Who are we still recruiting?

Post by vagusnerve »

It looks as if Byers will verbal tomorrow for Oregon....
So how many spots are left and who are we recruiting?

I see Heyward, Simmons, Dawson, Jackson and Lee.

It looks like we have a good shot with Heyward and Simmons, I suggest one of the two will commit for the Ducks.
I think Lee and Dawson are probably gone, which is unfortunate, but we don't have a whole lot of room left anyways.

Then there is Jackson, and I'm wondering there is one spot for Byers and Jackson.

My guess is we end up with Simmons in addition to Byers to round out the class... and barring a secret verbal or an off the radar surprise we end it there.

What do you guys think?

Byers is ours. JHop's even saying so on the 247 SCe board.

From there, you missed the OL (name's escaping me at the moment)...

I feel VERY confident that Jackson and Simmons will be Ducks.

From there it's tough to say. U$C's top priority is OL and they only have a few more spots available as well, so it's certainly possible that Lee or Heyward won't even have a commitable offer come NSD and either of them could simply fall into our laps. We'd be insane not to accept.

No inside info, but I feel like, if the right players say yes (any of the aforementioned) then we'll take 4.

Gun to my head I'd say Simmons, Jackson, Byers and... Heyward (slightly better odds than Lee, Dawson or the OL)

It's the first I've heard of him. Another OL? I'm surprised.

Glaze, I agree we'd be crazy to turn down talent like Lee and Heyward and Simmons. But do we really have room for four more guys?

I think we'd really benefit from taking Byers, Heyward and Simmons. Those guys plus Ko'ai and Kamp and we'll have a good group of guys on the DL which we sorely need for the future.

Fisher is a **** Michigan de-commit who is visiting next weekend. One count that I have seen, indicates that the next commit will bring us to 85, but that does include a couple of current Ducks that had schollies in 2010 that were originally walk-ons.

Yeah, he looks like a beast.

With the schollie limits, you would think that means that we can take three more. Given the small size of next years class, I would be surprised with a greyshirt.

That sounds about right, two DLs and one wildcard.

So Byers for sure then.... plus two of Heyward, Simmons, Jackson, Dawson, Lee or Fisher?

Keep in mind that Ebert, Lyerla & probably Coleman are enrolling for spring so that opens up a few more

Even if they enroll early, there still has to be scholarships available to give anything over the 85 scholarship limit.

Well I know Chip gave some Schollys to walkons this year. So those will be back on the table and we always lose a couple of guys during the off season.

Yeah, i think that the 3-more schollies arrived at above includes two scholarships that were offered to walkons last year and the javes lewis scholarship.

I would imagine that we'll have at least one other player leave during the offseason, maybe more. But you'd want some schollies for next year too because i think we'll only have like 12 available.

Chip would boot three commits to get those guys. No way does he pass on any of those 3.

Chip wouldn't boot a solid commit to make room for another guy, that's not Chips ethics, he's got very strong character and leads by example for his players.

Agreed that doesn't sound like CK but we will have players leave this off season for what ever reason...so there is always some wiggle room.
