The breakdown of this class reveals that Coach Bennett has done what every coach claims to do, but rarely does: pull in a balanced class with an emphasis on positions of need.

QUARTERBACKS
Ricky Joe Meeks
Chris Phillips

RUNNING BACKS
Richuel Massey
Fred Turner

WIDE RECEIVERS
Blake Warren
Jaymond Cleveland

OFFENSIVE LINEMEN
Justin Boren
Bryan Turner
Kenard Burley
Caleb Peveto
Ben Poynter

DEFENSIVE LINEMEN
Desmond Jones
Lucky DeLay
Jordan Newman

LINEBACKERS
Zach Hall
Cory Muse

DEFENSIVE BACKS
Ervin McGee
C.D. Moss

With the remaining scholarships, we need 1 tight end, 1 or 2 defensive tackles, 1 or 2 safeties and another couple of linebackers. Although I'll gladly take another big nasty offensive lineman.

I can't wait until signing day!

Great list. Does anyone know if Coach Bennett wants to play any of them as true freshmen, or if he wants to redshirt the whole class?

I want two big ( ok maybe not huge given Coaches D-scheme ) D-tackles.
I still think they need to be 285 to 295.

Love what I read about this years class and Go Coaches,

BUS, you're being generous. I want them (and I want 3 of them, actually) in the 6'4", 310-330 range.

But I'll take your guys, too.

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth -- and I want my two front teeth to be big nasty SOBs who weigh 300 and can bench press an old Ford pickup and would start a fight with their moms because, well, fighting is just something fun to do.

Merry Christmas, PonyFans
