Rex Hudler Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Feb 6, 2013 -> 01:35 PM) I dont even look at star numbers anymore. As long as Wisconsin gets reasonable talent, they will have a shot. Supposedly Andersen was able to keep most recruits from switching so Wisconsin should be fine again, even if they dont have the gaudy star numbers. Been meaning to ask you... did Bielema take many assistants with him to Arkansas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bielema took a good amount from Wisconsin. Only 2 coaches remain from his staff. For the most part it only hurt because it was late in the game, Andersen did really well and picked up a few interesting guys that werent even on Wisconsin's radar. Wisconsin probably lost 1-3 upper level recruits over this. But that isnt to bad given the fact that Andersen was only coach from late December.

I was just curious if any of the longer standing staff members that had previously stayed when Chryst left, went with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Most of the guys who left with Chryst were offensive guys who really had no connection to Bielema. Bielema took the defensive guys and strength/etc with him. Kind of just bad timing because Wisconsin lost a lot of their old coordinators/assistants the years before when Chryst and Doeren left.

LittleHurt05 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 QUOTE (dasox24 @ Feb 6, 2013 -> 06:08 PM) For all of you guys: 247 Sports has a pretty cool team rankings feature where it takes the average rankings of the 4 major sites (Rivals, 247, ESPN, Scout) to get an overall idea of where the industry as a whole has your team ranked: http://247sports.com/Season/2013-Football/...iteTeamRankings 11 of the top 25 classes are in the SEC. Some of those coaches are gonna have a fun time explaining their under .500 conference record with a top 25 recruiting class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so disappointed once I saw her face, but man she looked great from behind... This was basically a spoof of the Bama fax cam girl. As for Bell, I was pretty confident about him until about Monday night when we heard OSU was making a push. At that point I started worrying.

Brian Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Iowa State offered Sean O'Mara from Benet. I'd compare him to Jack Cooley from ND. Just a junior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenksismyhero Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 So apparently Illinois has made some some serious inroads on 2014 5* PF, 11th overall ranked, Leron Black, a prior decommit of Baylor. He'd be a pretty nice get for Groce in his first year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Reggie Rose is handling Cliff Alexnder's recruiting and screwing around with things.

Brian Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Soph Evan Boudreaux from Lake Forest visiting Wisconsin game tomorrow. He's a 6'7 forward who played really well this year. Quit football to concentrate on basketball so he's really strong. Biggest worry is he may not grow anymore. Can shoot as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmteam Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 IU landed their highest rated football recruit ever. He had offers from places like Alabama, Florida and USC. Not that I'm saying this guy was high on those schools' lists, but I'm still used to Indiana being the only non-MAC offer guys get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
