QB in 2013?

There are some that think this kid will be the starter in 2013. He certainly is talented and a number of big time schools were trying to land him.
I have also read that he could end up as a WR or used as another weapon on offense.

In any case, Anderson doesn't seem to have a problem going after some JUCO guys and they also landed a couple of DBs this way near the end.

The only downside I see is that Bart Houston could very well bail. He was a Paul Chryst recruit anyway, but that is a possibility.

Makes you wonder what type of offense they will run in 2013 as well. This QB is intriguing.

this is why a kid like Houston should be able to leave w/o consequence when a head coach bails. This is employment training for some of these kids, if circumstances change, there should be conditions for the kids to move on as well.

2013 recruiting class: per Mil. Journal. No further signings expected. A number of commits not on list. Marcus Ball for one.

I don't think we have heard the end of it, so I'm curious why you would say that?

Ball to ASU.

Hopefully coaching turnover is something we don't have to deal with again anytime soon.

I think the key aspect of this recruiting class is that they are looking to upgrade their speed and athleticism. While the CBs they landed aren't very big they can all run. Vercher is a really interesting JUCO prospect that might start at safety. Alec James and Obasih on the DL are kind of the same deal- smaller, but quick and explosive.

I like the Wheelwright and Clement additions also although I was disappointed to see Alex Collins choose Arkansas over UW. Still, they have a good stable of RBs and Clement is another guy that eventually could be in the mix.

It was in the JS Online piece. Statement from Coach.
