BigRedBuster Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 How many WRs do you think we take in this class? McQuitty is in and I'm pretty sure KJJ will be too. It should be a larger class this year. Are we thinking 4-6? We have some more offers out to some pretty impressive kids. Could be a very special WR class. 1 Quote Link to comment
girlknowsfootball Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 We need, and will take 4-5 receivers. We wanted 4 last year and lost out on 2 late so we need to make that up this year. When Glenn Irons and Jaraiah Tolbert left the program it left us down 2. We needed to make that up in last year's recruiting class and missed, so this year we take 4-5. This fall we have Westerkamp, Reilly, Morgan, Moore, Pierson El, K Wiliams, Alston, Grim, Spielman. They want 11-12 scholarship players at this positionand have 9 on the roster this fall. With Mike Riley, his Receivers have historically struggled with pulled groins/hamstrings, and other nagging injuries. Plus they like to run 2 teams in practice and need the guys to get the reps. We graduate 3 so we go into next year with 6... They will take 4-5. 1 Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 3-4 IMO 4, at minimum. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 We have 3 Sr's Westercamp, Moore, Reilly Returning after this season we have 7 with only 1 Sr in DPE Pierson El Morgan Jr Alston Darlington Spielman Grim Keyan Williams Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I said 3-4 awhile ago which I believe is about what some recruiting guys said as well. I'd be very surprised if we take more than four. Simply too many other positions that need guys as well. Plus, then you get unbalanced - if you lose 4-5 guys in one year it makes it tough. Rather have about 3 each year. 1 Quote Link to comment

But we might take a fifth WR is he's a JUCO. Quote Link to comment

Rather have about 3 each year. You won't lose 4-5 guys in one year because some will redshirt and some will play. We only took 2 last year so if you take 5 and 2 redshirt it makes it more spaced out.

With all the groin and hamstring pulls these guys get, we'll run into the problem we had last fall with not enough guys to split into 2 teams to practice. Quote Link to comment

And one from last year's class redshirted while some from next year's class will play. So you could still lose 5 in a year. Quote Link to comment
girlknowsfootball Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Still think they will take at least 4. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I think they'll definitely take four if they can get four that they really like. And with McQuitty and (hopefully) KJJ, they're a long ways toward four that they like. Quote Link to comment

I don't think so. He played in 5 games, which is way over the threshold to get a medical redshirt. I guess we could try to get him another year, but I wouldn't classify it as a "really good chance".
