Sure is. Pretty much everybody is out recruiting this weekend. There were many HS games attended by App coaches last night. And some JUCO games this weekend. More offers to come.

Hopefully Stepp is looking for a few big corn feed JUCO O-Linemen!

Only one guy from Iowa on the recruiting board here, so either Stepp is checking out some new prospects or it's pretty easy to guess who he's there to see (or maybe both).

Think it's safe to say that both were/are happening.

From internet reports another Knoxville, TN committed OL offer has gone out. OL/DL Jonathan Roth (6′ 5″ 272) of Fulton High School in Knoxville, TN has received a reported offer from App. Just like the last one I have added a player page with video to the Commits Elsewhere section of the Main Page. The Rivals and 24/7 2 star OL/DL is a MTSU commit from Sept and is showing additional reported offers from Austin Peay, UTC, Navy, UT-Martin, and VMI.

Scout.com has pinned an interesting interview with coach Sloan that deals with recruiting junior college players.

Well...I didn't realize that was an open article. I was going to e-mail some since I have access but guess I don't need to now.

i'm glad that was an open article and got to read it

explains A LOT about why we may NOT be going after some JUCO players even if they could be immediate help. I think it also helps show that our standards academically are where they should be

Another reported JUCO offer. From internet reports DB/WR Mondo Williams (5′ 11″ 175) of Iowa City West High School/Iowa Western CC in Council Bluffs, IA has received a reported offer from App. A player page with both his high school and JUCO highlights has been added to the Main Page. The Rivals 2 star ATH is showing additional offers from Ga. St and Idaho.

More than twice. I'll have a list up soon. Lots of visitors on the books for this weekend. Just getting the main ones together and double checking to make sure they are still coming with the forecast.

Yeah Heff he's on my list. We've got around 24-25 2016 recruits on the list for visits tomorrow that are not offers yet (also a couple of 2017 and four 2018 players, all from the same school). The three I've added so far to the thread list are names I've heard about before. I'm working on adding the others into the "Considering App" section of the 2016 Main Page and I would expect interest in and from some of our visitors tomorrow to show a little increase. If any offers go out I'll be building pages for them. The only reason I didn't list all of the 60 or so players possible for visits tomorrow is it's a little difficult to know exactly where they stand on the boards right now.

We've had lists like this at all of our home games this season but Mike over at 24/7 and I decided to list known targets in addition to offers and commits only. If a player shows an offer on another site I go ahead and add them into the thread list also, as I've done with a couple in the list above. I have a large personal list compiled and, as more names pop up with multiple visits and start coming to camps I'll be adding them to pages. Once I get a little free time I'll add a bunch into the Considering sections of the respective pages for each class. Just takes a lot of time to look all them up.
