We Can Only Sign 26....

[mooreaj21]

Hubbs & Dooley said on the radio that we can only sign 26 players in this class before we have to start greyshirting recruits & sending them to JUCO. Which means we now have only 7 spots left.

& before anyone asks that is including backcounting, we can only backcount 1 to last years class.

How is that? We didn't even get to bring in 3-4 guys from that class.

I know this is being discussed on a thousand threads right now; but knowing this number, who's Top 7 for the Wish List?

IMO:

Maurice Couch
Cameron Clear
Antonio Richardson
Gionni Paul
Gabe Wright
Arnett
Pagen

Heavy in the trenches....

I might cry if we land all of them.

And the awesome thing is that it's possible.

After NSD last year we had 2 spots left for 4 people. John Brown, Marques Dixon, Eddrick Loften, & Marteze Jackson. Jackson was ruled eligible in August which took 1 spot away, leaving 1 more spot. We did not use that spot & now we are using it to back count Loften once he gets here in January.

Did that make sense? Lol It's kinda hard to explain.

Jmoore, how many graduate next year and how many will we have on scholly's next year?

That is very possible.

Also good thing is, were still in on other prospects. We might actually have to tell some of our commitments to look elsewhere.

I would definitely like that...maybe trade Arnett for Rome, it that's a possiblity

 

[Hens67]

only like 14 sr's graduate....maybe less than that

we will still be under 85

Yeah, I struggled not putting Rome on there; you're probably right since WR is actually a one poaition of depth we have.

 

[mooreaj21]

Jmoore, how many graduate next year and how many will we have on scholly's next year?

17 graduate.

I have no idea how many will be on Scholly, all depends on who qualifies, & if we have players transfer, quit, ect..

 

[YankeeVol]

I'd be happy with those guys........Rome would be nice to get Rome there somehow

 

[Doolittle 1720]

If we can get better players, why not decommit some of the lessor 3* we already have? It's not like we would be the only school to ever do that.

OK...next question: Who would be the 3 to 'drop'?

 

[UTMVol76]

Juda Parker still included in number of commits above?

We don't have depth at WR. We need another WR commit this class.

 

[VolOnthePlains]

Power for Rome would be a nice swap. Devrin Young seems like a perfect gray shirt candidate.

 

[Hens67]

17 graduate.

Only 13 are on scholly i believe though

Martin returns
Wolf, Slusher, Bowens are walkons

 

[Orange Studs]

17 graduate.

Let's say that nobody leaves and everybody qualifies, that is a +9 pick-up (minus 17 graduating). How many would we have on scholly? What I am trying to get to is how long its ging to take to get back to the 85 limit.

 

[mooreaj21]

Juda Parker still included in number of commits above?

Yes, he has not "officially" de-commited, once he has he will be removed.

Same goes with Eddrick Loften, he has not been put on because he has not been ruled eligible yet. Once he is he will be put on the list.

Great avatar by the way.

Wolf & Bowens were put on scholarship before the season started, idk about Slusher but I think he was also.

OK...next question: Who would be the 3 to 'drop'?

I would leave that to the coaches, based on the positions that they could upgrade on. Power at TE might be a good start.

Devrin Young and Juda Parker to name a few

Hubbs said it will take 2 full classes qualifying & staying on the team to get back to the 85 limit.
