Doesn’t mean anything much necessarily but I’m encouraged by this group. You have the 3 local big ten schools and the 2 Florida schools. The exclusion of Alabama or more high-powered passing offenses like TAMU or Baylor is good news. That the majority are local schools is encouraging.
The rumblings are positive here. The lack of production from the OSU and MSU passing games plus M’s on-field success is trending positive thusfar. Darboh/Chesson/Butt all leaving makes for an excellent opportunity and none of these schools have passers as impressive as McCaffrey/Peters in the pipeline (though playing with Francois must be tempting).
I’m feeling optimistic to the point that DPJ picking anywhere else would be a major bummer and recruiting failure on the part of the M-staff.
