No ND did not offer Freddy. He went to a Junior Day and the BND a big deal about it. He is not a QB, he will be playing another position.

I kid who should have transferred to Edwardsvillle, Freddy Edwards of Granite City.
Mitch does similar role outs on the bears. Pointed it out to my brother to have the announcer immmediately say it wasn’t good. I’m no QB expert but it looked pretty cool.
He just added Penn State to the list of offers as well. Over/under on getting one from the all the big ten schools before EOY?
ND never offered him...he made an unofficial visit that year only.
Iowa State is his only offer and I'm pretty sure that came earlier this year.
Yeah I saw that offer on the Twitter machine last night. He'll probably get most of the B1G for sure.
As for the escaping, I know I was like "what are you doing?" But hey if it works... Reminds me of those NFL films where the coach is mic'd while the play is happening, "No! No! No! Yes! Yes! Yes!"
If Racki was mic'd up thats exactly how it sounds.
JJ was at Notee Dame yesterday, not sure if he got an offer or not
Great to see the offers piling up for this young man. I and many others who are not normally Naz fans really like the way he plays the game and his demeanor off the field. When it's time to make his choice of which college he's going to attend it will be one of the biggest events on Edgy IMO. Even tho he has two more years to go I wonder where other posters would like to see him end up in college?
I'd personally like to see him go where there is a great QB coach who can further develop his talents. Don't know where that may be but it sure looks like this kid has a ton of potential to go beyond college.
Beckner has been playing really well this year too.

His legs finally decided to behave. Dude is a beast. Will be great on Sundays as long as he can stay healthy
For his own sake not the B1G 10 and hopefully an SEC or Pac 12 throwing school.
That's always a valid point. With his talent he's going to make it unless he takes to the option.
If he does make it either way he will be better prepared outside the B1G. Maybe NU? Fitz likes to sling...
I'd say go to NU because if you tear up your knee you don't have an SEC degree.
Can’t see that happening now that they have Fields from Georgia. I heard JJ is very happy Fitz is staying at Northwestern.
Last off season it was all the talk about Sophomore AJ....this year JJ.....if your son goes by CJ, PJ, or TJ, and is a freshman, he could be headed for a huge season!
Joking aside I think he’s obviously an extremely talented kid, next year will tell a lot on how he can carry a team with without a loaded supporting cast. I know, I know, Naz will have good players, but he had some special ones this past season.

If Fields is as good as advertised and flourishes under Day like Haskins did then he’ll be in his last year when JJ hits campus.
According to QB Hit List, he is #3 for his class for pocket passers. #5 overall for QBs. Curious to see how this changes throughout all of the camps this summer. Also, not sure how reliable rankings on QB Hit List are as I only learned about this because I decided to search what he was ranked.
He’s visiting Columbus this weekend with quite a few other highly ranked national players (5* WR Julian Fleming, among others). It will be interesting to see how he and Day hit it off.
I was just watching the "Spot-Light on the Finals" and he is so fun to watch. He moves so well in the pocket. He is so good at reading defenses and feeling pressure and moving up in the pocket to throw. Perfect mechanics. Really fun to watch someone this young who already looks like a high-level college QB.
One of the offensive varsity coaches at Naz (Brody Budmayr), his brother is the QBs coach at Wisconsin (Jon Budmayr), so maybe there is a chance. Not sure how much that will help tho.
Here's the preview. The actual show is a half hour and really well done. 15 minutes for NAZ game and 15 minutes for LA game.

Given Wisky’s QB history I’d shy away. This Mertz kid is supposedly the real deal, though.
