'17 VA DE Elijah Conliffe (Florida commit)

I wasn't always thrilled with the MLB play but support him b/c he chose to be a Vol when he could've received aid elsewhere, albeit a smaller school probably. I just didn't recall your stance on him. This year's punting was solid which made me think you held a positive opinion on the position play, but the sarcasm flows on VN nowadays so I was just checking.

Carry on.

Got you. Having a few PWOs playing big roles was a fact this season. The punting was great and the punters we have signed sucked so I was say the is "awful" beneficial.
 
I wouldn't pretend to know how our staff determines how many they can sign. I do know that the number to the 85 max for this year was 23, including our midterm enrollees (this is by my count of the number of scholarship players on the current roster). It appears our final #is going to be 28 or 29. If that is accurate, we will have to lose 5 or 6 players off the roster prior to the start of classes for the fall semester in August. But, that also means that at least 3 or 4 players on our list will not sign a NLI. They will instead sign a form that promises them academic monetary support. It is not binding, but it is done much more frequently these days, because these players can actually enroll in August and not count against the 25 number, as log as they meet certain criteria.

Thank you. Just what I was asking for. Guess Mac needs to do more of that.

Not my implication. UF backed off Gaddy twins b/c of academics. Guess you guys had done that earlier. May mean we are going harder for Conliffe.

That's like a former college player once said. Having a bunch of scholarship offers without the grades to get into school is like having a hot girl wanting to go to the movies with you, but you don't have any money to take her.

I would have said it's like having a hot girl alone at home ready to go and darn it's that time ........

Why does 247 Sports countdown clock always mess up with time zones? They give a time not telling the time zone but the counter clock is at 0.

I think no matter what time zone the player is located 247 Sports uses CST & not EST or PST. However, they should post that to let people know instead of keeping us guessing. Thanks!

Tony you are one thankful son of a gun..
 
The time for Conliffe's announcement was 2:30 PM on 247 Sports. Didn't give what time zone as always. The countdown counter is at 0 right now. That wouldn't be right in no time zone. I believe it's 2:30 CST which means 3:30 EST.

247 Sports needs to do something about this. I think I'm going to contact them via email & let them know about it. No sense in getting people mixed up on these recruits announcement times. Thanks!
