Fending off other schools for recruits

It's outstanding that we have as many committs as we do. However, many of them have few if any offers besides SMU. I'm attributing this to the fact that JJ knows something that others don't. With that in mind, which of our recruits do you think we'll have to fight the hardest to keep as the year unfolds? I'm assuming that many if not all of our committs will gain interest as the season progresses.

Just my opinion, but I'm betting other schools try to steal Kaiser, Swope, O'Guinn, and Parks from us.
But one thing that Coach Jones and his staff have done really well is keeping a strong relationship with early commits.

If our recruits are indeed "under the radar" is there the possibility that they can jump to three or four star recruits during/after their senior season?

let's hope most of these guys have banner SR seasons and attract lots of attention and competition. If firm to their commitments, they may not get offers but would be nice to know they are being courted by others before signing day.

I bet few, if any, schools try to poach Bordano, because of the assumption that he's firmly committed because of his family connection.
As for the others, I agree exactly with TexasScout: Kaiser, Swope, O'Guinn, and Parks

it kind of worries me since about half of our commits seem to be "soft verbals"
