Think that’s how Rickey ended up here.

I count three TE in the incoming freshmen. AJ Miller and Nick Segarra are clearly tight ends, but I think Miles Cremascoli will also, ultimately be a TE. His 40 time of 4.71 is very good for a TE, but low for a WR. I see him like the Leurhman twins, as a tall WR in high school who will spend his first year or two in college adding bulk for the TE position, but who will become a very good receiving TE.

Miles Creascoli 6-4, 208
AJ Miller 6-4, 220
Nick Segarra 6-6, 225

Toledo's Finn heading to Baylor: https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39137409...

Sieh Bangura tweeted about 45 minutes ago that his recruitment is closed. Signs seem to be pointing to him heading to Minnesota based off the comments.

Miles to Indiana, will be with Kurtis again

As I pointed out on another thread, the situation at IU will be interesting, as their offense has been hit really hard by the portal:
Starting QB: Sorsby
Three of the top four rushers: Sorsby(QB), Howland, Lucas
Two of three starters at WR: McCulley, Camper
LT: Starter Smith and the #2 Sales
C: Starter Carpenter
RG: Starter Bedford
RT: Starter Benson

So far, at least, they still have their starters at LG, TE and one WR spot (if they have eligibility left)....

P-5

I also need to know when Kurt Danneker became a Big 10 blocker because I sure as heck didn't see it this year.

Metz has done a really good job with that room. Luehrmans played a ton of football. And then Foster and Kacmarek picked up the torch. And the next group (Williams, Butler, 2024s) is waiting in the wings. No wonder Albin made him the recruiting coordinator.

Pretty impressive all of the P5 offers Kurt is getting. Wonder where he will end up.

Let us all not forget - there was a school we all know and love that was one of the most downtrodden programs in all of D-I not so long ago. It was know for having a nice campus, in a cool town, with a good basketball program and a horrible football program. Sound familiar? Yes, I’m talking about Ohio, and you can say the exact same thing about Indiana now. Prior to the Grobe/Solich eras, Ohio football was pretty putrid. Losses piled up year after year and bowl games were all but wishful thinking. But it doesn’t have to remain that way. It takes a university/athletic department vision, a commitment to resources, hiring the right coach, and bringing in players that want to be part of the change. That’s exactly what happened at Ohio and what Indiana can be in position to do itself. IU is a beautiful campus and Bloomington is a cool college town. It’s always going to be tough to top hoops at IU but they have recently done major work on their football facilities and they have an outstanding stadium. They also went out and hired a coach who could be just the guy to put Indiana in much better shape in Big Ten football. I’ve literally watched this all unfold right in front of my eyes with Ohio (as some of you have as well) and Rourke and Miles have the potential to help jumpstart the same thing at IU. They both have a great opportunity to play Big 10 football at a very cool school and I wish them both the very best.
