Aaron Ervin and Griffin Hoak signed.

Maybe Griffin can convince his brother to transfer here, if he doesn't win the Kentucky job in the spring.

for a fat kid, this guy has an unbelievable motor.  I look at kids like this and wonder why they don't lose 35# and become an NFL prospect at LB instead of another chubby interior lineman.  Watch is HS HUDL tape, he has tackles 50-60 yards downfield!

Cardinal Mooney's Vinny Gentile has committed. Most likely a DL.

Another guy that would benefit from dropping 10-15# and playing LB.

Gentile chose the Penguins over Valparaiso, Dayton, Notre Dame College and several other Division II schools.  I hope we did not waste a scholarship here.  This isn’t catching us up to the Bison.  Again I hope we are recruiting some size and athletism and some Florida Kids.

This may sound negative; but we need to watch the number of Mooney kids we take. I am all for being local, but we cannot have potentially better Valley recruits being ignored. Once that reputation hits, HS coaches could become less friendly.

Many of the Mooney kids on the roster aren't on scholarship here. Wouldn't worry about it.

"Kelz" seems to have "OK" speed, but great size helps make up for it.  loves to make blind side cutback blocks on unsuspecting DBs, not sure how that will fly in college, but again nice size.  We have gotten MUCH bigger at WR.  Should help whomever wins QB job.

We should be adding some beef on the O-Line soon if everything pans out as I've heard it.
