I saw on the ESPN top 300 for next year that they have 4 of the top 120 committed. There are candidates out there. This is like an exam where the questions get tougher. Butch's next test is to flip the kid committed to OM next year from Oxford.

Edit: actually 5 in the top 120. One must be Tony Connor's brother.

With only 3 scholarship RBs for next year, how do you think we will manage potential injuries? Are there any possible transfers or uncommitted players out there?

Same way as this year if Paulk doesn't come back, Evan Berry starts taking RB reps in practice.

I really wouldn't expect him to say that he has been in contact with CMU, considering he's probably been telling recruits that he wasn't speaking with them. The fact that CMU is waiting until after signing day to hire a coach leads me to believe that Azzani is their guy. I think Azzani and CMU were both doing Butch a favor by waiting until after signing day. I agree with the poster who said Azzani is one of the most replaceable coaches on staff. We won't miss a beat with Gillespie or Thigpen as recruiting coordinator and I don't think Azzani is a great WR coach. He's not bad, but he hasn't impressed me either.

I think Azzani Is a hell of a coach and recruiter

Finally catching up on today's action. I'm happier than a bird with a tater tot at Sonic right now. No NSD surprises other than the expected DR signing, and we filled virtually every need we had.

Time to turn to 2016. #1 objective: sign 2+ running backs.

Let's go ahead and get whatever 5 stars they have on their current roster to transfer to Mississippi Jucos and then take all of them when they're ready to transfer out of Juco as walk ons. They'll be really pissed when even their home state Jucos can't protect them from Butch mfing Jones.

Tonight Bob K asked Butch about OC announcement. Don't remember his exact words, but he said hopefully by Friday, along with the rest of the staff shuffling. Yeah...I know OC part was known, but I thought the shuffling part was interesting.

Title bumps and added responsibilities, probably. Maybe some co-titles. Will be interesting, for sure.

Not necessarily. UT met its needs, but the class speaks for itself.

Speaks for itself, indeed! This is two years in a row I've gotten to say this on NSD. I've been keeping up with several threads all day long, and never once saw the words, "diamond in the rough" like I read on here every year of Dooley's tenure. I'm so glad to have another recruiting class that speaks for itself!
