2015 class

Best case scenario if we sign five:
guards - Barefield and Gilder
forwards - Blackshear and McDuffie
center - Thomas

Barefield is solid. I think Blackshear and Gilder are the top priorities of our uncommitted targets. I'm cautiously optimistic about those two.

Don't think we get blackshear. McDuffle might be a better shot, but we did come at him late, so who knows. I think we have a pretty good shot at Admon. That may help Eli make up his mind.

Both Gilder and Thomas go to aTm on a visit soon, right? Hope they leave C.S. without committing together.

I agree. A&M is the school I'm worried about.

You continue to trust the Godfather. We are starting year 3 and no one expected to be this far this fast.

Yes of course. What recruits are next on the list? Not doubting LB at all, I am just the type that is always looking forward.

We will definitely be going down the board in regards to scholarship offers if that happens Godfather or not.

I still believe the ultimate recruit is Ferguson. From everything I know, which isn't much, we have a really good chance to land him. Absolute stud. BTW, he's 2016.

I was going to ask about him earlier but decided not to. So I take it from your post no new news?

Nothing that I've heard. I'm not sure about the PP situation. Last I heard he was still there. He's an elite 5-star talent. Rivals has him ranked #10 in the class but it's hard for me to believe there are 9 better players in that class.

If we signed this class........... I may explode.

I've really only seen 2 in the top 15 for extended periods, Josh Jackson is the real deal as is Kobi Simmons. I want to see Fergusson more, I saw him twice and he was the most explosive player for PP. But he would go long stretches without having any sort of impact too. I'd like to see the consistency improve to where he's a threat anytime he touches the ball.
