Update: Current Florida commit 4 Sharif Denson will take an official visit to Alabama October 8th when they play Texas A&M. Definitely a recruitment to watch out for. #GoGators #RollTide #RTR #UF

WE have 18... so I'm guessing... 23-25 this year...



From what I understand we can sign as many as we want this year…just have to adhere to the 85 scholarship limit.

Edit:The bottom is my response to 81s post…not sure what I did?

I would love to see another big time receiver on signing day .

It depends on how big this class is going to be. If we flip Keely and Perkins and get Smith, Russaw, Collins and McClain not sure if we have room for more flips. If we miss, yes but hoping we get these six and call it a day at 24.

Sorry if you or others have said this and I've forgotten -- is it a given that Smith and Russaw will play together in college? Even as high school teammates it seems like many 'package deals' don't end up as such on signing day. Of course I hope they'll both play for the good guys.

Package deals are rare, and this is a rare case. All I've heard is that they will play for same team.

What are the chances for landing Russaw? Zac Etheridge is recruiting him hard and they have hometown ties (Russaw grew up in Troy, I believe, before transferring to Carver). Zac is really pushing that hometown angle.

Jalen hale just visited and is returning for another. Does he fit the bill?

We are definitely trending towards the higher end.

Only reason I brought up multiple flips, is because lot of highly rated players are already committed. I do think after few more commits in next few weeks, I think Bama will get more selective.... as season goes on.

Wouldn't signing 28-30 require some further attrition, or will some back count to another class? Seems to be a rather high number to me.

So you think CNS will start pulling some of the committable offers back...?

Committed to other teams.

With the WR/ATH group we brought in last year, WR might not be as big a priority this year.

I did not pay much attention to Keely since he was committed to ND but after taking a look at his sophomore video (link below) I am drooling. This kid is incredibly long (says he has a 7'0 wingspan) and runs like a deer. So hoping we get him to flip.

I know I'm biased, but why in the world would a decent OT flip from UGA to the barn with the dumpster fire that is going on there right now?

Remember the NCAA temporarily changed the scholarship limitations from 25 to 32. Schools are going to take advantage of that, sign big classes, and figure out the numbers.

The change flew a bit under the radar.

This and a quick path to playing time.
