Highly recruited WR Mike Rodgers from Ft Wayne Bishop Luers HS announced a commitment to Bowling Green per recruiting web sites. A lot of interest in this former teammate of BG 2012 QB James Knapke. Good sized young man too.
Go Falcons!

Re: Big FB Commit
FF1,
Not to "nit-pick" with you on this...but I only see ONE other offer for him (IOWA)....hope he's firm with us, as some of the recruiting articles indicated a strong interest in B-11/12/13(or whatever it is).... Was Knapke a factor in this?

Rogers had several other offers. He is a good get for us. A solid verbal so we are in good shape. You're right though- as with all of these type of guys, you have to hold them til February.
Go Falcons!

Re: Big FB Commit
Here in Ft. Wayne, it's pretty well known that Bishop Luers has the type of program that does not need to re-build, they just re-load. With that being said, don't know for sure who will be taking over @ QB, however with Knapke gone -falconfan1 wrote:Rogers had several other offers. He is a good get for us.

- Rogers just might not have the same type of numbers he enjoyed as a junior and just might slip off of some folks radars?-

Re: Big FB Commit
In fact, it sounds like they were expecting him in Iowa and there is a mention of some academic issues. We have held onto guys like this before and we may have to...even if he doesn't have a great senior year due to QB issues, there are camps. Anyway, love to see him in orange and brown.
