Some quick notes…
The Bulldogs have a solid group of offensive linemen so far. Marcinik has great speed at WR. The addition of Hines is huge, especially with the loss of Deon Randall and Grant Wallace. Moore might be the most notable incoming freshman of this group so far.
Players return on Monday and will begin lifting, running and nutrition programs. A week later, they will begin 7-on-7s. Spring football begins the last week of March and finishes up with the annual Blue-White scrimmage on April 18.
has anyone found any information on the 5 new recruits ? not much out there no three stars in this group reno must be fishing for talant.
ReplyDeleteChris, who is likely to be the placekicker next year (assuming it's not a freshman)?
ReplyDeleteAlot of bad football players on that list. Not a great class from Yale.
ReplyDelete1:16 -
ReplyDeleteHow on earth would you know?
1:16 Is an uniformed jackass.
ReplyDelete1:16 knows nothing. Nothing. He just hates Yale.
ReplyDelete1:16 is a Harvard alum, or probably more likely, a current student (who is having a great time pulling our chain). Either way, ignore him or her (unless he/she wants to identify his/herself).
ReplyDeleteI've been studying this blog. There are players from last year and years past that some of you have been mad that Harvard got. Research the player - not one snap of college varsity time at Harvard. When it comes to judging talent you all are amateurs. Someone is smart to keep you guys in the dark as long as possible.
ReplyDelete7:33, I'm afraid you're correct. There's a pathetic creature, who having nothing else to do, spends his entire life on the Ivy League Sports Board. He styles himself "Observer." He has discovered and I'm afraid infected this blog.
ReplyDeleteWyldeBill,
ReplyDeleteFor K, I would say Bryan Holmes. Alessi will compete and let's see how Parker Toms does when he comes back.
Is this true? No CT commits as of yet?
ReplyDelete8:30 I do not think this is Observer, who preens about Harvard, and watches Yale like a hawk in case it threatens, but maybe doesn't have anything against any other school other than to be sure Harvard is always #1 and make sure the world knows it. I think this is either coaches or players from the past who have resentments for unfortunate reasons. It's just sad. I agree these folks actually know nothing, they just are patheticaly bitter. As to Ct recruits,who knows if there are players from Ct. the list is not complete. of course you want them a lot if they are great players, academically good, want the kind of school yale is and want to be near family. You don't want to have them just because they are from Ct. Some kids want to stay close to home, some want to go further away.Y has had great talent from mass and RI also for that reason. Y has had some superior talent guys from Ct but it doesn't mean that it will happen every year. It's a big country. go bulldogs
ReplyDeleteJ Hunter Roman is from New London H.S., in CT.
ReplyDeleteI'm pleased with this group of commits.Looking forward to the
ReplyDelete2nd part.This is already looking to be a a really great class.
Cheers Jon Harris
I heard of a couple a more players,but will refrain until verified.

ReplyDeleteLet me know.

Ray I'm sorry something up with my PC, won't be fixed until next week. I can't do it on this site.
ReplyDeleteCheers buddy
Thanks Ray for pointing that out. And it is more an observation than anything; we have had 3-4 guys annually from in-state, whether it be via public/catholic schools or prep schools. Just curious if our recruiting model has changed, seeing as there are several players going to ACC & Big 10 schools out of the state this year (Quentin Harris, Taft QB headed to Duke, for example).
ReplyDeleteChris; Doesn't Keys have another year if he elected a fifth year due to prior injury.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the Ivy League Sports Board?

ReplyDeleteDaniel James is a good pickup for Yale.
Time for a gifted QB (or two) and some thundering RBs. The class is shaping up very nicely. Yippeee!
ReplyDeleteL et V
Jon,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the good news re Daniel James!
There are more but what is the rush to name names? the prize does not go to the team that announces earliest. what a crock.
ReplyDeleteIt's fun to see which men are coming for the next 4 years.
ReplyDeleteOh not so wise 6:49
Look for a HUGE de-commit from Harvard. Can't say he's coming to Y just saying a lot of people may be very surprised.
ReplyDelete^ interesting
