"Coach Els loves my film," Burns said. "He is trying to get me down there to see the school. It is far from home, that has been the problem so far. But they really want to try to get me down there to visit the campus."

Terrell is like an hour from DFW airport and then a 2 hour flight to Denver. Make it happen

 

[AztecBuff]

Looks like he committed to Ole Miss in late April.

247 has listed him as an OV this weekend!

Edit: also Adam has written a free article on it

The highlight vids for CU recruits has taken a BIG jump in quality this year. This kid is a bit smallish at LB but he hits like Jashon Sykes. A couple of years in CU’s S&C program and he’ll be a force at LB.

Minny-Sota

 

[Creebuzz]

I guess we’ll be seeing him on the field when we play Minny.

 

[prime teets]

What is with Minny? No one here has ever called it Minny.

You would prefer Sota?

 

[Ruckus]

You would prefer Sota?

Duh. Fat sweaty teets doesn’t want anything to be mini.

Works when you don’t care if you’re referring to the state or the city.

Midwestern slang

No one in Minnesota calls it Minny, and it grates us because we are a pretty insecure bunch.

Good get for PJ.

[jizzrag85]

So he committed to Minny huh? Well, we’ll see Minny in a few years.

 

[SpacemanSpiff]

You would prefer Sota?

I would have preferred committing to Rado.

 

[SotaBuff]

You would prefer Sota?

Yes

 

[manhattanbuff]

Yes

When I lived in Minneapolis, my MN born/bred friends there called the state Minnesota, Sota, or Soter. FWIW.

 

[FLounda]

Minneapolis - St. Paul are just “the cities”

Someone else called it that first, so I figured that was the abbreviated name and used it.

I’ve been to Minnesota exactly twice in my life. Once to the Brainerd Lakes area where a college buddy lived. It was awesome. I’m a really good water skier (but mediocre to poor snow skier), and I loved it on the lake. Perfect glass.

The second time was for a conference In Minneapolis in January about ten years ago. I believe it was in the low 80s when I caught my flight from Palm Beach International. Thank god for those indoor habitrails they built throughout the city. People were great. City was depressingly cold.
