    Another big fish has landed: An OL out of Georgia, Robert Kraeiling, who had offers from Alabama, Auburn, Penn State, and others.

    I like what I see in the current competition for recruits. Love it when Duke gets a big one right out of the SEC's backyard!

    Yup. And Penn State's tradition s obviously stout.

    I remember when we competed with Richmond and East Carolina -- and lost.

    Only six months or so to go!!!

    Looks like a great offer list, though I'm a bit surprised that schools like Alabama and Auburn offered, but it doesn't appear that either of the Georgia schools offered despite him being in state. Any insight on the why?

    Luke Wattenburg, a 4-star OT from California tweeted that he is down to Duke and Washington.

    Duke is on the short list of several other high 3, 4-star offensive linemen.

    This is great news! Championships are won in the trenches. What an impressive offer list.

    If not for that minor event on April 6, I'd be convinced we're now a football school.

    Duke is currently ranked #11 in the country on both Rivals and Scout for the 2016 recruiting class.

    Recruiting, which has been gradually getting better, seems to be taking even longer strides as the on-field results come along.

    I've read we have 2 spots for 3 four-star O-linemen - Yarbrough, Wattenburg, and a 3rd. Is this true, and who's the 3rd?

    What a wonderful goal: a four star offensive line!

    These are the top two remaining OL targets. Michael Menet and Taleni Suhren are also in the mix.

    Menet looks like a solid 100% to PSU. From Twitter, it looks like Suhren tried to commit last night, but the Duke staff told him to wait after Kraeling committed right before him and now Smith today. Weird situation for us - telling a three-star recruit to hold off on his commitment - crazy days for Duke football.

    Wattenburg looks the most likely with him down to us and UW.
    Yarbrough seems the most wide open.

    Love seeing this influx of talent on the OL. Key part of overall program success to have an established pipeline (usually involving redshirting and extensive strength training) turning out quality Offensive Lines.

    More fun for the Thick Thursday crew; gotta add those pounds.
