Is this the first offer for a member of the Class of 2018?

Pretty impressive offer list especially for somebody this young.

BTW I found this from Hank's retweet. I have not seen it reported elsewhere yet.  So Hank's really the person to break this news.

Unfortunately it's not true though; we haven't actually offered him yet, according to Andy Druk.

Alabama QB with impressive offers already.  Best part "never got a B on a report card, and I plan to keep it that way".  Sounds like a Stanford kid to me.

Trenton Charles' 4.39 40, 4.5 GPA have LSU's, Stanford's attention

"I've always wanted to go to Stanford, because I knew they had a good blend of both academics and athletics, and it's always been academics first," he says. "I had to be about 5, and I was watching 'em play. And it looked fun out there, because you know it's way out there in California, and it looks fun over there. And my dad said, 'They're some smart people, too,' and he's been pushing it ever since."

Geaux Cardinal!

New Stanford offer to WR Amon-Ra St. Brown.  Maybe we will get both brothers.

Is this sort of miscommunication common?  I have, obviously, no idea who communicated/listened badly, but he appears to think he has an offer.

More common than you'd think. Anything from the misinterpreting general noncommittal recruiting for an actual verbal offer (this happened with Bailey Hockman a year ago), to confusing Stanford with Samford(!), to just straight up lying about it on Twitter to get coaches from other programs more interested.

No idea in this particular case. But no Stanford coaches are following Ohonba on Twitter. He doesn't actually have an offer.

I never paid a whole lot of attention to recruiting, other than looking through the class that signed each NSD.  I have learned so much since I started reading the Cardboard.  This is just another example.  8)

I posted this on the main board because it's Steve Stenstrom's son, but 2018 recruitniks may be interested to learn that Blake Stenstrom, who's playing behind Dylan McCaffrey, will be camping at Stanford this summer.

Since Dylan has already committed, it will be interesting to see if the Valor coach gives Blake some serious playing time this fall to help him get more offers. Then again, Valor Christian plays a lot of games where the outcome gets decided early, so the backups play quite a bit anyway. I recall Christian sat out a lot of second halves because the score was so lopsided.
