Holy Cow! That Pike connection is working for BB and FB. Need to start referring to that place as the Western Illinois Preparatory School. LOL
Embrace the pace of the race.

Yup, that and the Phoenix, AZ area. I've lost track of all the players we've recruited from high schools and community colleges in the Phoenix area.
It looks like there's 7 currently listed on the roster for 2015 from AZ (4 of them from Glendale CC), and that doesn't include any that were seniors last year, like JC Baker, or any that will be signing with us this spring (two listed on the Scout page so far).

I'm really surprised he doesn't at least have a few FCS offers...some of the southern Big Sky teams (Northern AZ, Southern UT, etc.) maybe. If he really doesn't get picked up, maybe he should head to a Phoenix area community college and we'll get him in two years ;)
