2016 Recruiting: The Early Lead
The Committed: OT Erik Swenson (6'7" 290 lbs) Grade: 83 - Swenson is a nice get to start off the 2016 recruiting cycle. His size alone warrants a look from every big-time program in the country. He already had offers from Notre Dame, Ohio State, Illinois, and Northwestern as well. QB Messiah DeWeaver (6'3" 200 lbs) Grade: 81 - Thus far an underrated recruit that is proving himself in the summer camp circuit this year. Had lots of interest from other teams already and probably will still receive more offers in the next year, but it sounds like this is a dream come true for him. Seems to have all the tools the coaches are looking for in a passer. He was recruited by Offensive Coordinator Doug Nussmeier. Interested Prospects with Offers: OL Richard Merritt (6'5" 345 lbs) Grade: 89 TE Isaac Nauta (6'5" 240 lbs) Grade: 88 WR Dylan Crawford (6'1" 175 lbs) Grade: 88 S Brandon Jones (5'11" 185 lbs) Grade: 88 OL Ben Bredeson (...
