I agree. Why is he different than Crump? Crumps offers are not as good as Sapps.

I think Crump and Sapp will be on the outside looking in on NSD, I could be wrong but I don't know if either is solidly on the roster as of right now...

Wait for it... I think we agree on something...

Whats sad is that you are being serious. Under the circumstances of the coaching change our class is much better than anybody was legitimately expecting. You going to judge the putting together of a class in the last few weeks before signing day?

No. I understand that Dewlee is in a tough situation. It's wholly unreasonable to expect a top class in the 3 weeks he's been given. Obviously, we weren't going to end up with a top class with Junior here anyway.

I'd be very surprised if we don't end up with a top 10 class. (As another poster alluded to, we have an outside shot at a top 5 class.)

With that said, I'm past the days of simply filling classes with bodies. You can't do that anymore and win in this league.

Don't read too much into the Fulmer comment.

Don't know if this wrinkle's been brought up yet, but his teammate is supposed to be one of the better tight end prospects next year ... and we will need a good tight end soon. I'm sure getting Sapp doesn't hurt us with Rome.

HendersonVol, Im with you 100% on this one. Dooley has evalauted talent at the highest levels.. Thompson isnt bad either. Sounds like a couple of folks should be applying for the Recruiting Coordinators position. :eek:lol:

There's two ways you get SEC talent. You either find it or build it. Dooley seems to be trying to do both... while also establishing some relationships in some critical areas and schools.

I agree with other here. I think they see Sapp as a LB at the next level. IIRC, wasn't Al Wilson a modestly rated S coming in? I believe Inky Johnson was also rated low.

This isn't the first rodeo for these guys. They know what they're doing.

And FTR.... UT does need bodies and can afford to take some chances rather than leave scholarships open. The past two coaches have assured that by their attrition of the roster.

Big difference in comparing Fulmer filling a class with mediocre talent with a whole year to recruit and Dooley trying to fill a class with some mediocre rated players with only a short time left. I think from the tone of this post you realize that. If our roster wasn't so depleted, I'd agree with you that I'd rather save a few scholarships for next year to fill with higher rated players.

Waste of a scholly imo

You probably would have said the same thing about Inky, Rogan, or a number of other guys who've played like Champions at UT.

If the kid never does anything at UT, the coaches will still have established a link into Valdosta. He's well worth the risk and certainly not a waste of a scholarship.

This is the first guy I am scratching my head with. Unless we might lose somebody nobody is seeing, this scholly should have been left for both the WR's or a big guy.

Trust in Dooley though, can't be mad at the kid for wanting to be Orange, plus ECU is a solid program. Gave Arkansas all they wanted in the Liberty Bowl.

Offering this guy has nothing to do with Rogers, Ambles, Stone, or Glass. Again, as has been stated numerous times, we are going to lose some of the guys already committed. Also, lofton may not qualify.
