Been bullish on our recruiting classes in recent years despite rankings

However, it's hard to ignore concerns with this signing period. Not only did we have defections and a small class, but the overall roster is in need of some quality depth.

There are some really good players committed to us in this class, just not enough. When you rely on player development, recruiting is absolutely critical.

I have never beat the portal drum but I can't see how we don't turn to the portal for DE, LB, DB, RB, and backup QB this year. Yeah we have some young guys in those positions but they need to develop and we need depth.

Until folks announce TP, this class is extremely low on openings - we only have a handful that exhaust eligibility.

Doesn’t scholarship number go up to 105 this year?

1)You dont need 105 to field a quality team. You dont even need 85.

2)for the first 1-3 years those 86-105 are going to be filled by walkons who are already on the team. The first year they will have to cut existing walkons because roster size is being drastically reduced. 3)The further you get down the list the more those guys are going to be prone to leave for a bump up in the depth chart at some program in need.

and 4) the move to 105 I believe occurs well after decision dates.

It may, but if you count our walk in’s, we are well above 105
