Max Preps Profile
Jackson has an offer and is already committed to NU.
Pretty doubtful he makes it to campus, though.
I don't know the Reetz family but know a ton of people from the Firth/Norris area. Everyone I've talked to that knows them believes he'll go to school.

I have a hard time believing that he'll end up in school if he gets drafted high enough and gets enough money. You won't hear anything else out of friends/families mouths until he's signed a contract for what bargaining power they can use, but money is hard to turn down.

I know the family and will agree, but $ can change minds quickly.

 
Keith Law ranks Ryan Boldt as the 13th best prospect in the draft. It'd be outstanding if he ended up here, but that won't happen. Recruiting is my biggest area of concern for Erstad, hopefully he finds guys with that right mix of ability but too raw to be drafted high.

 
Wow. Sounds like a great get. Hope he makes it to campus.

I agree recruiting is the biggest unknown. I think Erstad & crew are good recruiters, but as you know time will tell. The draft certainly makes it a tough call and the B1G rules do not help. I really was disappointed that we missed out on Justin Black. I thought being from Montana that he would be under the radar enough that the pros would leave him alone. Anyway, I wish him the best. I like the idea of recruiting some of the Northern states and Canada as those players don't necessarily get a lot of scrutiny.

I read an article that said his type of injury doesn't carry a lot of future risk so that's good news for him. I am going to guess he will go in the 2nd round (pick number 43) to the Twins. Time will tell.

That'd be terrible (for NU), but very likely.
Yah. He would be an awesome replacement for Rich in CF. I was just thinking about how we are going to replace next years position players. Cox or Fandel might be the replacement for Christensen. (Fandel might end up catching though) Leuty & Only to battle it out for either 1st or 3rd depending upon where Headley plays.
