***2016 Recruiting***


Recommended Posts



Wow. Didn't realize it's been since August that I updated this. Time flies. Someone can let me know if I've missed someone.

We got another WR but the priority list looks exactly like it did three months ago.

Priority:
DT - Not much that is known.
DE - Unfortunately the same as DT.
OT - We're in really good shape at OG but are in dire need of tackles.
WR - Two small burners. Need at least one big yet.

-----------------------------------------

My guess at the number for each position. Commits are capitalized in red - others are targets.

QB - 1 - PATRICK O'BRIEN
RB - 1-2 - TRE BRYANT, Kingston Davis
WR - 3-4 - JD SPIELMAN, DERRION GRIM, Roddrick Bryant, CJ Riley, Clyde Leflore-Chriss, Diondre Overton, Stephen Sullivan, Freddie Pinder, Desmond Fitzpatrick
TE - 2 - JACK STOLL, Shaun Beyer
OT - 2-3 - Matt Farniok, Tremayne Anchrum, Alaric Jackson
OG/C - 2-3 - BRYAN BROKOP, JOHN RARIDON, BOE WILSON

DT - 2-3 -
DE - 2-3 - BEN STILLE, Mykelle McDaniel, Jordan Bonner (JUCO), Terrell Lucas
LB - 4-5 - QUAYSHON ALEXANDER, GREG SIMMONS, JoJo DOMANN, Isaiah Simmons, David Reese
CB - 2-3 - DICAPRIO BOOTLE, Maurice Chandler (JUCO), Lamar Jackson
S - 2-3 - MARQUEL DISMUKE, Eric Burrell, Nehemiah Augustus, Brandon Drayton, Markell Simmons (JUCO)

Current commits who probably won't sign - APHONSO THOMAS, WILLIAM JOHNSON (JUCO)

Damn. Usually I'm the sunshine pumper on recruiting, but it isn't looking too hot at the moment... lots of potential, but no results just yet. 16 commits with only 13 of those really being solid. Probably 25 spots we need to fill... just hope we don't start reaching late.

 

Edit : I saw Mav listed two questionable, and I said 3. IMO, Quayshon has been very questionable for a while. Took down his Nebraska commit tags on all social media and has been making other visits, and now we've started making new LB offers (I guess could just be a product of the William Johnson decision too).

Yeah, I'm not that sure about Alexander either. I don't think he's in quite the same boat as Thomas or Johnson because I think the coaches have changed their minds on those two. But it won't surprise me if Alexander doesn't end up here either.

Is Johnson because of grades?

I saw last night on Rivals recruiting rankings we have dropped dramatically. Oddly, we've dropped after these two big wins where it seems this team is turning around for the better. Anyone know why on Rivals ranking we went from like the 30's to the 50's?

Just a guess but perhaps Rivals is dropping us because we have not added recruits whereas many other programs have been picking up commits lately. I think our class is actually better with the RB switch to Bryant out of St Louis. He is much better than the TX kid. IMO. Light years better! Bigger, stronger and faster.
