Spaz lands first blue chipper

Michigan QB Joe Boisture committed to BC Tuesday. Regardless of how you feel about recruiting, this is nothing but a positive sign for Spaz and BC. Boisture is a big kid with a big arm and had interest from numerous schools. He could have played the waiting game. But instead he's ready to move forward and lock in with our Eagles.


Boisture is much more in the mold of the TOB era QBs. We shouldn't read too much into that though. Tranq used QBs with a variety of styles in his last few stops. Boisture's commitment doesn't mean we are going back to pure pocket passing. It just means that BC can be a player for our prime targets. Now let's hope Boisture starts a flood for the recruiting class of 2010.

This is a huge get for the new regime. Had he stayed on the market, Joe would have likely gotten a couple dozen more offers. You never know with these kids until they're in pads and playing college ball, but the kid is a remarkable prospect, and a great early season win for the new coaching staff.

What kind of bizzaro world have we entered? This is not my father's BC.

how is his name pronounced? is it BOY-stir? boy-STURE? BOYSH-ter?

Groundhog...not sure, I'll ask tonight. If I were to hazard a guess, I would say:

"BOYST-yerr"

I'm assuming it's pronounced like "moisture", but that's just a guess. And this is great, getting this kind of recruit so early.

I wouldn't assume that Boisture is a "pure pocket passer". The kid throws very well on the run, which is even more remarkable for his size. Odd that he would give a verbal so early when so many schools are interested. Didn't he miss a lot of his junior season due to injury?
