I may have missed it in another thread, but I am a little surprised nobody has posted this. Matt Burke was selected to play in the Army All American Game. This is one of the top 2 most prestigious HS All American games in the nation. His stock could soar with a solid performance in workouts. Depending on how well he does, I think it is going to be hard to get him out to The Mesa. I think the Southeastern teams are going to come hard at him. Would be amazing to get an All American, but the staff is really going to have to work for this one. footballrecruiting.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1444671

Ya....Burke being an Army All-American was mentioned, though briefly, in other threads. He would be the 2nd Army All-American to commit to SDSU, after DE Dakota Turner, if he picks the Aztecs

Maybe a mistake, maybe not. Kid is damn good enough to be in the game, IMO.

Would love for this kid to play for the Red & Black. He's got to know he has a great chance to play a lot and play early in his college career! Also no way a kid from florida belongs in the state of idaho imo. ;D
Go Aztecs! let's get this guy!

If he blows up I don't think he leaves the Southeast.

Checked the Army AA official page and no Turner listed. Hope we could beat out BSU for Matt Burke then

I saw Dakota Turner listed on a "Department of Defense All American Team" and then briefly listed on the Marine Corps All American team for the Semper Fi Bowl but read he opted not to play in any of those games. He was also listed on some All American Games event in Tampa earlier this year but don't know what that one was.
The kid fell in love with SDSU and made his decision early last summer telling other teams not to waste their time. Probably kept him from getting some offers so he stayed at only 3 stars. Probably why he was taken off the Army list since there was no surprise which hat he'd wear. He's totally focused on staying healthy so he can make an imediate impact here.
