Sign of things to come?

Not to be a downer, but is there a team in America that does not have a recruiting video that makes its recruits look good?

That's kind of what I'm cautioning people about...don't be impressed by the 50 yard run, be impressed by the specific qualities within the 50 yard run.

Geter has some very quick feet, fluid hips and the kid just explodes into high gear in the open field.

Stanley reads the ball well, has really quick feet also and he closes quickly on the ball carrier. He also tackles very well (hammb will be glad to hear that he wraps guys up and takes them down)

Scout said he was a good strong tackler in their writeup, but they didn't have video.

I'm anxious to see the recruiting video this year...Hard to guage recruiting really, but I like what I've read about this class. I don't think it's the best group in the MAC, but seems like we added some athleticism, and that's a good thing. Now we need to develop that talent.
