Dawson was offered but it was at a time when ND owned O'dea. Demetriuse Dubose, Lake Dawson and Carlos Pierre-Antoine where all Irish dudes from the same time period who went to ND.
As someone who lives in the past, that was pretty cool. I don't know a lot of the names prior to the mid-90s, but it sure seems like the state used to produce a lot more better players. Those late-80s and early-90s classes are insane. Bruener and Conwell in the same class is pretty badass. Harrington and Tui in the same class is pretty impressive for the region. Does anyone remember if they recruited Jake Plummer at all and if Lake Dawson considered UW?
