I was amazed that the team was still able to spread out […]

Fall Camp Review: Day 5
The Jackrabbits had their fifth day of practice in a row and ended on a high note before they enjoy a one day break on Monday. Again, the energy and intensity was high throughout practice. Players were moving and the competition within and between position groups was fierce. It is clear that the players realize […]
All Roads Lead to Brookings. A look at where they are from.
Yesterday, Illinois football blogger, Coach Big Pete, made a post about the success that SDSU, USD, NDSU, and UND have had recruiting in Illinois. I went through our roster and realized we did indeed have a number of student athletes from the Land of Lincoln. It got me thinking, where else does the Jackrabbit football […]
