Been seeing on Twitter, where WIU has been offering a lot of players

I just took a look at the Rivals Recruiting page. There are 70 players that are listed as having some interest in WIU. The football coaching staff continues to be busy!! ;) jc

One interesting recruit of the 70 being Cornerback, Rayshad Lewis, son of Ray Lewis II. I don't yet see his brother Ray Lewis III on Coastal Carolina's roster as he may not be enrolling until Fall, but he was confirmed in January to be transferring there. Could be a good recruiting tool for us to go down there and get a W against his brother and possibly in front of dad. Potentially play each other next year at WIU.

Looks like he's got a lot of offers out there, including a few lower-level (G5) conference teams. I'd bet he's holding out for a P5/BCS offer before making a decision. Still, would be cool to get him here.

Short article today about him: http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/n ... story.html

Rated the 5th best QB in Illinois for the Class of '16.

4th Commit. This is the earliest we've ever had 4 verbals. Means players are liking what they're seeing and hearing about WIU.
