ran away from Florida State and has checked out. They think they can buy coaches and HS recruits....and well, you can't. Can't buy winning culture, can't buy effort, can't buy discipline....and they have none of that. I legit can't believe they actually hired Bobby Petrino- another washed up retread like Jumbo. The game has passed both of those gumps by.

Agree with all of the above.  And because of my wife, I'm one of the rare Texas fans that actually pulls for the ags when they're not playing us.  But man they just keep digging themselves deeper and deeper.  Petrino might be the biggest WTF? of all time, perhaps.

how does a Texas kid like this wind up at Texas Tech? Wow.

He's a legacy, his dad played at Tech.

Plus, Tech offered almost the entirety of their non-committed NIL funding to make him happy.

JD Crisp received an offer from Nebraska this past weekend.

JD Crisp committed to Nebraska this past weekend.

It sure sounds like the staff is giving JD Crisp the freedom to play not only both sides of the ball but on the baseball field as well. He apparently is listed as a defensive back but can play wide receiver as well.

At 6 feet tall and 190 pounds he is an exceptional athlete.

So this is also a win for the Nebraska baseball team as well.

He is the 25th commitment in the 2024 class. He is also the eighth player from Texas in the class as well.

He currently has zero stars and is not ranked. I wouldn’t worry about that too much as Rhule has showed that he knows what he is looking for in athletes. He wants speed speed speed and because of this commitment, JD Crisp will likely be getting at least three stars.

Crisp had offers from Iowa, Air Force, Army, Navy and Arkansas State.

4* S Reggie Powers has decommitted.  That one seemed like it was coming, even before the Mel Tucker stuff.  His film looked way too good for his ranking, and the ranking eventually caught up.  Very rarely does MSU hang onto an Ohio commit, once that OSU offer comes in, let alone Alabama, Georgia and Oklahoma

Nebraska's 2024 recruiting class is growing, and its latest addition is an in-state flip.

Papillion-La Vista tight end Eric Ingwerson, who committed to Pittsburgh in March, announced on social media Wednesday that he was joining Nebraska's recruiting class instead.

Ingwerson is the 26th overall commit and seventh in-state pledge in Nebraska's upcoming recruiting cycle. The 6-foot-7, 235-pound prospect has positional flexibility that could indicate a move to offensive tackle in the future, though his existing skills at tight end are hard to ignore.

Ingwerson joins Ainsworth's Carter Nelson and Ian Flynt as members of the Nebraska class, signaling that NU's future tight end room is in good hands.

UW is also on him. Fickell was his second offer, after UMass.

lost his 5th star because he was more like 6'1ish and not 6'3+ and didn't wow with a huge arm in t-shirts and shorts in summer camps. Basically the opposite of Shane Morris- who was a t-shirt and shorts camp warrior that sucked at actually, you know, playing the game of football. 

Jadyn Davis has basically been perfect his senior year.

thank god these bums flipped to Kentucky...lol.

He said Kentucky’s 3-4 defense was a better fit for his skills than Michigan’s scheme, and he’d started to question whether his role at Michigan would be the one he envisioned during the recruiting process.

“I was told a few things, and I watched film on the school, and I feel like I wouldn’t be doing that there,” he said. “A few things they told me were going to happen with how many people they were going to take ended up being something totally different. Opportunity-wise, I didn’t feel like I was going to have the best opportunity there to make it to the next level as I would in a different conference.”

Both brothers acknowledged the opportunity to play early factor into their decisions.

Michigan’s coaches have stated their desire to rotate as many players as possible up front, and they’ve stuck to it this season. Edge rushers Jaylen Harrell, Braiden McGregor, Derrick Moore and Josaiah Stewart are averaging between 17 and 26 snaps per game, per TruMedia, with Harrell playing the most, Stewart playing the fewest and McGregor and Moore each averaging 22.

That kind of system isn’t for everyone, Moore said. Michigan’s rotation works because the Wolverines have buy-in from the entire group, especially the upperclassmen who sacrifice snaps to keep the defense fresh.

“A lot of guys can get frustrated with that if they’re not getting a certain amount of snaps or they’re not playing as much as they want,” said Moore, a top-50 prospect from the Class of 2022. “Especially with Braiden and Jaylen, they’re seniors. For (seniors), they probably think, ‘Oh, I’m going to be out there every play.’ But we don’t even think like that.”

The Smith brothers felt they could play anywhere, but they saw Kentucky as the program that offered the clearest path to the NFL.
“I feel like I would have developed just as good (at Michigan), but I don’t really want to sit for a year or two and develop,” Jerod said.


LOL. Michigan plays a base 3-4 defense as well. Michigan has been pumping out 1st and 2nd round picks at EDGE rusher the past 5 years. Has Kentucky had any outside of the Allen kid at Jacksonville? Who has been a bit of a bust by the way. Dear lord thank god Michigan dodged a bullet with both of these dumbass losers.

An Omaha offensive lineman has announced that he is reopening his recruitment. Omaha Central three-star recruit Caleb Pyfrom has decommitted from the University of Illinois.

Pyform committed to Illinois at the end of June. He announced his decision on social media.



The 6-4 310-pound prospect is currently ranked as the No. 5 recruit in the state of Nebraska for the class of 2024. The Huskers missed the offensive linemen the first time around but are expected to be in the running the second time around.

Pyfrom is believed to preparing for a visit to campus sometime before the early signing period in December.

Michigan QB commit Jadyn Davis hasn't played in a 4th QTR and his stat line is.. 79% completion, 1,972 Yds, 26 TD's vs 1 INT. Drops out of the 247 Top 100 though. Lol.

One of the most explosive players in Nebraska is staying home. Caleb Benning, from Omaha (Neb.) Westside has committed to Matt Rhule and Nebraska. The future Husker follows his father, former Nebraska running back Damon Benning, to Lincoln to write his own legacy. Benning’s commitment brings the 2024 recruiting class total to 27.

Caleb Benning was easily the most talked about in-state player through the first part of his senior season. Benning came out and started fast, leading Westside to a perfect record through nine games and leading a stifling defense.

Benning is likely being looked at to play in the Nebraska secondary by Matt Rhule and his staff. But Benning could also figure into the wide receiver picture for the Huskers. Benning has picked off four passes and caught five touchdown passes through nine games. Benning also scored on a kickoff return in his first game of the season.


he future Husker is Nebraska’s seventh, in-state commitment in the 2024 class and the 27th commitment overall. Benning joins Bellevue West teammates quarterback Daniel Kaelin, wide receivers Dae’Vonn Hall and Isaiah McMorris
