2013 Current Commits/Targets (UPDATED)

Lots of updates in the OP. Let me know if anyone has anything that should be added. By my count, we have 32 OVs remaining coming into this weekend. Ideally, we would have a couple OVs remaining after NSD because that would allow us to host a late signee for an OV if needed.

Looks like we just got an opening for an official visit. Apparently Kamara has officially decided not to visit us from what I saw on his thread. Do you think this is something to worry about or is it just a rumor that is falsely based

He was never scheduled to visit this weekend. He's scheduled to visit next weekend.

I wish the media would show video interviews from the airport after OV like they did a few years ago. That was always fun to read everyone trying to read facial expressions.

Has anyone seen the Carr kid play out of White Station? Looks super soft and unathletic to me. Anyone else think different? I was hoping that a 6'6 280 4* DE would be a good get but it does not look like that per his hudl highlights.

I know everyone has a right to their own opinion but starting an account and bashing a recruit seems fishy.

GBO!

Not bashing it just makes me wonder how we eval talent I have watched all of our recruits highlights. I was expecting Carr to be dominate because of his size but I was very disappointed per hudl.

Given the fact that Nick Saban and many others are going after Carr, I am going to go on a limb and say you should not quit your day job.

Does anyone else wish the two Knoxville kids signed elsewhere? They may eventually become role players, but with all the defects we could really use these scholarships for Defense!

I assume Jones keeps them in order to prevent burning local bridges

Defense is not any more of a need than wr and ol. With Hunter, CP, and Zach Rogers leaving Pig and Dallas as the only 2 wrs that saw signifigant playing time last year. Then, on the OL we will likely be losing all but Marcus Jackson after this year, and we did not sign any OL last year.

Our Oline will have 4 or 5 recruits added to the depth this class. Next year you will see CBJ sign 4 or 5 Olinemen.

Defense Tackle and Defensive End will see 4-5 signed this class and next year you will see CBJ load up on the Dline.

WR class is almost full. I think they either take North or one other.

On the current roster, you have 7 scholarship WRs, one of whom was a walk-on this time last year. They need 12.

There are 10 offensive linemen on the current roster. 4 of whom are will be Seniors, one of whom will be an All-World NFL-caliber Junior and flight risk. The team needs 15 offensive linemen, and they usually take two years to develop.

So, no, I don’t wish those two die-hard, VFLs should look around so that we can get some REALLY AWESOME TALENT that makes it ALMOST through one full school year before completely failing out of college.

Excuse me but I'm confused on the math. If we have 68 wouldn't the maximum we could sign be 17? 68 + 17 equals the maximum 85 right?

5 are already in. We will have to clear 5 more spaces to sign 27.
