Is this going to replace our questions about Barksdale transferring?
Latest rumor is that Barksdale is transferring to Syracuse with Shatone Power's ex-gf, and is switching to wide receiver just to help out Mitch Kimble.
Seriously though, Edgy Tim just reported that we are holding a scholarship for Dunbar, and if he has the grades by June, he'll be a Huskie.
If he gets here, I think he will be fine all four years grade wise. That is one thing NIU is great at doing with the athletes is making the academics a major point while on the team.
Yea, just ask Frank the Tank.
He did not get kicked off the team for poor academics.

This guy went 40-1 in wrestling this year and got second in state at 285 pounds. His only loss was in the championship match.

I wouldn't mind seeing him in DeKalb this fall.
I like the idea of snagging a kid from Nequa Valley every year, just to establish that pipeline. If he's a 6'7" OT who can wrestle, so much the better.
I haven't heard of this guy. So question is if he is so good why hasn't he already signed with someone? Would he walk on or do we need a scholly available for both him and Dunbar?
