2017 Football Recruiting

For those that weren't following along at the time, Minnesota was actively recruiting the relatively unheralded Bates and planned to take him over 4-star Dior Johnson. Word was that they just liked Bates better. Johnson would very likely have signed with Wake if the Gophers had stayed with that plan. However, right at the end of the dead period they changed course and took Johnson over Bates. That left Wake to battle Iowa and one other school (Indiana, maybe?) for Bates.

Very interesting. Obviously has worked out well for WF so far.
 
I would guess our fast start will make it easier for the staff to fend off the commitment poachers our current recruiting class. Puts something tangible to Clawson's sales pitch. Winning cures a lot of things.
 
The announcers said Redd was going to be wearing 4 different jersey numbers in the game.
 
Plus he still has another year in HIGH SCHOOL that should give him plenty of time to get back to his playing weigh. But in spite of that he is pretty damn good at 120 is he not?
 
All this. He won't see the field at Wake until 2019 at the earliest and probably a year or two after that.
