never got a good vibe with coleman anyways...though WVU was where most thought he'd go. plenty of other targets.
The first junior day will be a bit light but I think we have over 10 total commits by the end of the spring game, possibly more.
That would be 2/3 of the possible scollies available (according to what some are saying). I would be good with that as long as we get very quality guys.
I'm not talking 7 out of those 10 being 2-3 star guys.
Then again. Most of the guys we have offered are highly rated prospects.
I think the new coaches and some interesting offers will have a Hand in making this a special class.
Looks like we were cut from D'Andre Payne's list
I think that we will take closer to 25 than 15 to be honest. We always preach small classes but we have 14 seniors and I would bet 5-7 guys who won't be back this year. Add in next years attrition and the potential for a couple of guys to bolt (Marshall, Maddy, Jarrett) and I think this class will at least be 20.

yep... his new top 10 is reportedly (in alphebetical order): Clemson, FSU, GT, Maryland, Michigan, tOSU, Stanford, Tenn, Vandy, and UVA.

I also think the days of 2 and low 3 star commits are in the past, except for exceptional guys the coaches see.

If UT can actually learn to produce on the field, I am concerned about a new player in our recruiting footprint moving forward as they have appeal. Judging by how they typically underwhelm, I am not really worried yet, though.
