13 MD WR Paul Harris (UT commit 7/17/12)

Yep, no more OL this class. I thought we might only take 1, which is always bad. THankfully we finally decided to offer Rodgers.

Now hopefully Christian Morris signs with you guys. I've been hearing that his interest in UCLA is somewhat legit, and I don't want him in our conference, lol.

Morris is not signing with us. We took a 6'10" OT from Colorado instead.

We think we have a silent ol which means we are done on the oline. Morris is down to ucla and Nebraska, I believe
 
And I hate that you stole Ramsey from us. But if you fill up and don't have room for Harris, Goodman, and Hatcher, then that's good news.
 
USC now has 13 commits...I think we land Harris this month.

Make that 14 now with Vanderdoes.

Assume they take 3 more. Probably 1 DT, 1 LB, and 1 DB (Ramsey). Even if they can find a way to get to 18, I think you're right that they're probably done at WR. Woods is the only WR they'll lose after this season and with the reduced numbers, I think they stop at 3 WR in this class.

Logically, this makes sense; however, Kiffin is anything but logical or rational when it comes to recruiting. Public perception plays a HUGE role in his antics. I would not be surprised to see him round out the class with more skill players just to say he assembled (on paper) the highest rated class ever (in terms of average star ratings).

True.
 
Says he will be an EE

If Harris is an EE then that's big for us on two levels:

1) Just don't see how USC can take him now. They've got a maximum of 4 spots left, have already taken 3 WRs, and lead for Hargraves, Ramsey, and a handful of others. I'm honestly not sure how they can take Ramsey, but that's beside the point.

2) If he does in fact end up a Vol, his being on campus for Spring Practice makes him very likely to be able to contribute in 2013 given his size/speed combo, and with a strong likelihood that we lose at least one of the Big 3 that will be big.

They only have 2 DBs committed right now and will lose 6 senior DBs after this season (according to this: USCFootball.com - USC Trojan Football Scholarship Distribution). DBs and LBs will be the focus of however many spots they have left.

You are assuming kiffin won't encourage someone to look around if top talent can't fit. He would tell monte to look around to get another top player

Damn yesterday was crazy. I knew Falah was committing, but Falah, Rodgers, AND Vanderdoes? :rock:

Ramsey will be committing on Monday, then we will only have three spots left between the following:

Willis
Redfield
Goodman
Hatcher
Mathis
...
I don't really think Hargreaves makes it to USC. I think that was a ploy by Kiffin to put pressure on others.

IMO USC is definitely holding spots for Willis and Redfield. And once those two commit, I think Goodman is shut out. That means the last spot would be between Hatcher (who has told USC commits that he wants to be at USC) and Mathis.

If Larue decommits, then I'm curious to see who gets in.

Must be a nice problem to have. Hopefully you guys fill up soon so we can get some guys to come our way.

In the event that you have too many superstars trying to commit, please ask them to reference this:
