Borderline hilarious on one of North Dakota's recruits. From Deadspin:
"Watch A Giant High School Football Player Dominate His Tiny Opponents
This is a highlight reel for Elijah Grady, a 6-foot-5, 295 lbs. senior who plays nine-man football for New Town High in New Town, N.D. Grady is technically an offensive tackle, but as you can see in this reel from Hudl.com, he does pretty much everything. Which is to say, if you like fat guy touchdowns, this is the video for you.
Grady will be playing for the University of North Dakota next year, and I have no idea if he is actually good enough to make it in the college or pro game. I do know that I very much enjoy watching him Hulk smash entire teams of overmatched yokels."

That dude is actually a pretty decent athlete for that size. He isn't just running over guys, he OUT running many of them. And that last play, blocking job is too funny. rag dolled those poor kids. haha

I know that other schools have done this too at times, maybe even us, but it really is a crappy way to treat a kid. I don't like recruits backing out, but I like schools doing this even less. The effect when a recruit changes schools is not have as devastating as when a school does it to a player.
According to the Rivals site it looks like JMU offered Matt Colburn at one time.

would be a huge get for us...several coaches still following him on twitter
http://sports.yahoo.com/cal/football/rec...ge_choices
According to this article, Colburn's choice is down to four schools - Georgia Southern, Furman, Marshall and Wake Forest.
According to all sources up until 2 days ago he was going to Louisville too
Going to WF. They hadn't offered until Louisville backed out.

wow, talk about polar opposite schools/programs.
All things being equal, WF is a much better choice in the long run IF he graduates.

RE: national signing day 2015
Guessing that since WF plays Louisville each year seeing that they are in the same ACC division factored into the decision as well.

Having Clawson as HC is huge for Wake. Starting to pull good recruits. Still hurts seeing Serigne there when he was a JMU target

Aaron Peak, a starter early in the season, defensive backs Abdul Bangura and Kwe’Shon Williams, receiver Javonn Curry, offensive linemen Wray Fucci and Stephon Root and quarterback Rob Nittolo.
don't see S Tre' Hammer on the roster in 2015 either
didn't even know we had this a transfer RB from Appalachian State -- Chris Simpson
plenty of RB depth. CB depth is young
Report: Rutgers football adds QB transfer Rob Nittolo
