Lets assume (although its bad but just for fun...) he chooses us......who do we play NEXT year when he is eligible? I know OSU and BC this year but do we have an idea of who we're up against the year after that?? Just asking......this has probably been discussed somewhere on this board but I'm too lazy to search and about to start teaching Drivers Ed in 20 minutes. Drop me a link or something, please?

And then the next 2 years he'll play Iowa, Utah 2X, BYU, Nebraska and Vandy. But let's hope in 2019 we are not playing @Utah, @Nebraska and @Vandy in the same season.

Cool, thanks guys!

Tennessee DE transfer Dewayne Hendrix tells me he will make his decision at 6:30. He visited Pittsburgh, Iowa State and Northern Illinois.

I have a bad feeling he's going to chose Pitt

I would bet Pitt and Narduzzi. Be floored if came to DeKalb, buy would be thrilled as well.

I'm thinking Pitt as well. Trying not to get my hopes up but I'd love to have him.

I'm thinking closer to home he wants to play.

That's the obvious advantage we have. Here's to hoping it's true.

A positive - I don't think he is considering us because of locality, but because of our winning program. Big diff and a positive.

We are in the final 3. There is hope. He would be a great pickup!

I think he will choose us because we are the best choice.

6:30 Central?

YES! exactly. only things we are behind the other 2 in, are: stadium and talent level/competition. well-known coach at Pitt

What we offer:
winning program
conf champs
BCS possible berth (G5 tie in)
nice facilities (although stadium small)

for him, with us:
he would get playing time right away
closer to home
many accolades?


........or go be a solid player on a team that is gonna get worked over in the Big 12 or be on mediocre team in ACC

Looks like Pitt got him.

Yeah, they were the clear favorite.

Worth a shot. Glad the staff went after him.
