Let's talk recruiting

With spring practice behind, guess it’s time to shut it down until early August -- hardly. Marshall football fans are well aware that May represents a crucial period of the recruiting process. Thundering Herd coaches have scoured the country this month, narrowing their collective focus on what will be the recruiting Class of 2009 that signs in February. I’ll share my thoughts later this week, but first I’d prefer to hand off to Thundering Herd fans. What positions should be emphasized this recruiting season and are there specific players (local or otherwise) on your recruiting radar? I’ll answer any questions ASAP and will follow with my take in a followup post.
