Hubbard's Isiah Scott verbally commits to Youngstown State

It's already on page 12 haha.

Looks like they are targeting line men and line backers With a few defensive backs in there as well

[FOOTBALLFEVER]

Wayne WR. Swanson has generated interest late from M.A.C. programs but currently holds know offers. I look for him to receive one this weekend and accept. The focal point of this class has also been the WR position. Out of the 16 or so commits about 9 are deserving of full rides if good in the classroom . The others should be split or be a preferred walk-on

Agree again, Fever. Not all the recruits are acceptable for this level of play. Too many were offered that we should have passed on.  As for Swanson, he played a lot of slot wr and he will be sought as he has size for the position. That's usually rare. Depending on who else is out there and available, it's a crap shoot if we get him. I see lots of last minute switches nationally. Let's hope he sticks.

Never got much into recruiting but I noticed they don't have stars next to them.  Did they stop doing this?

According to ScoutingOhio.com, YSU has offered Joe Alessi, RB,  5'10. 190 from South Range yesterday.

This makes no sense.

In the 2016 class, YSU offered Titus Nelson:

@HumbledGrind_22
Just got the offer from Youngstown State. Blessed Go penguins

Alessi is not a bad back and I think he could do well in lower level FCS. However, with the competition they play, I don't see it panning out here.

[paladin]

I can't stop laughing.  Go back and watch the film on Nelson and WATCH the competition. That is some of the WORST level of play you will see on film. Terrible players. Even his own team mates. He isn't that great either but the level of competition makes him look like Superman. We are in trouble.

[ValleyTalk]

We are in trouble.

Per Pally, time to give up on the Pelini era at YSU just six weeks after he was hired. We are so screwed.

Tre'Von Williams, a 6-3 QB from Cleveland VASJ has committed to YSU. Also plays on the highly ranked basketball squad.

Agreed..we are young at R.B. and have plenty of depth. we have a verbal with Deangelo Malone who I judge to be better. We have greater needs elsewhere...Headscatcher !!
