Definitely less. Used to be we'd have 20+ kids from texas on the roster, now i think we have something like 7-8.

Our recruiting strategy has benefitted from the geographical change in focus that's for sure. I still have ptsd from the rhoads years of getting Texas kids with one offer from New Mexico - that just wasn't going to work.

I like this kid though - good speed and height. Let Deon Broomfield coach him up and he could be a strong FS, or corner if they think he has the hips.

Also used to be every player with little if any P5 school interest.

FIFY x 2.

Why you gotta be picking on New Mexico?!?!

I watched the livestream of the commitment. JC pulled a ISU shirt out of a Baylor gift bag.

JC decides to commit with Matt Campbell over seven in-state Texas schools and throw in the Ivy's.
Just the kind of player CMC goes after.

Ivys let you in but you pay

I didn't see that but he automatically moves into the lead of my favorite new players.

Correct. If you/parents make less than $150,000 you could go for free to an ivy. No academic money, no athletic money, just financial aid.

Huh? His best offer other than Iowa State was Houston.

 

[BCClone]

Correct. If you/parents make less than $150,000 you could go for free to an ivy. No academic money, no athletic money, just financial aid.

That number is 65k for most to be free. Subsidized up to 100-200 at some.

 

[Mr.G.Spot]

I think it is much higher than $65,000 for full aid.

But yes, we are saying similar things. IMO, within 10 years, it might be free to go to an Ivy.

I went off this article. I know that too many articles are light on research now so I’m not saying it’s 100%. I considered Cornell when I was in college, actually glad I didn’t finish the process and went to ISU.

How Ivy League financial aid packages stack up, even amid the coronavirus pandemic

Ivy League schools aren't curbing their high tuition prices amid the pandemic, but most already offer free tuition for lower income families.

Nice article. Note: it well into the high $70's for room, board and tuition. Unfortunately or fortunately, I have a lot of experience at writing checks to two different ivies. Good for u on your decision - I love it.

Recently, David Geffen just gave $150 million to Yale's drama department so they never have to charge tuition. Ken Langone, about two years ago thru a lead gift, made nyu's med school tuition free. Non-ivy, but a great school.

Yeah, how things are worded can be confusing. Had a friend whose kid played college ball at a non D1. Was always saying he got a full ride. Talking to the friend during the sons final year, said he would graduate with 30k of debt. I asked about his full ride, friend said, yeah he had one but that only covers tuition. Stayed quiet because I realized my friend didn’t understand what he was talking about.

FS…unless he puts on an awful lot of weight.

This kid is just a football player.

We had a kid that didn't weigh much, 165 I think, but he could sure hit and play football. Timmins was his name and he was the starting safety on the 2000 Insight.com bowl team.

“It aint the size of the dog in the fight. It’s the size of the fight in the dog.” One of my favorite quotes.

That only works if the big dog doesn't want to fight.

Ellis Hobbs - 5' 9" - I think played in NFL 190+ but I bet he was 170 - 175 in ISU days and I would take one of him every single year.
