Per EdgyTim, Greg Turner of Driscoll Catholic is still getting little interest from 1-A programs as a full scholly athlete. Only EIU and North Dakota State (2A) have offered scholarships.
NIU has offered Greg the chance to grey shirt while U of I has him marked as a preferred walk-on. The kids got to make a tough decision, but I know how I would pick!
Forget the 1-AA stuff, you have a full ride if you enroll at NIU in the spring of 2005 semester. You're not going to play this fall anyhow, so take the late admission and get ready for spring practice of 2005. U of I will have a different coach by the time Turner is ready to play.
