Good to see walk ons still going strong.

This kid looks really good.

His Dad played for Bower's Dad at EIU

Might be able to provide the pass rush we desperately need.

Ladies and Gentlemen, sounds like got a "big time commitment for Christmas". The coaching staff seems to be elated on Twitter

Oh man. Big time skill player!?!?

How crazy would it be if it were Maryland's Lance LeGendre?

Maybe I missed where the coaches “tweeted” big time. Probably a walk on or something. They seem to get fired up about every player that commits. That’s a good thing for players...hard for us to read in to as fans.

IT'S A GREAT DAY TO BE A HUSKIE.

Ex

Kyle Smith out of Peotone, IL has committed to us as a walk on. 5'2 135 lb 0 star punter. With offers from Central Iowa and Loras College.

You aren’t wrong. I am assuming our walk on class is going to be robust

Rocky Lombardi. Former 4 star. This is GREAT.

Rocky Lombardi, what a great name, and seems like an all around great human being

A feature video on Lombardi

They say he's a dual threat. But all I saw was that amazing boom stick.

Wowwww!!!! Come correct in the QB room or don’t come at all.

He has a chance toplay / start, I still like Fletcher. Fletcher will direct this team to a MAC title game.

I like fletcher too. I think I (we) are giving rocky the benefit of the doubt given his Recruiting profile and the program he is coming from (fair or not) and assuming he can make all, or most of the throws. With fletcher that’s a massive question mark, likely larger than it ought to be as a result of play calling when he was under center this year.

Competition is a great thing, let them battle it out. I hope whoever loses out isn’t right into the portal.

Fletcher could sit for 2 years and still be the starter for 3 full years if he wanted to lol. I think Lombardi is the QB and you’ll see Fletcher continue to get snaps at QB. Lombardi is a tough runner so they’re likely going to need 2 QBs anyways.

DPD absolutely on competition making them better.

One thing we are missing is that they are very similar athletically. Big 6'3 225lbs, physical with strong arm. QB will not be an issue in 21 and a better deal with a more experienced OLine. With that WIU transfer we are going to play a physical game of football on offense.

I would welcome a return to the Harnish/Lynch days of an awesome offense putting up tons of yards and points. That's MAction.

A new 2021 commitment.
