I've seen multiple tweets from Jordan Pouncey regarding his littlebrother, Ethan Pouncey of Winter Park (Fl.). I just now got around to see his HUDL. He's good. Like really, really good. I know people are really high on the other CB from Florida Texas offered (Jahquez Robinson), but Pouncey seems to be just as good.

The Football Brainiacs think Pouncey's brother could be offered in the next couple of days.

Other DBs to watch for an offer are 2020 CB Ryan Watts (Little Elm), 2020 CB Josh Eaton (Aldine MacArthur) and 2020 ATH Jahari Rogers (Arlington).

Sounds like a brain aneurysm. I have had two friends suffer from them, and they are fine now. He is very lucky he got treatment quickly.

I hear football is starting to catch on in Germany and a little bit in England. I know there is good attendance when the military base schools play each other. I have a feeling German is going to become like Samoa when it comes to producing American Football talent.

Germany has the best league here in Europe, top to bottom. But Austria has some of the best teams in Europe. Swarco Raiders Tirol is probably the most professionally run team in Europe and they benefit from an interesting relationship with the Oakland Raiders.

I've worked briefly with PPI (where Luke Wentz comes from) and I can testify that there's a good amount of talent in Europe. Wentz is somewhat of an interesting case since he's basically a WR/QB/ATH offer, but Virginia promised him a shot at QB. In 2020 PPI has Alexander Honig who's a QB throughout. If I were to recruit Europe, I would still focus on the trenches and EDGE guys. Europe has a lot of big men that can move. I know Texas were looking at a french DT (I think he signed with Buffalo yesterday).

To sum up, Europe is on the come-up and organizations like PPI Recruits and The Podyum are at the forefront of this. As a european, I'm just excited about how much football has grown in Europe over the past 10 years!

England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Italy, France, all still seem enthralled with Rugby. Germany, not so much. And that is a very large population comparatively. Still, I don't really see how football is making inroads over Rugby. It's not like the American military bases are growing...

The Russians also pretty much suck at Rugby so...

For those of you who live over there any input is welcome. Thanks Bloeddyyr10. Interesting.

Yikes.

I'd give Nick Starkel a call if I was him.

[TheMex]

Starkel a grad transfer or will he have to sit out a year?
