HoosierKix Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 A name that Indiana football needs to be contacting for sure! A 2022 Defensive end out of Indianapolis. Plays for Brebeuf Jesuit and is a potential five star as his rating stands currently! These are kids we have to start getting some of them. We need to be trying to get a lot of these talented in state kids every year and keeping them away from Norte Dame and PU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His mom is a Purdue alum which will hopefully help steer him to WL haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of teams have top prospects that they have a connection to that can help lead them to that school, but it seems like IU never has that. I'm sure being a historically bad program has been part of that issue, but maybe someday we'll have that. Like for you guys, Karlaftis played right next to the stadium, and Moore played at the high school that Brohm went to. Not that it is anything against you guys, you still have to do a great job recruiting them, but for once I want IU to have the inside edge on a high 4 or 5 star guy. You jerks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh it definitely helps for sure that we had those connections with those guys. And I think it’ll help us land George’s little brother Yanni who is a stud LB in the ‘21 class. I’m sure it’ll happen for you guys at some point! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Karlaftis is very impressive. He’s a physical specimen. Probably a top ten NFL draft pick. It’d be nice to get Strickland if he’s that type of talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah his little brother looks like a beast and I would love for IU to snag him and have a little brother rivalry going on during the bucket week, but seems like he’s leaning your guys way.

Andy06 Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 Good write up, thanks for your contribution to IU coverage! Obviously this guy can pick anywhere he wants to play, and there is a lot of time for him to decide. Does anyone know if we are a legitimate option or is he just giving polite consideration to in-state schools?

I think both schools would be very concerned if/when Notre Dame offers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 Matt Weaver was just on the excellent Hoosier Huddle podcast. Weaver said he talked with Joe Strickland this week. Strickland really likes IU. Weaver said IU is in great shape and he likes IU’s chances. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it matters a good bit especially with the schools he’s looking at. Nebraska is worst in the conference and 133 overall. Wouldn’t call them “very strong” by any stretch of the imagination.
