Add Arkansas State to the list of offers for the services of Dartmouth offensive lineman John Paul Flores. By my count Big Green players are sitting on more than 50 offers right now, and probably more. No telling how many of those offers are full-scholarship, but there's a lot to think about.
To date, the only two we know for certain who have made up their minds are offensive lineman Jake Guidone, who will use his final year of eligibility at UConn, and tight end Robbie Mangas, who is headed to Buffalo. Guidone had no more eligibility at Dartmouth while Mangas had the option of returning for another year.
No one's offer sheet has the range of corner Isaiah Johnson's, which runs from Kentucky Christian to Colorado, Syracuse and Tulane.
And speaking of Johnson, in addition to his highlight video he has posted a practice video:
Some news: This is my last week at the Valley News. Friday’s my last day. I’m grateful for my time in the Upper Valley — such a beautiful area with good people. I really enjoyed covering Dartmouth and HS sports up here.

I’m super excited about what’s next; more to come on that. pic.twitter.com/6G3nGT1S0h

EXTRA POINT
After a two-week hiatus while the Christmas tree was up and the living room was filled with this and that from the holidays our robotic vacuum cleaner headed back to work this week. Even though we did a pretty thorough job with a broom and dustpan, "Robo" has managed to find pine needles each day this week. I'm guessing they are from under the couch but I can't be sure. What I can be sure of is that I haven't seen any tumbleweeds of golden retriever fur blowing across the floor since our MVP (Mobile, Valuable Picker-upper) went back on the clock. You go, Robo!
