I like his instincts as a MLB, quick reads, nasty, quick, finisher. Reminds me of a Mac Bignell. =D^

There’s a theme of high academics in those offers, well with the exception of eastern and that one community college

Are you referring to western bonner school of academic excellence?

Hope we see this kid making lots of plays because that’s a fun name to keep saying repeatedly.

This is what I like.

“We go into the locker room, and Danny is mad,” Holcomb said. “He’s yelling at people, but he’s trying to get everyone together. He’s an intense dude. He’s getting into people. I love that about him. You can’t mess around or Danny’s going to get into you, which is great because he’s our leader.”

The Cats need that nastiness and intensity.

Wow, this is really saying something if you ask me. I am a proud MSU alumni but even if my own kid had offers from all those schools it would be hard for me to advise MSU over UCD, Columbia or the Air Force Academy. That is really cool.

Yep, but we have no idea what kind of offers they were from the respective schools. For example I'd rather have a full ride to MSU versus half schollie to UCD.

Puyallup? That can't be right. Griz fans have assured me for years that the Seattle area is an impenetrable recruiting stronghold for them. Obviously a mistake somewhere along the line.


:D Welcome Danny!

Same high school as Billy Joe Hobert and the Huard brothers.

Well, you have a military commitment with the Academy and he may not want to play for a bad team at a good university on the other side of the country from his family. I am impressed at anyone getting those offers though.

If we were to get Grebe to pair with Danny U, and Aiden Parks...oh my.

Danny U is a really nice player. Staff is building up a heck of a LB crew.

I can’t wait to see him paired with J. Martin in the next 2-3 years...that’s if they end up moving him back to LB which I hope they do since we got abundance of young RBs coming up and in.
