This is huge. We all know CK loves TEs and this kid is projected to play in the NFL.

guy looks like a damn monster for a tight end. gosh, if we miss this next season what a loss it will be with all the senior talent.

I'm really getting interested in Theo Grabill. On his twitter is video of him running a 4.48 laser-timed 40. He's apparently working with Maurice Green. 6'3", 200+ lbs, seems to catch everything thrown his way and looks to be working his tail off. I'm thinking he's a better Dalton Schoen and I liked Dalton a lot.

Pick 'Em
2Does he want to play at K-State, if so I think we should get him. Sounds like our kind of guy.ksuee wrote: ↑April 25th, 2020, 9:02 pmI'm really getting interested in Theo Grabill.

Is it just me.. or has the recruiting been pretty dead for KSU since the Covid stuff all came about? Seems like we've had 2 commits since then(one being a transfer). Just seems like this staff was on a roll before this all hit, and now a lot of commitments are going elsewhere.

I think this just further proves what the coaches often mention is they really need to get kids on campus and show them first-hand how great KSU is, but considering they haven't been able to get kids to campus, it has really slowed down. I know the coaches have said they have spent huge amounts of time with recruiting since the shutdown, but I suppose kids want to see the campus firsthand before they commit. I know the WR from Nebraska, he had to cancel two trips to Manhattan, and then recently committed to Iowa. Not sure if that is a solid commitment or not, but our coaches didn't get a chance to show him Manhattan first-hand, so it makes it tougher.
I'm sure if they can get the campus open, at least to the point of allowing visits, hopefully recruiting will open up again.

A friend of mine from NE Oklahoma called me yesterday with news that KSU offered a scholarship to a coming junior from southeast, KS. The kid is 6'5" and weighs more than 230 pounds as a soph. The Cats are supposedly recruiting him to be a tight end/fullback. My friend reports that the youngster was thrilled to accept the KSU offer of a full scholly. My source tells me the kid has a cousin who has been at ISU on a full ride for the past 2 years. I'll not list the kid's name until I hear something from the KSU staff of his recruitment. Braet and the O-line coach were point men on this recruit.
If it proves to be true, I think it speaks a lot about how hard the current staff is targeting Kansas players out as far as 2 years, despite the CV crisis.

I saw the offer on Twitter, kid is from Frontenac, correct?
