...that TE Robby Preckel will be a Wildcat.
He committed to coaches on the first day of his official visit this weekend. He plans to announce tonight and we'll have a feature story once he announces, but a few other notes from our call:
-he's more of an athlete right now at 215. Said he's playing RB, WR, TE, HB, FB, etc in his HS offense and was 190 last season, but he's offered at tight end and wants to be at least 230 when he hits campus next year
-part of the delay in his offer he said was that the coaches weren't sure if he'd immediately fit in at TE, decided they wanted an athlete like him in the building and work out the details later
-one of his biggest advocates on staff was OC Zach Lujan, who liked his flexibility to play out wide, tight end or even in the backfield as runner or blocker
-even though he has some athlete traits, it seems that he will slot in as Northwestern's second TE in this class and wrap up their recruitment of the position in this cycle
-may have seen him listed as Thomas Preckel a few times but he goes by his middle name/nickname, Robby.
