Britt looking like an Iowa commit
- Thread starter PaBoiler78
- Start date
Everybody who is an Iowa fan is saying Britt is committed, but until Britt says it himself, it just ain't so.
And what is it that you know that our coach's don't know????
Maybe those other teams don’t want to win... ever think about that?
Monnot has other P5 offers
Recruit rankings are imperfect, and if they disagree with Purdue's coaching staff, I think the coaches opinion would be the one I trusted. None of these lineman will play until at least 2 more years, probably more. Plenty of time for them to develop.
How many wins did experts predict we would have last year? 4.
Where did they rank our OL last year? Last in the B1G.
Lines are built. They are developed. They are not plug and play. It's not like it's January and we are panicking to fill a class 2 weeks before signing day. These commitments are deliberate - no reason to accept them this early unless the staff see something they really liked. Trust the process Trust Brohm.
Illinois offered Minnot and he was due to go there but verballed to us and left them hanging.
Monnot was offered by Illinois and they wanted him bad. Monnot and Holstege impressed the coaching staff and earned their offers. Cam Craig is just huge. I like all three, but I think Craig projects more as a DT or possibly a guard. Dude is unstoppable once he gets moving.
I think Holstege and Monnot will be very good and fit what CJB wants to do. He got to try them out and liked what he saw. Britt, Boateng, Price, and Jornigan are the other big names Purdue is after. Purdue has gotten a lot of miles out of players not offered by other Big teams and I trust CJB a lot more than past regimes.
I'm with you. I dont like our OL are the lowest rated commits.
Just hope they have speed and IQ. There's a lot of big lineman out there.
Keep in mind Brohm has a particular type of player on his system. He likes tall and athletic OL whereas those players may not fit into other teams schemes as well. Look at Wisconsin’s OL. They recruit monster OL not exactly 4 star players but they are always one of the best Line, at least when we play them!
Also Iowa and MN could have been imminent offers for monnot. And the players had not played their senior season yet. If they make a big step in the right direction Brohm could have some steals here. This is the recruiting time of year where scouting makes a big difference.
You never know with OLinemen, they may have a very good Senior season in HS, which could lead to a bump in ratings, Brohm like his guys athletic as stated before, then put on the muscle weight, while maintaining whatever quickness they have. Again like somebody mentioned, we won’t see these guys for prolly 3 years, till they step on the field, we will be fine
I feel more confident about the offers after Brohm and staff all had live eyes on them and liked them enough to offer on the spot
and Britt was one of those linemen as well.. The lone difference is that he did not commit on the spot. He had other offers he's checking out before making a decision. and to his credit, he didn't commit to Iowa on the spot either. he's taking it all in before making a decision.
