Kansas continues extending scholarship offers early

Wednesday, March 3, 2010

Continuing with an offseason trend of offering 2011 recruits scholarships early in the recruiting process, Rivals.com reported Tuesday that Kansas offered quarterback Brock Berglund a scholarship.

Berglund, from Highlands Ranch, Colo., reportedly already has offers from Minnesota, Utah and Colorado State.

According to Rivals, the 6-foot-4, 205-pound quarterback passed for 2,221 yards and 30 touchdowns as a junior.

“I know they have a great program,” Berlund told Rivals. “I know they have a new head coach who played quarterback in college, and I hear he’s a great guy and a guy I really want to talk to and really get to know.”

Rivals reported Monday that Kansas offered North Miami Beach linebacker Keeon Virgile a scholarship. The offer was reportedly Virgile’s first.

The 6-foot-2, 210 pound linebacker recorded 89 tackles and 11 sacks as a junior, according to Rivals.

Rivals previously reported that coach Turner Gill and his staff were the first to offer scholarships to Keith Lewis and Javess Blue, two Florida-based prospects in the class of 2011.

Lewis is listed as a linebacker, and Blue is a wide receiver.
