Football recruiting 2023

[FWalum]

Paul Oren dropped a 50 min podcast on the Victory Bell early this afternoon.

[VULB#62]

Valpofb16 was one of the podcast guests. There are lots of one-by-one Twitter posts too. Figure the SID is waiting until all the forms are in before they do a release.

#88 RSFR George Dristiliaris has entered the portal. Backed up Hafner to begin season. Molnar and Elmore began taking reps as season moved on

Signed with Butler

[IndyValpo]

Usually there is an article for NSD but nothing. Was the day so poor that they don't want to talk about it?

Just checked 3, Butler has announced 17, Dayton and Drake have not announced yet.

Loved the report in The Victory Bell.

For all the gnashing of teeth (myself included) in the MBB threads, the football program is building a steady sense of momentum. Compared to previous points at which folks were optimistic about improvement, it's a higher level of expectations than simply wanting to be minimally respectable.

There really IS a huge difference in the quality of coaching. Despite being one of the most outstanding people you could meet in the world, the coaching ability is NOT good for Matt Lottich or his staff.

Fox and his staff did a good job recruiting.  I'm excited about the upcoming season

New Commits:

Ian Scott - 5'10 165 - WR - Brentwood Academy - TN

Micah Mackay - 6'2 190 - WR - Lutheran - IN

Chase Lowary -6'1 205 - LB - Point Loma - CA

Scott is only one we lost, he flipped to Dartmouth.

DT Chase Randall has entered the Transfer Portal. Was beat out by a true freshman Logan Chastain. RSSO Trojanek is the back up.

PWO at Arizona.

[IndyValpo]

#48 Jackson Dorr has entered portal. Means Matthes is back?

Transfers to Stony Brook.

[NotBryceDrew]

Brandon Martin looks to be the real deal. 2+ mins into highlights is still sacs 6+ is still TFLs. Not beating up on smaller OL either running through larger tackles and guards. Looks like a great commit

[soapyjeans]

Just read Valpos thread on incoming new coaches, and its an impressive read.  Oh and off topic but hey, why doesn't Valpo Football have its own section , can't help but notice basketball does??? 

[valpofb16]

Would be a question for moderator, I'm sure they could make it happen

[valpofb16]

Ezekiel Zeff Dt has decommitted.

Not a huge loss as that's a position of depth. Have added a xfer there as well who should help. D3 large contributor.

Will play if cleared, I don't know the xfer rules anymore

[FBFan22]

Valpo picks up a JUCO WR,  Brandon Barthel 6'0 195 lbs from American River Junior College.

[valpofb16]

PWO to UNLV / Southern Utah out of HS.

Tezzo, Jimenez , Barthel, Bingham. Wells less dry than it was Jan 1.
