*** 2017 Recruiting ***

Really? I had to go to the 2nd page of 2017 recruiting targets to find a DT? Are we just doing away with the position?

 
So who are the guys that we think we have a decent shot at for 2017? Or is it too early to tell? Seems like a lot offers have gone out over the past few weeks.

I know about the Calabasas crew and I think that Colbert/McQuitty seem high on us.

 
Riley under performs again, starting early?.........what a concept.

One of the top classes in the past 15 years. Your standards are questionable.....But what's new
2016 is a solid class, enough to win the B1G West.

However, I see three problems with this class. (1) They missed late on 4-5 big prospects that they could not close earlier. This prevented them from going to their plan B guys, besides Engelhaupt. (2) In-state recruiting was very poor this year. Missed on Bubak and Fant. Never offered Manchigiah. (3) DL recruitment was garbage. We did get two DE which is good, but we needed some top-end pass rushers and reload on DT. However, we were never really in with anyone period (let alone elite talent).

I definitely like the class. The secondary in particular will be a strength going forward, for sure. OL is another area of strength in this class, and they got their QB and RB.

You have to create interest for recruits. One offer after how poor our DL recruiting was last cycle doesn't cut it. As usual, Hank Hughes right on time.
