It was stated in another thread that with mid-year graduations and different combinations we can sign up to 31.

the limit is 28 signees but it is possible not definite that we could take some more at midterm and even more as greyshirts in Jan 2011. Only 25 can be admitted in August 2011

I'm pretty sure we were under our 25 man limit in 2010 because of the 6 non-qualifiers and the recruits who quit in August . I've heard one of those kids may come back at midterm(he left for family issues). We don't have to count this year midterms on the 2011 limit. I'm not exactly how many we can count back to 2010 but I've heard about 3 kids who might fill those spots. Could be more not sure. Then you can sign this years limit of 28 signees(25 of which can be admitted in August). You could also count greyshirts(admitted in January 2012) toward the 2011 Class. June Jones has always pushed these numbers-heck I'll throw out that eventually by August we might sign 32+-including Jan 2011, August 2011 and January 2012 admissions. A lot is going to depend on whether any of these kids are NCAA non-qualifiers. We've had 12 in the last 2 years so I'd assume it is likely

Is that the LB from Lumberton who left about the first week in August?

no he's enrolled at Lamar-I don't know for sure but I've heard that Forrest Hagar was given the option to return at mid-term to deal with a family issue. Since he left before school started if he came back we could count him for January 2011
