One From The Past, Four More In The Future

Former Dartmouth assistant coach Brud Bicknell had a big year at the high school level in Virginia this fall, helping his team go 13-1. Brud was an assistant under coach Buddy Teevens both at Dartmouth and at Tulane, as well as at Maine. Find a Daily Progress story here. ...

Eight of Dartmouth's 12 early decision recruits have been identified and linked to on the Green Alert blog in the past several days. Here are the final four:

Conner Kempe, 6-4, 225, quarterback, The Benjamin School, Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. (home page)
Connor Phillips, 6-4, 235, defensive end, Winston Churchill, Potomac, Md.
JB Andreassi, 5-11, 185, defensive back, St. Anthony’s, Melville, N.Y.
Foley Schmidt, 5-8, 180, placekicker, St. Thomas Academy, Mendota Heights, Minn.

Coach Buddy Teevens on the early decision class as a whole: "We had 12 guys. My thought was 12 to 14. The operating number is 30, and we could go a little higher or lower. We are looking at 18 or so more spots( in the spring). It helps define more accurately what our needs are."

And ... "Nine out of 12 kids were recruited at a high level, so we feel like we've recruited up in that regard."
