***MODS PLEASE MOVE THIS TO THE IMPORTANT THREADS SECTION***

Looks like 2019 is already off to a good start. 33 offers out thus far. No commits yet, but hopefully that changes soon and we can wrap this class up early like last 2018.

Based on the offers out, looks like they are targeting WR, CB and DL to start

Remember when May used to be considered the evaluation period for the upcoming class? That is a quaint memory. Now you have to make a good percentage of your offers for the upcoming class before you've even finished the current one, crazy times.

81, Crazy indeed. Some offers are still to "show me" players. You don't really know how productive they are or will be, especially linemen.

I hope someone that has experience

2019 Offer to twins by Knowles and note about Knowles as new DC:


http://www.daily-chronicle.com/2018/01/2...s/a19153r/

Quote:Knowles was on hand at Immaculate Conception in Elmhurst on Monday morning when he gifted both Khalil and Khali Saunders on their 17th birthdays with a football scholarship offer to NIU.

Quote:Note: NIU coach Rod Carey has yet to officially announce Knowles as NIU's new defensive coordinator. Former defensive coordinator Kevin Kane left the team last Tuesday for the same position at Southern Methodist University. On Wednesday, The Daily Chronicle discovered Knowles is expected to be promoted to NIU defensive coordinator.

Seems like we have offered everyone who plays football, regardless of grade 9-11, at St. Thomas Aquinas in Florida. Also a lot of offers out to Michigan kids. Still no designation of who is the recruiting coordinator.

Same it looks like at Deerfield Park.

Where do you see the offers?

On "NIU recruiting"'s twitter account.

St Thomas has the best of everything for a HS program, including position coaching.
So you get a player with the technique that's a contributor right away. There is not much upside with these guys as other players.

According to 247 Sports NIU has already dished out 56 scholarship offers. Definitely a different recruiting philosophy!

He really, really, really says the “University of Northern Illinois”. He will fit in perfect for all the TV games.

Is he for sure going to NIU and not Northern IOWA?

I mean it's really tough to tell, he sounds confused, just want to make sure everyone is on the same page here.

Good size and speed. Love how he outruns every in his hudl video.
