I've seen it said on here where he's borderline D1. Just saw where Arkansas offered him.

Congrats to the young man. Maybe he'll take that offer.
One thing about MC players for this group- they were so poorly coached last year that HAS to be taken into account when evaluating them. Now, we'll see what happens not that Hall is gone and Peterson is there and see what improvements are made.
Bielema seems to have a real eye for talent at TE. If he thinks Gunter is good enough, that's good enough for me
Lance kendricks
Travis beckhum
Garrett graham
And now hunter Henry... Quite a list
So does Dan for that matter. If Gunter signs with us, I think he would be in the H-Back/FB mold rather than the H-back/TE mold.Quote:

I want Christian Roberson or pass at TE. I'm just not a Gunter fan. I'm sure he's a great kid.
Speaking of te's... Will pierce ever wear the maroon and white?Quote:

Before you answer, name one TE in Dan's offense that was 6'6 240/250 that fit his scheme. Gunter is a perfect fit for Arkansas, hell, he doesn't even fit in Hugh's offensive scheme. He's a blocking TE in a 2 tight situation that can be thrown drag routes and fades in redzone situations.
FYI, his dad is a graduate of Briarcrest and attempted to play football at OM!!
Still glad we offered though because it keeps Ole Miss from getting a free player. By offering, Gunter either goes somewhere else or Ole Miss wastes a scholarship on him.
Damn, so we are now that petty, that we are hoping OM "wastes" a scholarship. They seem to do that just fine without our help.....Kincade and Buchanan. When you sign a juco QB it's evident you are extremely concerned about the development of your high school signees
Oh- I thought he was 6'3" 220.Quote:

As of today we lead.Quote:
