At least that isn't as bad as some of the other "creative" productions.

Gotta imagine SU is going to get creative as well...

They did mailings last year. Seems like Ace, AJs Dad, did some things on twitter too.

247 Sports is predicting Conway to Illinois. Same with OL Quinn Oseland from Springfield, IL.

The Illini received a commitment from 4-star Gabe Megginson of FL last week so what's up with this?

Wait you mean to tell me that a kid from the state of Illinois may decide to play football at a college in the state of Illinois? I'm blown away.

Anyone got video on this kid?

Fire me!!

I really like this kid. I had him pegged as one of our next commitments, but Illinois is making a big push. I'm pretty interested to see which way this one goes. Do we continue to beat out Illinois for their in state kids, or are the local kids starting to buy in.

It's easy to buy into Illinois football this time of year.

No, no...everything you do for this board...even awesomeness takes days off...ya know?

Yeesh! Don't want to get too negative here, but I'm generally not impressed with what I'm seeing out of OLine prospects listed here for 2015. The ones I've looked at so far are not even close to the guys we took last year.

That said I think Conway is a good physical specimen, and watching his tape the thing that I like is his effort/intensity. But he's (and the others I've looked at) going to need a lot of work...a lot...to excel at the next level. Will be interesting to see senior highlights.

Conway was actually ones of my favorite OL prospects. Obviously he needs some bulking up, but he has natural athletic ability you don't always see.

That 247 Crystal Ball had Aaron Roberts going to Illinois too, all the way until the day he committed to SU. Just to name one. Really would like to grab this kid. I can't stand Beckman, arrogant little weasel

 

[CuseLegacy]

Well as of right now his Avi is still the same, him standing in the Carrier Dome endzone and all his pics are Cuse. No sign or mention in his twitter that he even visited Illinois.

 

[CuseLegacy]

I'm probably the only one who noticed this but both Conway and Fredericks were offered by Buffalo yesterday. Uh huh, Okay.

Fredricks was pumped.

Conway picked up an offer from Rutgers today. Surprising to see Rutgers follow us out to the Midwest. Wouldn't be surprised if they saw our success out there and are trying to use their new B10 footprint to make some noise. I don't see them having much success though. Just like we struggled to get back into NJ for years until we had a coach with ties to the area (Acosta), I don't see Rutgers being able to come close to the success we had in the area. They don't have any Time Lesters' or Deandre Smiths' on their staff.

As for Conway I was expecting a commitment from now. I think Illinois was able to get back into the picture and then some. I really like this prospect hopefully we are able to win out in the end.

Cody Conway, offensive tackle, Plainfield North. Conway has offers so far from Illinois, Syracuse, UConn, Rutgers, Central Michigan and Nevada. Yet with the lack of true offensive tackle body types in the Class of 2015, head coach Tim Kane and Plainfield North have hosted a ton of college coaches from across the Midwest this spring. Look for more Big Ten schools in particular to get involved sooner rather than later.

He's in the fold

 

[ConnectiCuse]

Commits to Cuse.

 

[anomander]

BOOOM GOT HIM!!

 

[DCCuse]

Kind of surprising (joke)...doesn't he know that Big 10 powers like Illinois & Rutgers also offered him
