Who is it??

Am I making this up, or was Mendez also at this visit? Makes sense that it doesn't get much bigger than him. Personally, knowing the Naak family, I cannot imagine seeing Tate in anything other than the Hawkeye Singlet, but I am not THAT close to them...and it has to be the right offer/situation/etc. I know Tate had thought about Wisky, but that was when McD was there... I am/was thinking that he is more interested in McD than he was to Wisky....but that doesn't mean to the extent of Cornell College.

Next couple days gonna get a few for sure. A B1G one for sure. And another conference. Oct 8-Oct 31 fun times lots of verbals
 
Willie’s the best when it comes to high school recruiting but the reason the announcement is being pushed back is that the recruit needs to notify coaches. Wasn’t this the case prior to putting out that the announcement would be tonight?
It might be taking longer than expected?

Yes getting ahold of 4-5 staffs thanking them and talking directly to them can take longer than expected at times. Kids may think call them all tonight and it's done sometimes it's not that easy. Glad this young man is taking the time to call all the coaches that's what needs to happen. It's the first time most kids have to be an adult and call other adults and tell them thanks but no thanks it teaches accountability

And they could be considered tough calls to make. So maybe they put if off a bit.

I was thinking of the other brother combo; but I like that the Martinsons seem to be late bloomers with a high ceiling.

Both are top 40 guys in all of Iowa. Don’t think either are nationally ranked, but Carter did beat a ranked Kal Miller at Northern Plains.
Both have taken a step forward over the last 12 months
All awesome to hear! I love these types
 


This is the way it should be done. Put out information that things are brewing but don’t get ahead of the kids doing the right thing. Good job, Willie.

I agree. You’d have to be pretty awful to steal that moment from the athlete. Not to mention… I’m sure kids/coaches would stop telling you in advance.
