RE: A Salute To The Seniors
As a side note, with this being the last season featuring players recruiting in the Jerry Kill era (08-10, and I'm not counting Mac or Boomer as part of the 11 class), I think it's safe to say that his 2009 class has been confirmed as the best he had.
Lynch and Martel could essentially clinch it themselves, but just going by what rivals has listed for that year, there are so many guys on that list who ended up making big plays at big moments for the team:
Ashford, Baxter, Tyrone, Delegal, Evans, Jefferson, Jenkins, AJ Johnson, Krempel, Lynch, Martel, O'Neal, Chris Smith, Volk, Ware, Anthony Wells, Jamison Wells
What's impressive as well is that I would say more than 2/3 of the group finished their careers at NIU.

It's going to be a damn good game Tuesday. I think we come out strong from the start and finally play a complete game on both sides of the ball.

Agreed. If we have not seen a complete game yet, I think this will be the one.

Wasn't that when PJ was our recruiting coordinator?...
