Mavric Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 What is our number with potential oversigning for this year again? I thought I heard it was 18. This class with attrition could possibly get to 20. I pray we get it to 20 Well I thought I heard 16 so even 18 was pleasant to hear. 20 sounds amazing. Right now we have 15 open spots which means we can sign 18. Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 Last year Riley kept under-shooting the number we could sign and people assumed he was playing a numbers game with recruits - making it look like we didn't have as many spots as we actually did. Then it turned out that's all we were really shooting for. Hopefully that's not the case this year. Quote Link to comment

famoustitles Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 How does the 3 over sign rule work mav? I thought if you over sign by 3 you had until the following school year to make room. Quote Link to comment

I think it's until June but it might be the next school year. So technically we could sign 18 this class as it stands but would then have to process 3 underclassmen by June or august?

I'm fairly sure it's June when the incoming freshmen start to show up. But yes, right now we would be allowed to sign 18. They would have to leave the program for whatever reason. They can't be forced out but there are usually 3-4 that leave for some reason - transfer, graduate (don't return for a fifth year), etc. - just like we saw this year. Quote Link to comment

Last year I was disappointed by not trying to get a few more. Not sure I expect them to go above this year either. 15 is tough to see with the success we are seeing on the trail so far.
