Blankenship Player Comments

"Dane. A winner. Coaches kid. Really a tremendous arm. Good arm strength and a great knowledge of the game. Wonderful competitor. We were very deliberate about recruiting a quarterback out of last summer's camps. We tagged him as the No. 1 prospect, offered him a spot and he accepted."
