Re: 2019 Recruiting List
It's amazing to me that we haven't even started conference play in 2018, and our recruiting class is almost full. That early signing period and the coaches adjustments to the recruiting calendar have made for an interesting dynamic.
So how many scholarships will we be offering to the 2019 class? Will we hold any for the highly ranked players that fall through the cracks after the initial signing period due to the numbers games that Power 5 programs have to deal with? We have 14 seniors on the roster and I'm not sure if all are on scholarship. Furthermore, there are always some who leave the program prior to completing their senior year of eligibility.
We have 19 commits on the list, and there often are individuals who haven't made public announcements that could be in the fold. Moreover, some on the list are preferred walk-ons.
So during improvement week, what are your thoughts on the class and how many more targets do we have out there? What are the positions of need versus what is this class bringing in? (I find it interesting that Pupungatoa and Weir are the only senior offensive linemen, yet the coaches are bringing in five offensive linemen thus far. Yes, you need to bring in extras as they don't always pan out for various reasons. we also brought in five last year too. However, I suspect that we are offering more than two schollies to the 2019 class.)

Re: 2019 Recruiting List
I let it percolate for a couple of days, but have not received any confirmation on Bo. However, I did switch him to the commitment list with a combination of factors. The verbal commitment was for a SD offensive lineman - he's the only o-lineman offer from the state that we had still listed in the offer column. The discrete tweets/likes on Bo's twitter account. (I love the Bo Jackson baseball tweet from Jackrabbit_Illstrtd!) Finally, the Bison Forum discussion about Bo becoming a Jackrabbit. Bo is the type of lineman that the Bison have developed for years. Big, relatively local talent that the Power5 programs overlook. It seams like every year they have an All-American in the trenches that fits the mold. Kudos to them for being so successful with that strategy.
Until I see differently, welcome to Brookings Mr. Donald!Leave a comment:
