Why you should visit when we hit you up:
Graduate with UW System Degree
Division 1 similar facilities: locker room, weight room, football offices(in field house), Athletic training facilities, 2 turf fields, 🌟stadium, multi.
Class of 24’s
We’re looking for talent, that loves to play football, loves the weight room, hard work is the norm.
And, isn’t looking for false promises to commit to coming here.
Loving this class so far, a lot that fit the mold
What I look for in any position on your film both O/D:
Ability to change direction effectively
How twitchy you are/ability to accelerate/
Physicality at point of attack
Top Speed
Can you make plays on the ball
Can you use your hands and can you bend
Put those clips first!
Freshman class is loaded with talent (23’s)
Looking to stack the 24 class with guys looking to compete!
Year 2 of this staff. Looking to continue to bring in guys who love football

#SWINGTHEAXE
Really looking forward to see some ‘24s games tonight on our Bye week
Come join a place that’s going to put in the work to win. And reward playing time to the players making plays.
No false promises, no fluff. If that’s not your speed don’t come here!!
24’s with UW Platteville in your “Top Choices”… you should come here if you want to compete and earn playing time
And if you genuinely love the game and the work that goes into it!
If that doesn’t fit you, choose the others!
We’re excited over here about the near future ⛏️
Our D just led the league in
Rush D
TFLs
Sacks
We graduate 2 DE accounting for around 1K snaps
4 N/T accounting for about 1K snaps
I dont intend for this unit to slow down. No promises in playing time 24s
If you’d like to compete to play for a quality DL here’s your chance
24’s making decisions on what looks like a faster timeline than last year.
Know if the school has your major, is it the best opportunity in your field of study
Do the research now or you’ll be scratching your head later
With how aggressive the recruiting trail is… it’s pretty awesome to see the kids face when they decide where home is. Complete relief!
Enjoy the process but this is about finding home for 4 years!
Football season is coming up. The big grind is coming.
Just a quick message to those in this space. It means something to me enough to write about it.
Good luck this year and be good
First Defensive commit for ‘23 came in today 😎
Great kid, versatile, does everything right
Can’t wait for this season and to keep bringing in ‘23s that fit
@Ryan_Munz
vision for this program
Love it,
#SWINGTHEAXE
Camps winding down means it’s time to start focusing on your senior season, 24’s
Going after state and putting out new film of you killing it❗️
Stop worrying about your 40 / pro agility and start thinking about your assignments / fundamentals
Fall is coming
Team is having a sneaky good spring
In particular, the DL is cooking. I’m blessed to get to work with some of the best in the country both talent wise and good people.
Future is bright !!
#SwingTheAxe
I am pretty confident our strength coach
@mmartin1416
is one of the best in the country at what he does with programming and really everything.
The guy is making everyone of our kids better than anyone thought they could be.
Dude is a wizard 😂 where were you when I played?
It was a special weekend. On to the next one.
The buy in from everyone in the program is contagious. This program is a sleeping giant…
23s… come be apart of where we’re headed
Man our kids play hard. Yesterday triple OT game was fun to be apart of. Came out on the wrong end.
Win and lose these kids band together so well and pick eachother up.
The future is bright

I find it insane for a college coach to tweet “I’m looking for transfers (in a certain position)”
Talk about showing faith to your rostered guys who inevitably see it.
We are fine with transfers but some coaches wonder why they got guys leaving 😂
If you are considering any field of Engineering, construction Management, or anything really STEM related. You need to consider being apart of what we do here
The resources on campus here in those fields paired with the athletic resources are second to none in small college ball
Welcome to the 3rd annual
@culvers
Isthmus Bowl featuring Augustana College vs. UW-Platteville! Kickoff is 2 PM on Saturday, November 18th at the Bank of Sun Prairie Stadium. For ticketing, merchandise and livestream information, please go to
The amount of talent in the 23 class here and the committed 24’s is unique!
Several big time players still out there making a decision soon.
Come

⛏️⛏️⛏️
Huge commit!
Exciting times for the program.
High character/High Talent/Football Guys committing in the 24 class
Standards are higher and it’s contagious for the guys in the family and joining
The trenches have been a main focal point in this class and will continue to be in the new era of Pioneer Football.
Just got a monster to come join the Neers.
It starts up front⛏️
Love that
@bacon_tyler
was considerate enough to thank
@jblazek02
mid play for setting him up for a touchdown😂😂😂
Good win for the boys, love working with the DL.

Class of 2023 was all about foundation in starting the championship culture under HC, Munz
Class of 2024 is about finding guys who love the game, explosive, and want to come compete⛏️
Nothing promised/guaranteed here
Come work
#SwingTheAxe
#SuccessStartsHere
Don't be about:
Needing false promises
Instant gratification
Be about:
Working for playing time
Earning respect from teammates
Winning reps to play
It’ll stand out. And you’ll be happy at your school of choice for 4 years
Really great people and families on campus this week
Going to continue to grow this with the right people
Looking forward to seeing who wants to jump all in and join the family
You know who you are ⛏️
I’ll be at Aurora for a camp all day tomorrow looking for 24’s 25’s that have talent and are hungry!
Then out on the road in the Chicagoland Monday Tuesday
Pumped to see what my old stomping grounds has in store ⛏️
Good luck to all the many talented high school football players stepping on the field tonight.
Pioneer Football is pulling for yah!
Play hard, stay healthy
24’s I see you… we’re not there yet. We will be soon but not yet.
Class of 23 and 24 is going to be pivotal for our program as we build this thing back up with Coach Munz.
Keep doing your thing in season, we’re rooting for you
If a college coach bad mouths a school and program while you are telling them you’ve made up your mind…
You should think, I made the right decision
And they are bad at their job
