D1 College Football Prospects in Southeast Ohio

[Shane Falco]

Just heard Jared Icenhower from Jackson has 3 D1 "offers". Congrats! Now 2 of the 3 schools do not offer scholarships (Cornell and Valparaiso) and Alcorn St. Still impressive.

Also Jayden Spires has an offer from Moorehead St. Congrats

Good read. Puts offers in perspective.

Just the fact that D-1 (FBS and FCS) programs are giving looks to SEO prep gridders is a testament to how the high school game has improved over the years in the region. Coaching, training, and facilities have improved and social media exposure gives the athletes a better chance to be seen. Granted Joe Burrow level athletes are few and far between in SE Ohio, but any look or offer garnered from a university is a big deal.

Cornell does give considerable money to football players, as with all the Ivy League teams..
Valpo does give full scholarships.
He also received another D1 FCS offer from U of Dayton this past weekend at the 7 on 7.
Morehead , Valpo, And Dayton are all in the same conference, I believe.

Did Valpo switch conferences? All teams in the Pioneer League do NOT give athletic scholarships (grant-in-aid). I believe Dayton is also in the Pioneer League. Ivy League schools do not give athletic or academic scholarships. They only give financial aid based upon the students need.

Congrats on Dayton!

Dalton Tomlison, OL class of '17 out of Pike Eastern, has accepted a full ride to UMass after playing one year of JuCo football at Iowa Western CC (also on a 2 year full ride, though he only played 1).

On 8/30/19, UMass plays Rutgers for the one of the Friday night games, supposed to viewable on BTN. Expect Tomlison to get playing time. Rutgers courted Tomlison heavily, but never made an offer.

It's always nice when somebody actually has an idea about what he/she is talking about on here...

You are correct. I was wrong and was confused with a different school. Sorry. Pioneer league schools gives merit and needs based money to athletes, which is good for the kids.
