Warrior10 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 We went through a list of guys who could maybe leave awhile back. Brokop, Avery Anderson, Eric Lee possibly if he gets jumped this year, Barnett, Maybe a RB? Maybe a Young TE that feels buried on depth chart? I can't remember who else we discussed. Can't see Lee going now, he's our 2nd best CB at the moment and the guy ahead of him is a SR. Some talk Darlington will focus on his coaching career after this year. I could see a guy like Antonio Reed slipping and going. Quote Link to comment

Decked Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Watching us close out this class will be interesting for sure. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 We need to find a way to fit 20 in this class. The way things are going we will not want to turn any of these youths away. ADS, for this class to get to 20 we will need 7-8 players to leave the program by next summer and 5 of them will have needed to leave by NSD. As of right now, we would only *have* to have 2 leave to get to 20. We have 15 open spots and can over-sign by 3. Now, we may choose to leave Reimers and Conrad (or others) on scholarship which would reduce the number of open spots but I don't see us putting that many walk-ons on scholarship to need 7-8 to leave.

My base number was 12-13. Hadn't realized we were up to 15 open spots? So why wouldnt we utilize those scholarships open on walk ons? The problem is their aren't many SR walk-ons currently to use them on. They should be going to underclassmen walk-ons. That's where it gets hard. Do you give it to them for this year then say no dice next year? Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) Word is we have been targeting 4 DBs in this class but now may be looking at five. I don't see how that works at 15 but that's the story. More speculation that we may pass on taking a QB this time around.

With the defensive change he might be kind of a fish out of water. Just throwing him out there. Quote Link to comment
HuskermanMike Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I know its not set in stone yet, but how many guys outside of Bookie are planning to enroll early? Quote Link to comment
TITANIC VS LUSITANIA Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Ok, we are loaded at skill positions; let's focus on linemen! 1 Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Ok, we are loaded at skill positions; let's focus on linemen! Sounds like we are only taking 1 more and it appears were zeroed in on Bleich. Not sure what else we can do on OL. I also think we are taking only 1 more DT. For that we are zeroed in on about 3 different guys that are studs. Be patient on the beef. Quote Link to comment
