I don't think the CA schools will be our biggest competition for him so I wouldn't worry too much about that. I do agree though, getting him on campus is the big thing. Not only is that a sign that he's legitimately intrigued, but it'll give the coaches a chance to close. We're exactly one month...

I'm honestly expecting Cordell Hudson to be one of our starting CBs. Thought he showed great potential this past year.

Yeah, he won't contribute a TON next year (if we get him) but Thompson is a very good athlete who can run the floor, rebound, and block shots. He should do the well defensively and on the glass in our zone, and if he can get out and run the floor should be able to get some dunks here and there...

Right now, Battle is a SG. I fully expect him running the point next year to look an awful lot like G trying to run the point this season. Battle's nickname is Kid Mamba, for goodness sake. Take a wild guess who he models his game after. He's going to be a tremendous player, but a pure point...

That's affirmative.

Yep. Adams and Conway will almost certainly be our starting tackles next year.

Well, that's mostly true. Some people put their accounts to private and have to approve who follows them, and DMing depends on the person. You can set it to either accept DMs only from people you follow/who follow you, or you can leave it open to accept DMs from anyone. Most people let anyone...

I think we are, too. Mike Lynch just started following him as well. This is all happening pretty rapidly but I like the pace at which things are progressing. That can't be a bad thing...we've gone from him decommitting, to one coach following him, to two coaches following him, to him following...

Yes, though he did add an Okie State offer on 12/23 apparently.

I don't think they'll be the biggest threat from what I've been told. Apparently Mike Gundy wants him bad.

Big difference is AJ was about 170 pounds soaking wet. Scott is every bit of 205. He's also got a much stronger arm. That gives him a leg up.

I know but I'm saying, I think the players probably recognize how short a trip it is from the bench to the field given the depth chart. Playing time is potentially there for whoever rises to the top, and I'm assuming they're all competitive enough to be willing to fight for it.

I would be willing to bet both will be kept regardless of what happens with Modster or anyone else. They have to recognize how thin we are at QB right now, with Dungey's health a question mark, Mahoney being a walk-on, and Wilson transfer candidate. Any of the three freshmen could - and probably...

This morning is literally the first I've heard about this kid, so no timetable yet. It feels like they're making good progress, though. Heard from someone earlier that they're trying to arrange a visit, we'll see if he actually decides to take one.

Nick Monroe just started following Modster's HS coach, as well (and vice versa). I'm hoping that's a good sign that progress might be getting made in at least getting a foot in the door.

This kid looks like a freaking stud. Good agility and quick feet, even if he's not the fastest guy in terms of north south speed. But he's got a really strong arm. Pocket passer first, but he can make plays with his feet too.

Ha! I beat you by about 0.3 seconds. I am the winner!

Doubt anything comes of this...but 4-star QB Devon Modster has decommitted from Arizona, and suddenly both Sean Lewis and Nick Monroe are following him on Twitter. He's at least on their radar. 6-2, 215, offers from UCLA, Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, Boise State, Cal, UNLV, Colorado State, Kansas

Neal is, Scott is not.

One guy I wouldn't be stunned if they look at for a potential move to safety is Shy. He's the fastest LB on the team, and could easily play back there at about 6-1, 220, which would be fan-freaking-tastic. But I don't think it'll happen, I assume he'll stick at OLB.

I've got some suggestions:

I will say that as Dowels and Hudson started playing more, my utter terror when thinking about the future of our secondary was alleviated significantly. Not saying either of those guys is the answer or will ever be an all-conference caliber player, but there was such a clear jump in natural...

I think it's pretty evident this year that the Big 10 is tremendously overrated right now.

Agree entirely. If I were drafting for an NFL team, the height would be a massive part of the equation for me. But I've seen enough smaller QBs succeed at the college level that I don't really care, to be honest, as long as 1) his arm's good enough, 2) his legs are good enough, 3) he's smart...

I believe that entirely, too. I've said before and I'll keep saying, if this kid was 6-4 instead of 5-11, he'd be the gem in LSU's recruiting class.

Agreed. There didn't seem to be much research done into who was committed and where. The broadcasters seemed to be under the impression Tisdale was still a Florida commit, for example.

I got this from the game's Twitter, which is protected and private for some reason.

Interesting strategy, letting a kid try to kick a field goal when he's missed, I believe, two PATs so far in this game (at least one, not sure if he missed the second or they failed on a 2-pt attempt).

I've watched a few of his games this year, I haven't seen a lot of carelessness with him. Might just be a play or two with this being an All-Star game.

Oh good, I see people are continuing the trend of cheap shotting our QBs. Lindsey just got speared in the back as he was stepping out of bounds.

Long TD run for Tisdale. And these announcers are not very well informed. "Right now he's a Florida commit." No, and he hasn't been for quite some time, fellas.

He's wearing 22. He's been splitting out wide/playing in the slot all game.

You're basing this on a couple drives in a single half of an all-star game in which they're playing in a torrential downpour, when several of those "run before pass" plays were DESIGNED RUNS? Ok, Cali. You keep being you. I'm guessing you've never seen Rex play a single game, by the way. And...

Little QB dive from about a yard away for a TD for Lindsey.

Yeah, it's hard to tell on the stream but it's raining pretty damn hard there. Still, Lindsey looks terrific running the ball. Hard to get a grip for the passing game though, the ball just seems to be too wet to really make many effective throw/catch plays.

Yep. That's the difference with him and why - while please understand I'm not actually comparing him to this player, it's a little more appropriate - I can see the references to Russell Wilson with him. He's built the same way Wilson is. He's going to be able to take some of the hits at the D1...

Ha, I was gonna say...it seems like Lindsey is already trying to feed it to Moe as often as possible.

Sloppy, sloppy conditions. Tons of rain. First pass attempt from Lindsey slipped out of his hand. Second pass was incomplete - it looked like it was to Moe, who seems to be splitting out wide so far. First two plays of the game, though, were 27 yards on 2 carries for Lindsey.

Lindsey is also apparently the only QB who will play tonight for his team. So we'll see tons of him tonight.

Lindsey Scott appears to be one of the captains for his team. He's out for the coin toss.

The stream just started. EDIT: And of course the first player they start talking about...Tyrek Tisdale. Ugh.

No, if it's streaming only, it's not on any actual channel. Sometimes there are channels, but that's not always the case. In this particular case, it's online only.

ESPN3 is only online. WatchESPN.com, or if you have Roku or anything like that there's an app. There's no actual channel, though.

I have no answers for you but just want to commend you on finding what appears to be the world's most perfect woman.
