I thought for sure Brekke would see the field being senior day and all....but I guess not. Behrendt still has a lot to learn, starting with not throwing the ball to the other team.

The defense filled up the box score. 7 sacks, 12 tackles for loss, forced fumble and an int. McLin got another pick...he's going to be something special the next couple of years.

Emma: you'll be happy to see that kindler went 4-4 on FGs, and punting duties was left exclusively to Gardener today. Although UWW only punted once 

Commenting on the corners, I think both of them did a fine job yesterday. The only long pass was the 23 or so yard fade on Grayvold which was real good coverage but just an even better throw and catch, was down in the corner of the Perk and saw the whole thing. I think these 2 will be good for the next 2 years!

Here's 2 from incoming Defensive Back/Punter Brady Grayvold

Zdanewicz, Cheesbro, and Grayvold are all transfers from Northern Michigan, curious to see if it had to do with the switching of coaching staffs

Got this from a family friend that lives up in the UP, seems like we got a yooper headed down to the land of the cheese heads!

Per the Iron Mountain Daily News:

"Norway's Brady Grayvold has left Northern Michigan University for Division 3 football juggernaut UW-Whitewater. Grayvold, along with two of his NMU teammates, will be immediately eligible to play.

The decision came after a "very good meeting" with Whitewater head coach Lance Leipold and defensive coordinator Brian Borland.

"Brady was offered the full-time punting duties at NMU but this is a better fit for him in his pursuit of playing defensive back, as well as punting, and competing for a national championship," explained his father, former Norway High School head football coach Brad Grayvold. "Their facilities are outstanding and their fan support is as well."

Brady Grayvold was a standout in this April's NMU spring game, picking off a tipped pass and doing double duty as a punter and kicker.

Whitewater, a member of the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conferrence, sports some impressive feats including three consecutive national titles ..."

These are some of the "drop-ins" that I was referring to several months ago.  I had heard from some players who toured them around the facilities.  Along with the young man mentioned above there is an offensive lineman that could see some playing time as well.

WarhawkDad

Just doing some quick research, looks like he was an Honorable Mention All State punter/kicker and an all UP/Conference DB, which bring my next question,

what's the immediate need for a DB/Punter? With WW returning 2 Senior DB's, any lack of depth?

UWW recently graduated punter Kris Rosholt, so anyway you slice it, a new punter will be taking over in the fall - there is a need there.  DB's are strong - badgerwarhawk, do you know if McCollum will be returning this year from his injury or did he decided to hang it up? As with any season, you can never have enough DB's, the way I see things. I never liked having a kicking specialist as a position player, too - and especially on a team like UWW, I don't know why they would need to do that. Let the punter punt and the DB play DB.

But per say like in this situation, what if the DB is the best punter and in the mix playing DB? Not saying anyone is in the mix already, just in theory, do you tell the kid he has to pick and choose or do you just let the game unfold?

If it was in the newspaper it was public information.  Generally speaking we don't talk about WARHAWK recruits until fall practice starts and they're enrolled and participating.  But if there's a public announcement that doesn't really matter.

Welcome to the board.

Yeah I had asked before about recruits but like you said it was in the paper so I figured might as well share, highly doubt anyone hear reads a newspaper from the Yoop

Chances of Davis:

1. Surviving the grind:  100%,  he absolutely will not drop out on his own accord.  He's fully committed and that isn't his nature.
2. Making the roster: 95%, without knowing how well he can block I can't quite go with 100%
3. Contributing: 90%,if he isn't able to block decently he will be a situation player.  His hands and body positioning are too good to keep him on the bench full time.

I had heard about the NMU players coming down but I didn't want to let the cat out of the bag.

Well if this was supposed to be a hush hush thing sorry for ruining it

Yeah I figured recruits would be more iffy per say because they can change decisions on a whim. Just curious if anyone had heard anything about potential transfers or where from.

Welcome to the site 09.  I look forward to your participation.  As BW said, we don't say a lot on this site about who we hear may be coming, unless they publicly announce.  We had a public announcement from an All State IL QB that said he intended to play at UWW- he is a HS senior currently. There have been a couple other high school seniors that have made their intensions public, I think one was a receiver and one a running back from WI.  I know there is a lot of talk down here in the IL flatlands about UWW,  but nothing public to report except high interest.

Yeah I know recruits can be hard, just curious on the transfers and if anyone has heard of anything. And thanks for the welcome!

What's the news with the transfers coming to UW-W? Heard it through the wire and someone told me about the site and to look here, so I joined up.
