13 PP!

Curious to know who we are in the hunt for and who we are more likely to get.

I'm going to assume allen QB will look elsewhere now due to Stone.

Assuming he wants to play QB in college. Cole Beasley was a H.S. QB turned slot receiver and it worked out pretty well for him. Once upon a time college coaches coveted H.S. QBs who were typically the best athletes at their schools but at the college level would be used to help fill WR, DB & return specialist positions.

Never thought of that so maybe you are right. Very exciting all the less to have a 4* so long as Sonny can hold him. Obviously getting a really good OC will surely help.

I would be shocked if Preston didn't honor his commitment.

So any news here? I thought we could have a lot more than like 13 signees right? I thought the magical number was around 22-24?

Alum11 - most of last year’s transfers counted against this years total - I believe that number is about 7 or 8 (those who enrolled after May 31 - like Brandon Stevens etc.)

I remember the day when coaches took HS fullbacks and made them pretty good NG's.
