Early Enrollees

[PA Vol]

Since this is going to be such an EE heavy class, I figured it would be nice to compose a list.

Who is going to be an EE? I think Penix and Martinez both are. Pretty sure Flint is, too.

The EEs are noted on this thread:

'18 Current Commits/Targets

 

[VAVolsFan2009]

Are we allowed to have that many EEs? Is there a NCAA rule for that? If they all come, it would be a significant head start on their development.

I don't believe there are NCAA limits on EEs. They have to qualify and the institutions have to have the scholarships. What they limited previously was the number you could backcount. Since that isn't allowed anymore, it's all about 85 spots available. Since a number of those don't open until graduation, one has to be careful.

Both Berry brothers?

Both Berry brothers?

Yeah at least Evan. Did Elliot redshirt? So that would be 13 openings not counting any juniors that leave early right?

Don't think so. He's been on special teams since being a FR, I think.

I believe Trevor Daniel is on scholarship and he will be gone as well.

Also,

Jakob Johnson
Smith
George
Berry x 2
Daniel
Medley

And we're at 83 scholarships right now. So, we would have room for 19 EEs.

These would all have to graduate early though right?

I think all or most of Jones's players are on a 3 or 3.5 year graduation plan.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Some of those guys have already graduated.

Trevor is a R-Sr, so yeah...he'll be drafted...

GO VOLS!

If he's drafted, it won't be BECAUSE he's a RS-SR.

Correct. A senior graduating in December opens up a scholarship for an EE. A senior graduating in May does not.
