So if there are only 22 spots and we already have 20 commits, who if anyone is likely getting the “You might want to look around” treatment? Can we only take 22 this year?
Thanks, I’ll hang up and listen.

I have all but written off Cox from being apart of this class. That puts the current class at 19. This board is convinced 22 is the number, however Callahan, who probably knows more about UT Recruiting than anyone not a part of UT's staff, says Pruitt will find a way to take 25. I am going to assume the conservative middle ground and say we can sign 23 prospects in 2019. Assuming by some chance (not going to happen) remainder of the class stays the same, we have 4 spots remaining.

At this point, it is a safe bet to add Hill to the class, making our 20th commit. That will solidify our secondary for 2019. With Bush out of the picture, we are not recruiting any other DB's to my knowledge, unless someone flicks a cigarette into the giant half couch half diesel filled dumper called LSU and we can somehow nap Hampton.

I think we sign atleast one more linebacker. The staff may be throwing the Hail Mary here and hoping at least one of Crouch, To'oto'o, or Bogle (he may be a DE) jumps on board.

The final two or three (if we whiff on our LB) I think are Best Player Available spots. That list of players would be Wright (OT), Crouch (RB/LB), To'oto'o (LB), Bogle (LB/DE), Charles Moore (DE), Taulia (QB), Maurice Hampton (DB), Curry (WR), Anderson (DE), Payton (WR), Knox (WR), Pettway (LB), etc...

You guys might find this spreadsheet interesting... The ratings may not all be up to date. And yes I do know how to format on excel however this thing is constantly changing and correctly the formatting every time I make a change is a pain.

Once again, all this is just my opinion...VN - 1.png

Even if we get to 25, only 22 can be guys we have or are currently recruiting. The last 3 would have to be unrecruited or grad transfers.

To'oto'o, Curry, Anderson and Moore. Supposedly Anderson and Moore are potential flips. Especially Moore.

If Harris has grade problems as it's being said then him and Cox are two. Moore and Anderson would probably bump a DE commit that is lower than one or both of them. To'oto'o is one we have a realistic place to land. I doubt Curry or Bogle end up here but Wright,Crouch,Hill,Anderson,Moore and To'oto'o are ones we have legitimate shots at.

I would be very happy with these 3!! Wright and Crouch are my two Special Santa Christmas presents! However, I've heard that they could get up to 25 if they got really "NCAA legally" creative. Can't remember if that was from Volquest or 247.

I’m hearing Roman Harrison is the odd man out here...? I would really like to get Crouch wright, and Jaydon Hill. That would easily be a top ten class IMo
