[ponyscott]

Its on Scout and Rivals..from California...would be great signing.

Nice. With Fontana going down, I'd really like to see at least 2 quality O-line prospects in this class.

We have Duhe as one commitment at OL ( and hope that FSU doesn't sway him in the next few weeks)and if Mack takes the offer in the east as a Tiger then this guy would be a stop gap. Not as big as Duhe and Mack, but quick and has a frame to be able to add weight. It would be outstanding to get all three signed obviously.

What is the long term on Fontana? Out a year?

Basically...I heard he could be back late in the 2010 Football season or about the time we would play in a bowl game, so lets say he is out next year and back to play in 2011.

Wow, predicting a January bowl game for us

That's rich. I don't think an injury(or when it happened) is information I need to pay for. I can't believe this.

By the way, OL prospect whom this thread is about is Ben Gottschalk from Notre Dame Highschool in Sherman Oaks, CA(6'5, 257lbs)

Sorry, I don't remember what happened and don't belong to those services. It shouldn't be a national secret.

Was a ACL and MCL injury and he went through major surgery in December...is rehabbing as well as can be expected. He is hopeful to be back to real practice in Nov/Dec time frame. Hard worker and good attitude for what happened.

Gottsschalk is correct and seemed to have been missed by the Pac 10 schools and was on Nevada's radar until Gotts watched the Bowl game blowout and SMU coaches happened to be checking on him...the rest is history. Hopefully a happy ending for us......

I like happy endings

Usually you have to pay extra for that sort of thing
