This was a good day and we got a lot better with this class. Went about as good as could be expected tbh

Bass, glad Mrs. Bass is okay.

 

[Buddy’s Bandit]

No effing way we get both!

Sounds like we have a bet

“Smoke on the Water”

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Heard that McDonald could be moved to the secondary. Talk about a killer star prospect, former LB!

 

[pismonque]

Those are some impressive GPAs.

No top coaching staff can even tell .10 - .20 difference in an average player rating. They wouldn't even try. They look at the facts on the ground with each player and how each will fit within the system/scheme. The intangibles of players cannot be rated by recruiting services - coaches know what they want with them.

CJP is the the man. We've got ourselves a HC and an elite program coming again. Thanks again for staying plugged into the UTAD, Phil.

There will now be "franchise" type playmakers at nearly every position with the most important being QB of course. Two classes away from having the real depth we want to be in the NC playoffs conversation consistently. By that time most of the new signees will be redshirted for development purposes unless they are really special.

Don't know how long it will take to get him on the field, but I am really looking forward to seeing Eason stonewalling some opposing RB's. He's scary in his highlights, he may kill somebody. But the same is true with a lot of the guys in this class. Opponents are going to absolutely hate playing us again.

Been a longgg time coming and haven't been this excited in all my 60 years of cheering on the Big Orange. Thanks to all the coaches, their families, all those behind the scene and yes to all you fanatics that do this each and every day. Don't wish to ever know what this class cost us, planes ain't cheap but whatever it was double it next year and spare me the details....and with that I yield back !

PolSci major but just now taking Pols 102? Changed Major and/or remedial classes?

 

[BaldBiker]

In all seriousness. Last class was a really good to great class., but could be misconstrued as a fluke. This class says...no...we are serious.

Are we all the way there In Recruiting? Not yet. Hold "dem orange britches" up though. We are very close.

 

[Bearwallow Bandit]

Seems to be a very solid class. Pruitt and Co. have put together two really good foundational classes IMO. Once a lot of these guys are developed, the program will rise to another level higher on the field. That’s when we should see elite classes rolling in here.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Gonna be scary LBU

With the way Bennett came on at the end of the year, Crouch & Roman getting more practice. Banks likely returning, Memphis Trio incoming, JJP figuring it all out.

I think Eason will push to be beside Henry next season, gonna be a fun competition this Fall.

 

[Buddy’s Bandit]

I have HS coach in GAinesville that just sent me a text....” Joseph kid from Lake Gibon can play....UT stole that kid. He will be a draft pick. I saw him as a sophmore he was a beast then!”

 

[buffaloblue]

Our front 7 had a huge day and we got some interior linemen that are studs. Washington would be the To’o To’o on top of this class. Day one contributor and star.

I mean he probably focused on General classes in year 1.

That is a possibility, maybe keep the schedule light with football in the fall.

 

[Bearwallow Bandit]

Pruitt is flat out going to get it done here. I always kind of roll my eyes when people say a guy has “it.” But Pruitt just seems like that dude.

 

[screenthis]

Always interesting to look across team rankings. Missouri is getting destroyed. And USC (Trojans)? Yikes.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Yep, USCw just secured their spot in college football purgatory with Helton.

You are correct and I am wrong, that is what the catalog recommends.

[Sleegro]

Mack Brown is putting together a very nice class.

Recruiting was never his problem. He locked Texas down for the horns. Other than all the QBs in Austin he never offered that are in the NFL now. Which is the biggest reason he's at UNC now.

Don't forget about Banks. It's pretty obvious he is working his way back on the team.

Welcome.

 

[pismonque]

Good for him! So... his best grade was in Criminology. Looking for an adjective here... ironic?... fitting?... oh hell, let's just go with funny. Good job, JB.
